Environment

Local governments play a central role in protecting the environment, reducing waste and safeguarding biodiversity. The worsening state of New Zealand’s lakes and rivers is a major challenge for local councils, which work with regional councils in the management of water resources in their area.

  • Water quality, particularly our waste water into our streams and sea, is crucial to our environment and wellness! I don't support Three Waters!

    Encourage sound policy around waste and recycling. I support financial and social policy to enhance our environment.

    I am not supportive of Three Waters in its current form! Local resources and decisions should stay local, not be made from Auckland.

  • Investigate long term waste solutions as the current situation is unnecessarily increasing transport emissions.

    Stop exporting our waste issue – we must stop paying other regions to bury our waste.

    Undertake works to prevent the frequent flooding of the Waikanae estuary area.

  • Champion the regeneration of the Wharemauku Stream project, Wharemauku park and whale song development.

    Proactively support the development of the Otaihanga waste recovery area for sustainability planning and implementation.

    Support Māori worldview approaches to environmental protection and water quality.
