GOVERNANCE<br />
The <strong>York</strong> <strong>Business</strong> Improvement District (<strong>BID</strong>) is an independent, not<br />
for profit company that is solely accountable to its members. The<br />
company is governed by a voluntary board of directors and advisors<br />
who provide strong governance, strategic direction and ensure<br />
oversight and scrutiny of the delivery of the <strong>BID</strong> business plan.<br />
The Board is made up of influential representatives from the key business sectors, partner organisations<br />
and levy paying businesses in the city centre. Board positions are refreshed every two years as per the<br />
company articles of association and elections ratified during an annual general meeting which typically<br />
takes place in June each year.<br />
An Operating Agreement, which includes the Council’s Baseline service commitments, has been agreed<br />
with City of <strong>York</strong> Council. A copy can be found at www.theyorkbid.com. The Company shall meet<br />
quarterly with the City of <strong>York</strong> Council, as the Billing Authority, to monitor service delivery, levy collection<br />
and financial management issues.<br />
