The Enniskillen "Business Improvement District" campaign culminates later - as it's either 'yea' or 'nay' from local business.

"BID stands for Business Improvement District - and essentially it's about businesses coming together in an area and saying: look our town is good, but let's make it better!"

So said Noelle McAloon, co-ordinator with the Enniskillen BID project during their vociferous campaign of awareness-building and vote-winning.

The BID project for the County Fermanagh town will either grind to a halt later or get the thumbs up and roll on with its exciting plans for local business in the area.

The scheme would see local enterprise make its own decisions on the commercial future of the town. Pooling resources and setting the agenda on what's important to them in bettering their current situation.

Final tallies are now being counted - with the result to be revealed at five o'clock.
