Why I'm standing

I am running for election to use my skills and experience as a proven facilitator and I do not support party politics at local government level.

About me

I have had nine years experience as an elected councillor and now that I have taken some time away from the council, I am fresh and ready to use my ability to listen and respond positively.

My priorities

Introduce a full review of CBD parking and access.
Provide better transparency through meaningful consultation and accountability.
Protecting and enhancing our assets.
