Mr Evans
The Staning Orders are a Local Law established under the powers conferred by the Local Government Act 1995. They are intended to result in the orderly, efficient and effective conduct of meetings that hopefully provide better decision making by Council. They are law and as such not "just a variation of GREY", however there at times needs to be a level of flexibility to accommodate community members with little or no meeting procedure knowledge.
The Standing Orders make provision for elected members to call a point of order where they consider the Presiding Member is not operating in accordance with the local law.
In relation to obtaining a copy of the recording of the meeting, if you contact Alexis Cranfield on 9391 3267 to determine in what format you require the recording she can make the necessary arrangements. The current fee for a copy of the recording is $12.50 which is to be paid prior to the copying taking place.
