Fight Compulsory Advertising Levy

If you want to object to this compulsory advertising levy, you MUST object in writing before the 20th of march.
Council has made it extremely difficult to object, which is highly unfair.
316 business owners and property owners will need to object in writing.
If you don't object, we all pay.

The South Melbourne Business Association only needed to collect a small number of supporters, but objectors are subject to a totally unfair system of rules, deadlines and regulations.

This is the kind of thing that polarises councils and communities.

If there organisations were TRULY interested in helping local business, they would stop treating them with such contempt.

Council and the SMBA have set this up so it is really hard to overturn.
But it is possible.
51% of the businesses must object - that's 316 of us.

Have your say, or we all pay.
