         In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Wegener
         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 in relation to the application by Sunshine Butterflies as on 23 October 2020 I
         provided them with a donation of surfboard making equipment valued at
         approximately $1200. Although I have a declarable conflict of interest, I do not believe
         a reasonable person could have a perception of bias because I do not have any other
         association with that organisation. 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.
         Council Resolution
         Moved:         Cr Frank Wilkie
         Seconded: Cr Clare Stewart
         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 he 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.

         Council Resolution
         Moved:       Cr Joe Jurisevic
         Seconded: Cr Amelia Lorentson
         That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the Planning &
         Environment Committee Meeting dated 11 July 2023 regarding Application No.
