Poster Busters is an initiative to keep the posts and fences signage free as there are legal ways to advertise.
Legal signs have a small, green circular sticker placed on them, with the letters EMM on the sticker.
Mrs Sharon Lendrum-Frittelli said they meet in the parking area at Horwood’s Farm on Homestead Road (off 17th Avenue) at 2pm on the third Saturday of each month.
“Each participant is handed a green pinafore and each team is given a route to follow for the removal of illegal signage. Once completed, we meet back at the parking area at 3.50pm to either compile a list of offending companies to be fined and/or dump the signage in the yellow bins provided,” she said.
A signed Certificate of Participation is available for students upon request.
The following dates for Poster Buster can be noted – February 20, March 19, April 16, May 21, June 18, July 16, August 20, September 17, October 15, November 19 and the date December – will be announced based on if a removal is necessary.
Should the proposed elections be held on any of the scheduled dates, you will be advised of either the cancellation or an alternative date in that month.
