    Affiliation: Independent
    Candidate Statement

    My principal place of residence is in the Mauao/Mount Maunganui General Ward area.

    My family has lived, loved and served Tauranga since the 1890's, with 12 years of prior elected service as a Councillor, Community Board Chair and President BOP Justices of the Peace, alongside current Chair of BOP Child Youth Mortality Review Committee, President MRRR and a lifetime commitment to Surf Lifesaving, I have the competencies and passion to represent this Ward.

    A key business principle is to take your stakeholders with you, yet Ratepayers are not feeling ownership or inclusiveness in Council business, in particular debt levels. I have worked hard representing the Mount Community, attending local Council sponsored workshops, and passionately advocating for Mount interests, Coastal Pathway, Mount reinstatement. I understand the issues facing this Ward, Links Ave, flood mitigation, Totara Street Hewletts Road congestion, air quality. I'll champion the local voice through forward thinking, inclusive, socially cohesive, commonsense governance and empower communities to be representatives of their place.
