DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST:

Councillor Bennison declared a non-pecuniary interest that is significant in relation to the agenda item 7 – Proposed Sale of Drainage Reserve - Morrice Street and Tambourine Bay Road, as a tenant from his office lives in that street. Therefore Councillor Bennison will vacate the Chamber and not debate or vote on this matter.

Councillor Roenfeldt declared a non-pecuniary, non-significant interest in relation to the agenda item 7 – Proposed Sale of Drainage Reserve - Morrice Street and Tambourine Bay Road, due to having a Labor colleague who could financially benefit from any action on this agenda item. Therefore Councillor Roenfeldt will vacate the Chamber and not debate or vote on the matter.

Councillor Little declared a non-pecuniary, non-significant interest in relation to the agenda item 7 – Proposed Sale of Drainage Reserve - Morrice Street and Tambourine Bay Road, due to having a Labor colleague who could financially benefit from any action on this agenda item. Therefore Councillor Little will vacate the Chamber and not debate or vote on the matter.

Councillor Greenwell declared a non-pecuniary, non-significant pecuniary interest in relation to the agenda item 5 – Notice of Motion – Blackman Park Masterplan, due to Blackman Park being a place where she conducts business on occasion. As Councillor Greenwell does not believe this will impact her judgement on this matter, she will remain in the Chamber and will debate and vote on the matter.

Councillor Taylor declared a non-pecuniary, non-significant interest in relation to the agenda item 4 – Notice of Motion – Affordable Council Run Childcare, due to being employed by the largest private childcare operator in St Leonards. Councillor Taylor advised that at this stage he has no knowledge of them having interest to operate or purchase additional centres. Therefore Councillor Taylor will remain in the Chamber and debate and vote on the matter.

During the meeting, Councillor Bennison declared a conflict of interest regarding item 14 – Councillor representation on Council Advisory Committees and external organisations, as he is Treasurer of Lane Cove historical society. Therefore Councillor Bennison will vacate the Chamber and not debate or vote on Councillor membership of that committee.
