The Nottingham BID Projects
Raising the Standards on Business Services
“It is important for the Police and City Council to understand our issues and requirements and vice versa. Our collective strength under the BID will become a powerful lobby group for the industry for positive change.”
“The BID will be a positive representation of the licensed trade in Nottingham. If we mirror the examples of other BIDs, businesses are destined to see a sizeable decrease in our collective problems
90% of businesses confided that external issues have affected trade over the previous two years, losing out to growing district centres and other towns and cities.
Over the next 5 years we propose to:-
- Enhance the Best Bar None Award scheme, funding annual fees for businesses within the BID area, and subsidise training and Award winners’ incentives.
- Develop the existing Pubwatch scheme into a Citywatch scheme for all licensed sectors within the City with the ability to issue banning orders and Acceptable Behaviour Contracts to large groups, students and individual troublemakers.
- Provide a bespoke business website to share information and good ideas.
- Develop stronger partnerships with the City Council and Police negotiating service improvements and assisting them with performance targets.
The provisional cost allocated to improve Business Services over the next 5 years is £136,500.
The effectiveness of the projects undertaken will be measured using the following key performance indicators:-- Business Surveys.
- Website hits.
- Baseline agreements with the City Council and Police.
