Leading the BID industry
POSTED ON: 29/04/2020
Last month, British BIDs wrote to the Secretary of State to request BID levy relief measures from government during COVID-19.
British BIDs (Bb) and the BIDs in England all want certainty from the government. The submitted letter can be viewed here.
As we continue to monitor this, we wanted to share recent correspondence on this issue.
Question asked by Daniel Zeichner(Cambridge)
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he plans to grant Business Improvement Districts' levy payers 100 percent levy relief during the covid-19 outbreak.
Answered by: Mr Simon Clarke (Minister with responsibility for High Streets)
The Government is committed to supporting Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) and recognises the important role they play in allowing local businesses to work together to shape and improve their high streets and towns, and that they will be even more important in the recovery phase from the current crisis.
Through the Coronavirus Act 2020, the Government has also included new measures to support BIDs: we have introduced a delay to BID ballots due to take place between now and 31 December 2020 until March 2021. This will ensure that they are conducted in a safe and effective way.
We know that a number of BIDs and local authorities are currently in the process of issuing their bills to BID members, and we would hope that they can come to sensible arrangements on charging given the current circumstances.
At present, businesses within a BID will still need to pay into their BID to ensure the BID body can still provide vital support to their local business communities.
We are exploring other ways we can support BIDs directly and intend to bring forward further plans very soon. Businesses can also benefit from the substantial package of support announced by the Chancellor.
