Why I'm standing
As part of the Gateway project I saw horrendous procedure, governance and decision making! The community deserves better that this!
About me
18 years in the Police, small business owner. I bring an evidence based mindset, no political agenda, wanting what's best for our community! I want accountability at the table!
My priorities
- The Gateway is a symptom of larger issues in council – secrecy, poor culture, not listening!
- Stop the Gateway in its tracks and save the millions of dollars being spent!
- Start a process of listening to the community through a process of empowering the community boards!
