Auckland Council (See full results)Affiliation: Fix AucklandCandidate Statement
Hi voters!
Three years ago, Aucklanders entrusted me with their support for my five key policies: Stopping Wasteful Spending, Finishing Our Big Projects, Taking Back Control of our CCOs, Speeding Up Traffic with Smart IT, and Making the Most of our Harbours.
I'm proud to say we've made real progress on all fronts. Plus, your council now boasts a Future Fund and Sustainable Finances, all while delivering the lowest municipal rate rises in New Zealand!
I am seeking another three years to lock in the savings and complete my policies, especially fixing Auckland Transport, once I get control of AT as promised by the government. So, please vote me back in as Mayor to finish the job and Fix Auckland!
