It’s a YES for a the Cobham Business Improvement District!

It’s a YES for a the Cobham Business Improvement District!

Ensuring a thriving Cobham

Cobham businesses today voted to back a business improvement district (BID) that will help drive over £800,000 of new investment in the village over the next 5 years.

Developed for businesses by businesses the BID will work hard to ensure Cobham continues to be a successful, vibrant high street enabling Cobham to keep the flags flying, the Christmas lights twinkling, the customers coming and so much more.

The business plan was supported by a majority of the business ratepayers in the proposed BID area who voted, both by aggregate rateable value (95% voting YES) and numbers voting (91% voting YES) to set up a BID in Cobham.

Sarah Sharp, Manager of Waitrose in Cobham and the BID Task Group Chair said: ‘Thank you to the Cobham businesses for backing the BID proposal. We set out an inspiring and innovative business plan that builds on the commitment and passion we all have to make Cobham an even better place to do business in the future. We look forward to delivering for the village and the businesses in the BID area.’

Councillor Alistair Mann, Chairman of the Cobham Chamber of Commerce said: ‘The Chamber started the BID process to give the village the chance to build on the brilliant work of Chamber members and volunteers who have made Cobham such a great place to do business. Id like to recognise all the hard work – and financial contributions - of Chamber Members over the years and look forward to supporting the launch of the Business Improvement District later this year.’

Councillor Robin Stephens, Portfolio Holder for Enterprise for Local Economy said:‘The BID result is great news for Cobham. We were pleased to back the businesses and Cobham Chamber of Commerce with funding to help develop the BID proposal as part of our work to ensure our town and village centres continue to thrive. The BID is a great example of how we work with our high streets to develop new ideas and sustainable sources of funding in partnership with our local areas. Thank you to everyone who voted - we look forward to working with the Cobham BID to ensure the village remains a great place to live, shop and work.’
