Notification of Interest

In accordance with s150EL(3)(b)(i) of the Local Government Act 2009 Councillor R Natoli gave notice of a Prescribed Conflict of Interest in relation to:

I, Mayor Rosanna Natoli, notify that I have a Prescribed Conflict of Interest in Agenda Item 8.1 - Mooloolaba Foreshore Revitalisation - Stage Two Central Meeting Place and Southern Seawall  to be considered at the Ordinary Meeting on 30 May 2024 due to the fact that on 3 February 2024, I received an electoral gift of a voucher for five nights’ accommodation valued at $2,200.00 from Scott Bowering, Resort Manager of the Peninsular Beachfront Resort located at 13 Mooloolaba Esplanade, Mooloolaba. 

The Peninsular Beachfront Resort will potentially benefit from, and/or be impacted by, the works proposed to the Central Meeting Place and the Southern Seawall.

On this basis, in accordance with section 150EK of the Local Government Act 2009, I will exclude myself from any meeting while this matter is being discussed and the vote is taken.

In accordance with s150EK(1) of the Local Government Act 2009, Councillor R Natoli left the place at which the meeting was being held, including the area set aside for the public and stayed away while the matter was considered and voted on.  

The Mayor vacated the Chair.

The Peninsular Beachfront Resort will potentially benefit from, and/or be impacted by, the works proposed to the Central Meeting Place and the Southern Seawall.

As I am a close associate of Mayor Natoli as defined under section 150EJ (1) of the Local Government Act 2009, the electoral gift which she received also gives rise to a Prescribed Conflict of Interest for myself.

On this basis, in accordance with section 150EK of the Local Government Act 2009, I will exclude myself from any meeting while this matter is being discussed and the vote is taken.

In accordance with s150EK(1) of the Local Government Act 2009, Councillor J Natoli left the place at which the meeting was being held, including the area set aside for the public and stayed away while the matter was considered and voted on.

Ordinary Meeting Minutes                                                                          30 May 2024

 

11.1       Confidential - not for public release - Strategic Land Acquisition - Ilkley

File No:                         Council Meetings

Authors:                       Coordinator Biodiversity & Waterways

Liveability & Natural Assets Group

Head of Strategic Property

Business Performance Group 

In preparing this report, the Chief Executive Officer recommends it be considered confidential in accordance with Section 254J (3) (g) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 as it contains information relating to negotiations relating to a commercial matter involving the local government for which a public discussion would be likely to prejudice the interests of the local government.

The report is confidential in respect to the content and timeframes of negotiations with the landowners and recognising that, until Council makes a decision and the sale contracts are executed, the acquisition has no certainty.

Public disclosure at this time would potentially impact adversely on the finalisation of a current negotiation process and Council’s ability to secure the land parcels at a price that represents the best value for the ratepayers of the region.

The report contains a recommendation to release details relating to the site location and price of the acquisitions once negotiations have been finalised and the transfer of the property title has been registered with the Titles Registry.  

 

Council Resolution (OM24/41)

Moved:           Councillor M Suarez

Seconded:      Councillor T Bunnag

That Council:

(a)     delegate authority to the Chief Executive Officer to enter into negotiations, execute all documentation and finalise the acquisition of the identified strategic property in Ilkley and 

(b)     authorise the Chief Executive Officer to publicly release details relating to the site location and contract price for the identified strategic property once the negotiations have been finalised and the transfer of ownership of land has been registered with the Titles Registry.

Carried unanimously.

Councillor C Dickson was absent for the discussion and vote on this Item.
