Selwyn District Council
The Selwyn District Council provides local services and facilities, such as public transport, rubbish and recycling, libraries, parks, and recreation facilities. It also makes decisions about building and planning, local regulations, and infrastructure, such as water supply and sewerage. The council is made up of 10 councillors and the mayor. Councillors are elected to represent wards (areas in the district). Two councillors will be elected from the Ellesmere ward. This is a first past the post (FPP) election, so you vote by ticking the name of your preferred candidate on your ballot paper.

Why I'm standing
I want to be a local voice for my rural community on current issues.
About me
I am actively involved in my community and want my council to be community led.
My priorities
- Retain our water infrastructure within our local council and protect it from privatisation.
- Implement a rate review which challenges our current rates model and makes it fair and affordable.
- Introduce council led support for local farming and food security.
