They employed the services of Unique Clean, a Colne based business, to begin a programme of street cleaning on Skipton Road and Hartley Square to both remove chewing gum and brighten up the pavements.
The “Fresh Lick of Paint” scheme has also got off to a flying start. Up to £10,000 (helping up to 10 businesses) has been made available each year until 2023 to redecorate the exteriors of up to businesses within the BID area.
