Advertising Stations (Rating) Act.
Under this Act, which came into operation in September,
1889, we have issued Four Licenses only, and the fees realised
have been under £10. It has been found that the majority of
builders who erect hoardings in this District prefer to keep
them free of advertisements rather than pay the rate per
square yard per month fixed by the Board.
