Why was GB 16 debated ‘Behind closed doors’?


FOKE’s letter to Ku-ring-gai Council General Manager


The General Manager

Ku-ring-gai Council

19 November 2025

Dear General Manager

We are writing to ask why council did not comply with Section 10A(2) of NSW Local Government Act 1993 and Model Code of Meeting Practise in voting to proceed in confidential to debate the council officer’s report and recommendation for GB16 (a matter of important public interest) at council’s meeting last night?

Looking forward to your reply.

Kind regards

Kathy Cowley
