3. Disclosure of Pecuniary Interest:
Mayor H.S. Hughes declared a pecuniary interest on Item 6c) Robin Dunn, CAO re:
Litigation affecting the municipality (Burl's Creek) as his grandson, who is now a
teenager, has lived in his household continuously since he was 6 months old. His
biological parents do not. He began employment with the former owner of Burl's Creek
in September, 2014. His grandson worked at the June and September 2015
Automotive Flea Market and anticipates continuing to work for the former owner.
Mayor Hughes subsequently learned that the application for zoning impacts the former
owner. The former owner has an agreement to continue operating the Flea Market on
lands within the zoning application. Hence, the financial impact for his grandson is
extended by the Act to include him as an elected official. Mayor H.S. Hughes was not
present for this item and did not participate in the discussion or vote on this item.
