THE tragic lack of support from Bathurst Regional Council is a major contributor to the decline in CBD business occupancy rates. The strategy most experienced business people have is to avoid council at all cost, because if you do involve them, they will place roadblock after roadblock in your way. READ ALSO: Rather than "How can we work with you" to help you get what you want and be compliant with the law, they delight in mindnumbing compliance issues and extra charges. I believe council are no longer a public service, but a public nuisance and an incredibly costly one at that.
