Altrincham BID Ballot 2025

Altrincham BID
Third Term Ballot

The Altrincham Business Improvement District (BID) will be holding its Third Term Ballot in June this year. This important vote gives BID levy-paying businesses in Altrincham the opportunity to decide whether they would like the work of the BID to continue for a further five years, from 2026 to 2031.

The BID team has developed a comprehensive Business Plan for the proposed third term, shaped through extensive consultation with the businesses. This plan outlines the future priorities and projects designed to support and enhance Altrincham’s vibrant town centre.

Each eligible business will receive the Business Plan by post at the beginning of May. Ballot packs including voting papers will be sent to the businesses at the beginning of June. Businesses are strongly encouraged to cast their vote and return their completed ballot papers either by post or by using the secure ballot box located at Altrincham Library.
