Why I'm standing
Golden Bay is the heart of the parks, and we have a unique opportunity to create that brand for ourselves as well as being the sustainable capital of NZ.
About me
I have served on the Community board for six years. I feel excited about our future as we face some of the biggest changes to local government and how we manage housing, farming, water, aquaculture, land, and the environment in a sustainable way. I provide good leadership and governance for Golden Bay while we retain our strong community. I am open, listen and advocate for the people of Golden Bay. Together, we find solutions.
My priorities
- I would ensure sustainability underpins every decision made.
- Secure our coastline is protected and include protection of shore birds.
- Protect Mt Arthur aquifer.
