ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES                                                                        15 JULY 2021


     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 Mark Bain (listed in the report at Items 32 and 33) as I have a personal relationship
     with the Bain family. 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.
     Cr Lorentson left the meeting.
     Cr Wilkie assumed the Chair for this item for the purpose of considering the conflict of interest declaration
     by Cr Stewart.
     Council Resolution
     Moved:             Cr Wilkie
     Seconded:          Cr Stockwell
     That Council note the declarable conflict of interest by Cr Stewart and determine that it is in the public
     interest that Cr Stewart participates and votes on this matter because Council believes that Cr Stewart
     does not have a close personal relationship with Mr Taylor and therefore a reasonable person would
     trust that the final decision is made in the public interest.
                                                                                     Carried unanimously.
     Cr Stewart did not vote on the above motion.
     Cr Stewart resumed the Chair.

     Council Resolution

     That Council note the report by the Development Assessment Manager to the Planning &
     Environment Committee Meeting dated 6 July 2021 regarding planning applications that have
     been decided by delegated authority.
                                                                       Carried unanimously.
