The council are in talks to charge you an additional £225 per year.
If you wish to voice your objections, make sure you email [email protected] before the 31st Aug 2024.

If you own a business on the IOW you need to read this!

The IW Council are holding a consultation on pavement advertising boards, and proposing a £225 annual fee to use one! Newport Business Association feel that this is not right, fair or necessary, and will only hurt small businesses. We have made our response.

There are just 11 days left to submit a comment before a decision will be made, so please add your own retailer's view of the proposal and how it would affect you.
