Janelle Hinch
Ruapehu District Councillor
Why I'm standing
As a businesswoman and a homeowner, I recognise the importance in council's role in facilitating the lifestyle that those who live here are lucky enough to enjoy. I stand as a passionate voice for our district to ensure decisions that reflect what we want our future to look like.
About me
I have experienced Ruapehu as a visitor, a seasonaire and as a full time local. I have worked in hospitality, tourism, governance and now own a manufacturing business, exporting from Ruapehu. I understand the challenges our people face and I will continue to be an open and sincere liaison between council and community.
My priorities
- Develop a strong and diversified economic base to combat the effects of our district's seasonality.
- Ensure spending is distributed fairly throughout the district to ensure equal opportunities.
- Make decisions focused on both environmental and economic sustainability. Our future depends on it.
