Hamilton City Council

Louise Hutt
Why I'm standing
Hamilton needs to be represented by people who understand the urgency of the issues facing our city. We need collaborative, thoughtful leadership that will help us navigate the challenging times we're living through. For too long, we've not been investing in the well-being of our city. We need to ensure everyone has the opportunity for a high quality of life – whether you're eight years old or 80.
About me
I've spent the past three years working in our communities — as Chairperson of Go Eco, and in the COVID-19 Directorate at the Waikato District Health Board (now Te Whatu Ora). I understand the importance of supporting our communities and good governance and have worked through government reform. I bring with me a background in small business, technology and core services, creative arts, and sustainability.
My priorities
- Commit to robust, strategic climate action for community and environmental resilience.
- Ensure higher-density living is well-designed and well-connected for thriving local communities.
- Collaborate closely with communities – especially disability, arts and events, and not-for-profit.
