Auckland Council

Albany Ward
The Auckland Council makes strategic decisions for Auckland on public transport, urban planning, environmental protection and other big issues. The council provides funding to local boards to provide public services in their areas, and manages council-controlled organisations which provide infrastructure, such as public transport, water and sewerage. The councillors and mayor make up the governing body, which shares governance of Auckland Council with the 21 local boards. The governing body is made up of 20 councillors plus the mayor. Councillors are elected to represent wards (areas in Auckland). Two councillors will be elected from your ward. This is a first past the post (FPP) election, so you vote by ticking the name of your preferred candidate on your ballot paper. Compare the candidates and their policies to decide who to vote for in the Auckland Council election.

Why I'm standing

I believe Auckland needs a mayor and a council that will represent and unify the ratepayers of Auckland City, rather than divisive political agendas pushed on them from an out of touch, ideologically driven, central regime.

About me

I have had a very broad life experience and can relate to a wide section of the community. The key thing in real leadership is understanding that all people have greatness in them. When you include people, they will respond.

My priorities
  1. Let people know they are special and have a part to play in building a generational and healthy city.
  2. Give people an opportunity to participate in building a better city so they feel appreciated valued.
  3. Reinforce that tried and true maxim – united we stand, divided we fall. As a city, we are one family.
