Jonny Osborne

Candidate for Motukairangi/Eastern General Ward • Wellington City Council
Affiliation Green Party
Official Candidate Statement

I love Motukairangi and the Eastern Suburbs. There’s no place I’d rather raise my kids and I'll work hard to make it better for all of us.

My background as a water policy specialist, lawyer, volunteer tree planter, kids’ sports coach and stay-at-home dad gives me the experience necessary to be an effective councillor. A decade in the public service means I understand how bureaucracy works. Three years on a regional water planning committee highlighted the value of working collaboratively to find lasting solutions.

My priorities are simple: cheaper and reliable public transport; safe streets for everyone, no matter your age, ability or how you get around; good quality affordable housing; water infrastructure that works; well maintained, accessible community facilities; a healthy predator free environment; a new public park at Mātai Moana.

For a councillor who cares, listens and will work hard for all of us, vote 1 Jonny Osborne.
