Baseline Statements

Baseline Statements for the Reading Central & Abbey Quarter Business Improvement District (BID) 2024 – 2029

As a BID we must deliver services that are in addition to those provided by our statutory partners, Reading Borough Council and Thames Valley Police.  To demonstrate this, we establish a ‘baseline statement’ that is effective on the day of the ballot, setting out what services are provided by those partners and allowing the BID to pledge additional support. 

Details of the baseline statements from Reading Borough Council and Thames Valley Police delivered in the two Reading BIDs areas are detailed below:
