Vendors locked out of Craft Alive for years of unpaid rent


It was no April Fools Day hoax either. According to reports, the vendors affected owe years of rent.
Reports are the arrears span between 10 to 12 years.
One vendor of Craft Alive confirmed to our News Centre that the shut out was due to unpaid rent.
The issue of vendors not honouring their rent came up since 2019, when it was revealed at a community meeting that it had been several years that some tenants were delinquent with their rent and the City was leaning towards eviction.
It is unclear what the current rent structure is; however, in 2019, vendors were put on a limited fluctuating payment of rent schedule, which saw them committing to paying $150 monthly from October to April and $250 monthly from May to September.
Despite this very low cost, vendors had still been singing the “very slow business" tune in and out of tourist season.
More details to follow.

Does it make? Do if they are locals thry should not pay their rent... did you stop and think before typing or you're just naturally less than smart. From here or not they need to pay their rent.
dont ever put aside or forget the Commission of enquiries and non of them went jail
1. they all sell the same thing.
2. Nothing sold over there is in demand
3. They're all operating at a loss
4. If by chance they raise enough for the bills
in a given month, there's nothing left to take
home.
So bills can't be paid. They operate on the basis of "i from here" so I shouldn't have to pay rent
We wishing them all good luck
