See below chaptered sections of the meeting so you can scrub to the specific locations of the Zoom call, highlighted in red is some key points, just click on the time to open the video in a new window.
Firstly, the mayor did not need to put on the agenda an item to vote for or against the project continuing, no discussion or debate was had, and this could have been tabled.
Lyn, Robyn, Viv, Rabbit, Brenda, Channey all asked for more consultation by letting the report and resolution lie on the table, thats 6 of 9 councillors, however Mayor Weston and Clive managed to confuse people by not accepting the motion called by Viv and Seconded by Lyn. Our Legal advice on the matter is that the Mayor Could/Should have accepted the motion. That a breach has occurred and could be rectified. ### Watch the short 2:25minute clip here ###
