Malcolm Dixon
Councillor Hastings/Havelock North Ward
Why I'm standing
Hastings is in an incredibly good space at the moment. I am throughly enjoying making a positive contribution and I am looking forward, as an experienced councillor, to ensuring that this is only the start of our journey. There are a number of other exciting projects on our agenda like the show-grounds and the Hawke's Bay museum storage and research centre that I am very keen to see come into fruition.
About me
After 44 very successful years in education I have worked with people that come from all walks of life. I understand their needs and aspirations. Honesty, integrity, the ability to listen and work ethic are all important to me. Others recognise me as a people person who gets the job done. Having retired I now have the time to devote to making Hastings a better place for all.
My priorities
- Establish a skills/training academy for youth to attend to ensure they experience success.
- Improve regulations around medium density housing so that it becomes more affordable and available.
- Protect our fertile soils, the lifeblood of our economy. Distinguish what can and can't be developed.
