                     "In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009 I inform the
                     meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest for Item 11.1.1 - COMMERCIAL
                     USE OF COMMUNITY LAND POLICY AMENDMENTS AND UPCOMING
                     TENDER PROCESS on this agenda as I take weekly surfing lessons with Josh
                     Constable who is an applicant in the Upcoming Commercial High Use Tender
                     Process and as my children have previously worked (over 16-18 months ago) for
                     Dean Brady who is an applicant in the Upcoming Commercial High Use Tender
                     Process and my children are also members of Noosa Board Riders Assoc/Club
                     where they are coached by Dean Brady (also an applicant in the tender). I request
                     to stay in the meeting as the report is a policy document not a tender document."
