    TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY SITUATED AT 25 RAILWAY PDE, POMONA
    In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Finzel provided the following
    declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
    I, Cr Wegener, inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter as I have
    an NBN tower located on my property and receive income from NBN via a lease arrangement. It could
    be viewed that I have an interest in mobile phone networks and NBN towers however as the
    application is by Telstra and it does not indicate NBN or Optus infrastructure I do not believe a
    reasonable person could believe I have a perception of bias. Therefore, I will choose to remain in the
    meeting room. However, I will respect the decision of the meeting on whether I can remain and
    participate in the decision.
    Committee Resolution
    Moved:            Cr Stewart
    Seconded:         Cr Stockwell
    That Council note the declarable conflict of interest by Cr Wegener and determine that it is in the public
    interest that Cr Wegener participates and votes on this matter because Council believes that Cr
    Wegener does not stand to receive a personal benefit or loss in relation to this matter and therefore a
    reasonable person would trust that the final decision is made in the public interest.
                                                                                    Carried unanimously.
    Cr Wegener did not vote on the above motion.
    Committee Recommendation
    Moved:              Cr Stockwell
    Seconded:           Cr Wilkie
    That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee Meeting
    dated 16 May 2022 regarding Application No. MCU21/0151 for a Development Permit for
