BACKGROUND
Citizens of San Andreas,

The San Andreas State Government, through the Business Licensing Bureau (BLB), is pleased to unveil a new Business Rebate program aimed at easing financial burdens for business owners across the state. This initiative offers refunds on expenses such as license fees, Weazel News fees, and security costs incurred during business events and operations. Additionally, the program covers a portion of the catering expenses by sourcing the required food and beverages and providing them to a business at an affordable rate. These changes can be seen in full in the section below.

Small business is an important part of the private sector in San Andreas, and the Business Licensing Bureau has introduced this Business Rebate as a means to help bolster this sector. The rebates provided to business should also help benefit the citizens of the state, as they will be able to see a rise in the number of events and happenings across the state. The Business Licensing Bureau has hopes that such a scheme will continue to evolve in the future as new ways to improve it emerge. The continued support of the businesses across the state as a central factor at the work currently being undertaken by this bureau, and the rebate scheme is another step towards this.

The San Andreas State Government through the Business Licensing Bureau will provide the opportunity to event based businesses such as, Nightclubs, Restaurants and Bars ((Non Scripted Businesses)), to apply for refunds on expenses including but not limited to:
  • License Fees Expenses : The Business Licensing Bureau will be offering refunds on the licenses that been used for an event, the amount of money refunded will be based on the collective amount paid for the licenses used in said event, on the number of days of the month the event was held on. If a nightclub opens for 3 days in the month, they will be rebated 3 days worth of licensing fees. This will be automatically added to every accepted rebate application, once the events are at least one (1) hour long.
  • Weazel News Fees: The Business Licensing Bureau will be offering refunds for the Weazel News expenses of the event. Upon reviewing the application the Business Licensing Bureau will decide whether the Weazel News expenses will be refunded, if accepted, the Business Licensing Bureau will be refunding the fees for up to: a one (1) day Premium Blip and Ten (10) ads. The following conditions must be satisfied for the ads to be eligible for rebate: the ad should only include advertisement and information about the event. Any other information ( example: Raffle tickets sale, Private dances sale etc.) may disqualify the applicant from this refund.
  • Security Costs: The Business Licensing Bureau will be offering refunds for the expenses of the security for the event. The amount to be refunded will be based on the judgement of the Business Licensing Bureau official present during the event. Refunds are eligible for a maximum of four(4) security agents.
  • Catering Costs: The San Andreas State Government, through the Business Licensing Bureau, will also be providing the ability for these event based businesses to request support from the Government, for food and drink supply for their events at cheap prices. The Business Licensing Bureau will provide the business with the items for the event prior. After the event, whatever was not sold, must be returned.

This program underscores our commitment to supporting local businesses and fostering a dynamic event hosting environment within the state. I am so pleased to be able to share these changes with you. They are a fantastic union of the San Andreas State Government, and Weazel News, who were so kind to provide us the ability to include advertisements into this rebate system. Advertisements are such a big part of running events, this was perfect for us in the Business Licensing Bureaus.

The offerings of catering and security was also another large aspect we took into consideration, as a high number of events have these elements at them. We were able to utilize licensing refunds, as well as wholesale discounts to achieve both of these changes and felt their inclusion in this scheme was integral to businesses being able to utilize it fully.

One thing that Citizens tell us repeatedly is that the various events that are held over the state, by businesses, is one of the main inspirations for them opening their own businesses. I am proud to have worked together with the Business Licensing Bureau team and other State Government Personnel to bring this scheme to fruition, and I cannot wait to see the good it bring in our state.
