A $15 billion oil refinery proposal could be the catalyst which finally unlocks the state government’s long-held ambition to develop a major industrial port north of Geraldton.
Perth town planner Sergio Famiano has been fined $4,000 and will have a criminal record, after he admitted to stalking a younger female peer over a three-year period.
Mr Famiano, 51, today appeared in Perth Magistrates Court, where he pleaded guilty to a charge of pursuing another to intimidate.
The court was told that Mr Famiano repeatedly contacted an industry peer, despite her making it clear she wanted nothing to do with him.
The pair met in December 2022, when the victim was 35-years-old and single.
