In all, 61 per cent of businesses who voted by number were in favour of the BID continuing in Brighouse until 2029, which amounted to a ‘yes’ vote of 82 per cent by rateable value – the measurement of business size, says the organisation.
The vote means a second BID term will run from April 1 to March 2029, with three objectives through which the programme of investment will be focused and delivered.
Lesley Adams, Co-Chair of the Brighouse BID, welcomed the result.
“I am acutely aware that the levy paid, no matter what amount, is an additional cost on hard-pressed business owners but we will work as hard as we can to ensure by ring-fencing the money – in Brighouse, for Brighouse – each and every business sees the benefit of the BID.”
