The document summarizes a business briefing about establishing a Business Improvement District (BID) in Exeter, England. The Exeter BID would collect levies from local businesses to fund improvements to attract more visitors, shoppers, and investment. It would deliver a cleaner, safer, and more vibrant city center. Specifically, the BID would have an annual budget of 贈735,000 collected through levies of 1.5% of rateable values from most businesses, and 1.0% from others. It would fund area-based grants, celebrate unique city center areas, and devolve power to businesses to direct spending.
