Mayor Signs

More signage news from around the world from Hants and Dorset Signs as in Wingecarribee, Australia Mayor Duncan Gair was forced to remove signs advertising his business after admitting they did not comply with Council policy. During the January 27 Council meeting, Councillor Ken Halstead held up photos of a sign advertising Cr Gair’s Fitzroy Falls business.

In the photo, the sign was placed directly under a 60kmh speed sign on the roadside.

Cr Halstead asked the mayor if the sign was Council approved, to which the mayor responded “no”.

Cr Halstead compared the mayor’s non-compliance to the way Council were handling illegal signage put up by the Werai Tea House.

In that case the owners had received a $750 fine for two signs displayed on trailers at the site.

Council general manager Jason Gordon said senior staff had met with the owners at Werai Tea Hous to discuss their concerns.

“My understanding is that this issue does go back a while, and now that the fine has been issued through the Office of State Revenue it is out of Council’s hands,” Mr Gordon said.

“We will review the matter and go from there.”

Mr Gordon said the mayor would not be fined.
