FOI request (FOI-80403670)

I would like to request details of any funds used by the authority in relation to the establishment of a business improvement district regardless, of the outcome of this spend.

I am interested in monies spent hiring consultants to write a business plan and carry out a ballot as well as funds spent on any feasibility studies which may have not, or not yet, resulted in a business improvement district being established.

In the event of funds having been spent I would also like to know the name of the area in question, X Town Centre or Y Industrial Estate for example. In the event of a business improvement district being established the only information I require is the name of the organisation.
