      Council Resolution
      Moved:            Cr Tom Wegener
      Seconded:         Cr Karen Finzel
      That Council:
      A. Note the report by the Financial Services Manager to the Special Meeting dated
         23 June 2026; and
      B. Pursuant to Sections 44(1)(b) and 47(7) of the Local Government Act 2009, apply
         the Code of Competitive Conduct to its Waste Management business activity for
         the 2026/27 financial year, as it meets the definition of a significant business
         activity pursuant to Section 19 (3) of the Local Government Regulation 2012, with
         the adoption of the Full Cost Pricing business model providing the greatest
         community net benefit when compared to the Commercialised Business Unit
         business model; and
      C. Pursuant to Section 47 of the Local Government Act 2009, apply the Code of
         Competitive Conduct to its Holiday Parks business activity for the 2026/27
         financial year; and
      D. Pursuant to Sections 47(7) and 47(8) of the Local Government Act 2009, not apply
         the Code of Competitive Conduct to its Community Facilities, Cemeteries and
         Digital Hub business activities, as the application of the Code of Competitive
         Conduct would add an additional significant administrative burden to Council
         without improving the decision-making or financial performance of the activities.

      Carried.
      For:              Cr Frank Wilkie, Cr Karen Finzel, Cr Jessica Phillips, Cr
