I understand that the council needs to service the running of the Showgrounds but leave the big fees for the big companies and allow the small time folk to show and sell their wares at a reasonable cost to the public, as it is the public that will be hit to cover the large fees.

Our forefathers would be horrified, as they worked so hard to obtain and develope this site.

The Trading in Public Places Local Law was not intended to be used to discriminate against community groups or community assets such as the Claremont Showgrounds.
“….. Non-food stalls do not need to be inspected or monitored when they are not located on a roadway or road reserve and therefore licensing such stalls would be mere revenue raising.”
