Question 3 of 6

Match the description to the type of ballot: Alteration Ballot

A

this is a ballot held to introduce a new set of Proposals, most commonly considered as a ‘new’ BID.

B

this is a continuation, on a like-for-like basis (same BID area, same BID Body, same Levy Rules etc.), of current Arrangements for a further identical term. The ballot must be held within the existing term of the BID.

C

this is the re-presentation of BID Proposals following the Secretary of State overturning a ballot declaration, due to a Challenge to the ballot result being upheld.

D

BID Arrangements may be altered where they contain a provision to that effect. No such provision may alter the BID area or the BID levy (if that causes anyone not previously liable to pay, or increases the liability of any party) and any such alteration would require a ballot to effect the change.
