Llandudno SRA
A Community Improvement District (CID), previously known as a Special Rating Area (SRA) represents a designated geographical area where property owners voluntarily agree to contribute additional rates beyond their standard municipal payments. These extra contributions fund supplementary services that complement, rather than substitute, the existing municipal services, all delivered according to an approved Business Plan.
Local authorities continue to provide essential services including water supply, electricity, sanitation, and waste collection. However, a CID creates an official framework that enables communities to finance and oversee additional services aimed at enhancing their local area. It allows property owners to pool their resources towards common objectives, creating a more appealing and secure environment. This collaborative approach opens doors to community-led initiatives, whilst fostering enhanced collective ownership and community pride.
The establishment of a CID emerges from within the community itself, usually spearheaded by a committed group of residents or local stakeholders who share a vision of developing a cleaner, safer, and more unified neighbourhood. In 2015, the Llandudno residents formed a Special Rating Area and elected a board of directors from within the community to manage it. The SRA is a registered non-profit company.
