In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Wilkie provided the following declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
I, Cr Wilkie, inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter in relation to the funding recommendations to Cooroora Historical Society t/a Noosa Shire Museum. I state for the record that although general membership of an organisation does not qualify as a declarable conflict of interest, I would like to put on the record my general membership of the Cooroora Historical Society, which is mentioned in this grant round. Although I have a declarable conflict of interest, I do not believe a reasonable person would see this as a conflict of interest.  Therefore, I 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.

Noosa in that event, can I have a mover? Sorry, Councillor Councillor Lorentson. Surfing reserve?
Joe Jurisevic88:02
Thank you, Councillor Stewart. I also know for the public record that I'm a member of the Tewantin news crew club and as a player I have registered again this year only to be a fill-in, but that doesn't raise a declarable conflict of interest, so it won't be declared. Councillors. I move to staff written redemption. Councillor Stockwell, while moving. Councillor Wegener, seconding. Is there any discussion? No discussion. All in favour? The room. Team fiverr. The team fiverr, ayes have it. Moved unanimously. Councillor Stewart is out of the room. We'll get Councillor Stewart back in the room for the next item. Is item 6.5: community program funding, community project grants, round 2. Equipment. All right, I'll that's alright. I'll just, again, I'll read out the applicant names so that Councillors can be aware of the potential conflicts.

Yes. Subtitles Subtitles motions. Subtitles I yep. Believe you can go to the procedural motions. Subtitles Okay, we'll move on with the reports to the regulatory General Committee. Item 6.1 is the community grants program, community project grants round 2 overview. A series we've got a series of community grants and community program funding opportunities, Councillor, if you'd like to give us a bit of an overview of the program. All have a good one.
Joe Jurisevic86:37
Yep, no worries. Rather shrill it up front than find there's any. On that matter, we can have a mover. Councillor Lorentson then, a seconder, Councillor Stewart. Any discussion? Put the door open. All in favour? That's working. Is carried unanimously. Item 6.4, community program funding, community project grants to infrastructure. Alison, would you like to tell us the difference with this one?
Kerri Contini77:31
Remind Council we have a very broad community grants program. It's our preference normally that a recommendation stands by itself and can be really clear so our community grants program covers a range of things. Community grants project program is very specific which is the nature of the reports that we're bringing to you today.
