Why I'm standing

I would like the opportunity, and believe I have the necessary skills, to make sensible decisions that will enhance the environment for the benefit of my community and for the benefit of the environment itself.

About me

I have worked as a planner for various councils and as a consultant for over 20 years. Consequently, I have a good understanding of council processes. Currently, I work part-time as a lecturer at the University of Canterbury and am used to synthesising ideas, reading and critiquing reports. I have also been involved in many community organisations including Plunket, school board, tennis club, Information centre, Community House and the Coastal Panel.

My priorities
  1. Support all efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with transport.
  2. Plan for the effects of sea level rise associated with climate change.
  3. Complete plans for Akaroa's wastewater/sewerage, so that it is no longer disposed of to the harbour.
