Small Business Friendly
Charters Towers Regional Council became the twentieth council to sign the Small Business Friendly Council charter, joining the pledge to support small businesses in the region.
The SBFC charter was developed by the Palaszczuk Government in conjunction with council’s and aims to recognise and encourage the support of local councils to actively support small businesses to recover and build resilience following disaster and economic challenges.
When Council signed the charter, we pledged a commitment to:
- Communicate and engage.
- Raise small businesses profile and capability.
- Support resilience and recovery
- Simplify administration and regulation (Red tape reduction)
- Ensure fair procurement and prompt payment terms.
- Promote place-based activities.
