Kiama Council has confirmed that it will hold an Extraordinary Meeting on 1 February 2024 to consider the Blue Haven Bonaira tender, as well as deferred Notice of Motion to suspend the sale of Blue Haven and appoint an investigator from the Office of Local Government.

The meeting will be held at Kiama Council Chambers at 5pm, and a public access session will be held at 4pm on the same day to allow members of the public to offer their views to Councillors.

The actual consideration of the Blue Haven Bonaira tender will take place in a confidential session. Kiama Council will publish the agenda for the meeting three days before it takes place (29 January 2024).

Mayor Neil Reilly and CEO Jane Stroud will address Blue Haven staff, residents and other stakeholders the following week to discuss the outcome.

On 11 December 2023, Councillor Kathy Rice submitted a notice of motion to suspend all action on the sale of Blue Haven Bonaira and instigate an investigation into the divestment process by the State Government. However, the debate around the notice of motion was deferred until February 2024.

Kiama Council still has its next ordinary meeting scheduled for 13 February 2024.
