Thread: Eastern F&G Ballot holders to be charged a "maintenance" fee

Like most of these things, they are probably testing the waters to gauge the reaction. There are so many questions that need to be answered, and the whole thing is open to interpretation.
To me it would have been more sensible for F&G to inspect every maimai each year and recommend remedial work for those ballot holders that need to do some work. Give them plenty of notice, and after 2 strikes, they are out!
I can imagine that our extra payment will all go on a couple of stands each year ( unless the charge is quite substantial). If a couple of stands is all that gets sorted each year, then surely there is a better, more cost effective way.

I notice that on the wetland that I shoot, some stands have mum, dad and 3 kids as ballot holders. F&G say they are going to charge each ballot holders. How is that fair?
