Polygons of the boundaries of commercial development corporations (SDC) present on the territory of the City of Montreal. [Business Development Companies (SDC)] (https://montreal.ca/sujets/societes-de-developpement-commercial) are non-profit organizations that contribute to economic development and the development of commercial arteries in a given area. An SDC brings together shops, service companies and professional offices in a specific territory. The City of Montreal has 26 SDCs spread across its territory. All businesses located in the district of an SDC are automatically members of the SDC. A contribution is mandatory according to the budget adopted by the SDC annually. This contribution ensures the maintenance of the SDC, which can in turn organize activities, events and carry out projects aimed, in particular, at social, cultural and economic development.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
