1    PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING REPORT – 9 FEBRUARY 2021


8    PLANNING APPLICATIONS DECIDED BY DELEGATED AUTHORITY
     In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Lorentson provided the following
     declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
     I, Cr Lorentson, inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter in relation
     to the applications by David Cominskey and Mark Bain as I have a personal relationship with both the
     Cominskey and Bain families. In relation to the application by David Cominskey, the Cominskey family
     are friends of mine and we have attended social events together and our children attended school
     together. My husband plays sport regularly with the applicant. In relation to the application by Mark
     Bain, the Bain family are friends of mine and we have attended social events together, our children
     attended school together and they surf together as part of the Noosa Boardrider's Club. During the 2020
     election campaign, Mr Bain appeared in one of my campaign videos and agreed to one of my election
     signs being placed at the Petrol Station located on Gympie Terrace of which Mr Bain was the property
     landlord. As a result of my conflict of interest I will now leave the meeting room while the matter is
     considered and voted on.
