A planning consultant who was invited to restaurants with councillors and Chinese developers to discuss a major project at Hurstville has told a corruption inquiry the meetings were “highly unusual”.
Georges River and Hurstville Councillors Vince Badalati, Con Hindi and Philip Sansom are currently at the centre of an ICAC investigation where it has been revealed the pair took $170,000 in cash from property developers for planning concessions on two developments in Hurstville.
Former Hurstville councillor Vince Badalati told an inquiry he wanted to tell the truth about cash he and a colleague accepted from Chinese property developers.
The NSW corruption watchdog will hold public hearings to examine whether three former councillors accepted benefits as inducements to approve developments in Sydney’s south.
