SDC Cabinet

The Cabinet in Stratford upon Avon District Council pay scant regard to the needs of the businesses in the Town.  As you can see from the list below they nearly all represent other wards in the larger District.

When Businesses complain to the Council they are referred to the BID by the Cabinet.  Superficially this sounds like a good idea but SDC, along with the Town Council and other vested interests sit on the BID Board.  

It's essentially a way of kicking business owners' issues into the long grass.  Have you ever considered why parking is free in Alcester and other towns whilst it's so expensive in Stratford.  Just have a look at the list below
