1    REVIEW OF THE OPERATIONS OF THE COOROY BUTTER FACTORY
     Cr Wellington declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173
     of the Local Government Act) due to his regular attendance of the Cooroy Lower Mill Board
     Meetings in an ex-officio capacity.
     Cr Wellington believed he could consider this item impartially and in the public interest and
     therefore remained in the meeting room for debate and decision on this matter.
     That Council note the report by the Director of Community Services to the Infrastructure &
     Services Committee Meeting dated 3 March 2015 and agree to:
     A.     Adopt Option 3 as its preferred option;
     B.     Staff consulting with the Cooroy Lower Mill Board to develop a Business plan and
            budget to present to Council in a future report; and
     C.     Continue to maintain the Butter Factory and Pottery Shed buildings.


2    DECEMBER 2014 QUARTERLY BUDGET REVIEW REPORT
     That Council note the report by the Manager Financial Services to the Planning &
     Organisation Committee Meeting dated 3 March 2015 and the further report to the General
     Committee dated 9 March 2015, and approve the requested changes to the budget for the
     2014/2015 financial year as outlined in the Schedule of Proposed Budget Adjustments
     (Attachment 1) and Budget Financial Statements (Attachment 2).
