Decision details

This project will broadly run across two phases. Phase 1 will initially focus on determining whether or not CDC wishes to support renewing Chichester BID for a further term of five years. The subsequent work to be undertaken in Phase 2 of the project will depend on the outcome of Phase 1.

Expected outcome:

-        A decision regarding the future of the BID;

-        The completion of the BID ballot process; and

-        Alternative delivery mechanism if the BID is not successful.

(2)  That the Ballot Holder (Chief Executive) be instructed to hold a BID ballot.

RECOMMENDED TO COUNCIL

That the Leader of the Council be authorised to vote in accordance with Cabinet’s decision in relation to the ballot to renew the BID.
