DOCUMENT IN FOR MATI ON




                          Cr Pardon declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173 of the
                          Local Government Act 2009) due to being a life member of the RSL. Cr Pardon believed he could
                          consider this item impartially and in the public interest and therefore remained in the meeting room
                          for the debate and decision on this matter.
