COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS TO COUNCIL

1    PARK ROAD TEMPORARY PATH UPGRADE FURTHER INFORMATION
     In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Lorentson provided the following
     declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
     I, Cr Lorentson, inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter due to my
     relationship with Andrew and Cathryn St Baker who reside in Park Road adjacent to where the pathway
     is located. My family have holidayed once with Andrew and Cathryn St Baker, my husband is close
     personal friends with Andrew St Baker and one of my election signs was located at Thomas Surfboards
     and Andrew St Baker is a joint owner of that business. As a result of my conflict of interest I will now
     leave the meeting room while the matter is considered and voted on.
     That Services & Organisation Committee Agenda Item 1 be referred to the General Committee
     due to the significance of the issue.
