_________________________________________________________

 

In accordance with section 150EF of the Local Government Act 2009, Councillor Andrew Antoniolli informed the meeting that he may have a perceived personal interest in Item 16.6 titled Proposal to Acquire industrial property located at Flinders View for a strategic purpose.

 

The nature of the personal interest is that the matter involves real estate and because it is a listed property, he possesses a real estate salesperson certificate although not operational as he is not attached to any firm. He advised that he is not familiar with the property in any way nor the owner nor the agents involved.

 

Councillor Antoniolli advised that he has previously declared this interest before in relation to properties that Council already owns however this matter is private property of which the Council has an interest so therefore declaring again as the circumstances are slightly different.

 

It was moved by Mayor Teresa Harding and seconded by Councillor Jim Madden

that Councillor Andrew Antoniolli may participate in the meeting in relation to the matter, including by voting on the matter because there is no personal or financial benefit to the councillor and therefore a reasonable person would trust that the final decision is made in the public interest.
