Guy Wayne Temoni-Syme portrait

Guy Wayne Temoni-Syme

Official Candidate Biography

My name is Guy Temoni-Syme. Married with children. My background is Finance and insurance for 10+ years. Rates that we pay is somewhat a statement on it's own. Higher premiums every year unavoidable due to Council Spending. 15%+ and more if your Behind on your rates. My amendment to this is I would look at rebate for on-time payments for the following year around at least 10%. 

Let keep Maaori Wards. And Keep the relationship with iwi growing. 

 With Community wellbeing (including housing, Culture Preservation) and Celebrating Māori Culture. Here is a thought for voters do we need to separate Hamilton into two wards East and West could the elected cover all of Hamilton as one? 

Cleaning up our city. Streeties and profession beggars need a hardline approach by council 

I understand that there is homelessness out there. But the council has shelters and help for those that want it.
