The Board is a collection of the Yorkshire Coasts independent, national and public sector operators.  The Yorkshire Coast BID directors are volunteers and do not receive any remuneration for their position. 

All directors are asked to provide area and sector information and advice and are committed to the coastal objectives to promote, protect and support the entire Yorkshire Coast.

Where there are vacancies, any BID member can apply to join the BID board.  When a formal application has been received for a vacant position, members will be informed so the vetting process can be completed within 30 days.  You can apply to become a director by completing the application form here.

The Board meets monthly and copies of board minutes are available after they have been approved.

BID Board Chair

The chair was elected at the first meeting of the current board members in July 2019.  Similar to board directors, the chair must be a levy payer and can serve for an initial period of two years before a new vote is called.

The chair can only cast a vote in order to break a tie.

BID Board Directors

All directors who apply to be on the board are vetted to ensure they are a member, have paid their levy within 3 months of the bills being issued and promise to not only represent their area and sector, but also, agree to maintaining the overall health of the BID company. 

If multiple people have applied for a single available position, BID members are asked to vote on whom they wish to have represent them.  The business with the majority votes is then appointed to formally join the board and will serve for an initial period of two years before needing to reapply.
