The Chapel St. Trader’s Association, representing more than 1500 traders is calling for a multi-million dollar spending program to rejuvenate the once iconic shopping strip.
Traders say that years of neglect are taking their toll and the glitz, glamour and cutting edge retail mix is now typified by empty stores, the influx of boring chain stores, graffiti, and poor facilities. Stonnington Council’s annual budget is due in the next month and will be closely watched by traders for corrective action.
