About Gateway Marietta
Established in June 2014, the Gateway Marietta CID’s goal is to encourage revitalization and redevelopment of Delk Road, South Marietta Parkway and Franklin Gateway. The Gateway Marietta CID is a collection of commercial property owners who agree to invest their own money back in the area by levying an additional tax on themselves to be spent on projects that benefit the entire community. Conveniently located just three miles north of The Battery/Cumberland area, within the City of Marietta, the Gateway Marietta CID is thriving because of our focus on infrastructure improvements, beautification, and public safety.
Project Highlight: Gateway Marietta CID Master Plan
The Gateway Marietta CID Master Plan envisions leveraging the district's strategic geographic location and strong community partnerships to create a cohesive, safe, and vibrant community. Our vision is to build upon the area’s rich culture while evolving into a distinctive destination with a strong community feel, characterized by active and attractive spaces.

The result was 1984 legislation incorporated into the state’s constitution allowing for CIDs.
