COUNCIL officers, protected by police, have pulled down tents in Treasury Gardens after Occupy Melbourne protesters were issued with council notices to comply early today.
Occupy Melbourne spokesman Wil Wallace said about a dozen Melbourne City Council officers arrived about 7am (AEDT) to inspect the site.
"They've gone and had a look at the tents, the bedding and other equipment we've got in Treasury Gardens and issued notices to comply," he said.
"They told us we had until 8 o'clock this morning to comply and to remove those structures.
