Lauren Hawken

Candidate for Ōrākei Local Board • Auckland Council
Other News and Biography Details

Lauren Hawken, standing as an independent voice, for the Ōrākei Local Board, for better community decisions.


I'm standing independently, as I want to represent the local community, not a political party. I will listen to you, advocate for the community, and will not be led by outside agendas.


I’m committed to representing our community and businesses, using my resource & environmental planning experience to ensure parks, facilities, events, and transport infrastructure deliver long-term benefits for Ōrākei.


I've been an active volunteer member of a Residents Association for the past 3 years, challenging the Council to cut spending, supporting high-intensity development while protecting neighbourhood character, and contributing to environmental restoration projects (i.e. cleaning up ACM (asbestos-containing material) in the Tāmaki Estuary).
