As shared by News.com, John Sidoti allegedly persuaded and consistently met with Counselors about a town center property development.

Thus far, Perrotett is under the impression that Sidoti encouraged plans that were not at all the vision of the council back in 2013. Two years later, his family members purchased two buildings. One in front and one at the back of the Five Dock town center.
Earlier today, Perrottet shared that he has asked John Sidoti to step down from parliament given the current investigation that is underway. He previously stated that he would move a motion to have Sidoti suspended from parliament if he refused.
“The New South Wales government has also sought legal advice in relation to this matter.”
