VOTING RECORD

The minutes were signed.

The Lord Mayor welcomed the Yaizu Sister City delegation to the meeting and introduced Mayor Hiromichi Nakano, Akiko Watanabe – Director of Cultural Affairs, Mr Takeshi Miyazaki - Interpreter for Mayor Nakano, Ms Chitose Iwata - Yaizu City Officer and Mrs Yukiko Burns, Interpreter for the City of Hobart.

The delegation, along with the Yurikamome Children’s Choir, has been visiting Hobart between 17 and 23 August 2018.

The Lord Mayor also welcomed the former Lord Mayor and Speaker of the House of Assembly, The Honourable Sue Hickey MP.

Mr Ben Lohberer put the following question and was provided with a response from the Lord Mayor on behalf of the Council.

Question:

Has the HCC received any information from the Mount Wellington Cableway Company about the likely cost of building a large new intersection outside the McRobies Gully tip, to separate and reintegrate traffic going to the tip and traffic going to the latest site proposed by MWCC for a cable car base station?

Response:

At this stage the Council has received no detailed plans or application for any roadworks to provide access to the base station of the proposed cable car.  As such the Council has no information on likely costs of any component of those roadworks.

The General Manager tabled two documents purporting to be petitions calling for Aldermen Reynolds and Briscoe to excuse themselves from voting on a cable car proposal.

There were 179 and 191 signatories respectively. 

The General Manager advised the meeting that he would seek external legal advice as to whether the petitions meet the requirements of the Local Government Act 1993.

 Ruzicka

Harvey                                                                                                              

That:   1.    The documents be treated as correspondence unless            the legal advice determines that they are valid petitions         in which case they be referred to the appropriate                     committee and;

            2.     The General Manager advise the Council of the                      outcome of the legal advice.
