returned at 10:49pm

108/23 Resolved
Cr Grattan / Cr Bingham
That:
1. In
accordance with the requirements of section 10A of the Local Government
Act 1993 as addressed below, Council resolve to close the meeting to the
public to consider and discuss:
a. Item
19.1 RFT2022/206 - Design and Construct Morgan & Oxford Falls Road Bridge
on the basis that it involves the receipt and discussion of commercial
information of a confidential nature that would, if disclosed, prejudice the
commercial position of the person who supplied it [10A(2)(d(i)) Local
Government Act 1993].
This
report discusses/provides advice concerning commercial tenders. On balance,
the public interest in preserving the confidentiality of the information
about the matter outweighs the public interest in maintaining openness and
transparency in Council decision-making because the disclosure of this
information would result in the release of commercial in confidence
information.
2.
The resolutions made by the Council in
Closed Session be made public after the conclusion of the closed session and
such resolutions be recorded in the minutes of the Council meeting.
