We will be aiming to keep the cost to local businesses to a minimum. The cost of the levy will depend on the cost of the improvements that are agreed as a priority. The amount of businesses that get behind the BID and the amount of external funding we secure will also have an impact on the cost of the levy. The levy is calculated as a percentage of the business premises' rateable value. If we do not take steps to care for the town, nobody will. How will you vote?
