The Board of Directors for Torbay Town Centres Company (TTCCo), as promoters of this scheme, will be legally and financially responsible for the Brixham Business Improvement District for its lifetime.
A paid BID Co-ordinator will be appointed by the TTCCo to deliver the scheme. The recruitment process will be conducted and managed by the TTCCo in collaboration with Brixham Town Council.
It is however, very important that those who are paying the levy for this scheme have a direct say in how the scheme is managed on an operational basis.
A BID Steering Group (BSG) will be established to represent the interests of the BID Levy Payers (BLP), the
TTCCo Board and Torbay Council.
The BSG will comprise: -
- Representatives of the Brixham Bid Levy Payers (BLP) representing sectors and geography within the BID area (elected annually)
- The Chairman to be elected from one of the BLP representatives
- At least 1 Director of TTCCo
- One representative from Brixham Town Council
- The Chief Executive of TTCCo
- The Brixham BID Co-ordinator.
The BSG will have no legal or financial powers, but will influence the delivery of the BID.
This group will meet on a regular basis to monitor progress of, and guide the overall delivery of the Plan. The BLP members will be invited to bring representations from their fellow businesses to the BSG. All these activities will be reported to the TTCCo Board of Directors for ratification.
Subject to the ratification of the TTCCo Board of Directors, the BID Steering Group will have discretion, when necessary, to transfer funds between budgets in order to achieve best value or maximise efficiency, provided it does not compromise the delivery of the overall BID Business Plan.
The BSG will be set up following a positive BID ballot. The BSG will be responsible for ensuring that the Business Plan is delivered, setting performance targets and for liaising with, and representing the views of levy payers and holding the TTCCo to account for the delivery of the BID.
