Notice of Public Censure and Public Apology
Please see a statement from the Local Government Standards Panel and Former Councillor Jesse Jacobs.
PUBLIC APOLOGY BY FORMER COUNCILLOR JESSE JACOBS
A complaint was made to the Local Government Standards Panel, in which it was alleged that I contravened Division 4 of the Local Government (Model Code of Conduct) Regulations 2021 when I made certain comments to a journalist that were published in the West Australian Newspaper on 25 August 2021 and 26 August 2021.
The Panel found that I breached regulation 18 of the said Regulations.
I accept that I should not have made the relevant comments which were false, misleading and intended to detriment Mayor Patrick Hall and the Council of the City of Canning.
I now apologise to Mayor Patrick Hall, my former fellow Councillors and the public.
