The bosses of the Hampstead Village Business Improvement District (BID) have released the business plan they hope will persuade local firms to back the controversial scheme for another five years.
A vote will be held in June on the scheme, which charges a levy on traders and aims to promote business in the area.
The document includes detailed spending plans for the next five years and also explains the BID – which has previously been challenged in court – is also planning to raise the business rates threshold, meaning fewer businesses would have to pay.

We want to say a huge thank you to all of our readers who have supported the Ham&High’s relaunch over the past fortnight.
To mark the occasion, we ve put together a video from familiar faces around Hampstead and Highgate on what our newspaper means to the local community.
The relaunch sees us put a focus on longer reads and analysis on issues that matter to communities in north London.

Gap has gone; Sainsbury’s is coming. Traffic is back; bike lanes are on the way. People are working from home; Zoom is the new norm.
The coronavirus pandemic has changed the way we live, travel and interact – and it will no doubt help shape the future of our village centres.
Covid-19 has taken a heavy toll on our high streets: Some shops have been forced to close, and many residents have relied on neighbours, families, friends and volunteers for support.
This period has debilitated and knocked many of us off stride. But it may also offer an opportunity for a new direction.
