Why I'm standing

I am wanting to give back to the community. I believe I have local knowledge, common sense and understanding of the basic running of the council from the ground up.

About me

Having been brought up on a farm and then running my own business for over 40 years I have a wide variety of community connections and understanding.

My priorities
  1. Reducing the continued upward trend of our current rates.
  2. Finishing our waste water project.
  3. Improve and maintain our district's roading surfaces. Work towards alleviating gravel roads.
