Croydon's Executive Mayor is currently involved in decisions on BID renewal and new rules for accountability.

Croydon Council's Cabinet delegated the decision on the Croydon Business Improvement District (BID) renewal to officers in July 2026, with the Corporate Director of Place consulting the Executive Mayor and Cabinet Member for Planning and Regulatory Services. This follows the re-elected Mayor Jason Perry delivering his annual statement outlining priorities in May 2026, with the opposition pledging to hold him to account.

In April 2026, Croydon Council approved new rules to make meetings more efficient and inclusive, aiming to enhance accountability of the Executive Mayor and Cabinet. These changes, approved by the General Purposes Committee, include allowing public questions at council tax and budget setting meetings and introducing written questions for the Executive Mayor and Cabinet.
