Gore District Council
The Gore District Council provides local services and facilities, such as public transport, rubbish and recycling, libraries, parks, and recreation facilities. It also makes decisions about building and planning, local regulations, and infrastructure, such as water supply and sewerage. The council is made up of 11 councillors and the mayor. This election is for the three councillors elected by all voters in the district. The other councillors will be elected to represent wards (areas in the district). This is a first past the post (FPP) election, so you vote by ticking the name of your preferred candidate on your ballot paper.

About me
I have lived and worked in this community for many years and I see many issues within the community not responded to, and many opportunities for betterment and development not taken advantage of. I seek to address these matters, and having been an adviser to a number of councils I have the skills and experience to be an effective councillor representing and benefiting the community.
My priorities
- Undertake a time and cost efficiency review of the council's activities.
- Introduce more effective means of consultation before decisions are made that affect the community.
- Facilitate initiatives that provide for ongoing education, training and jobs for school leavers.
