Why I'm standing

I wish to contribute further to the community that has given me so much over the last twenty five years. The diverse nature of this community will make future involvement in its planning and progress. An exciting prospect.

About me

I have had considerable experience managing local recreational and sports facilities, which have given me a strong insight into the makeup of local constituents.

My priorities
  1. Development of an effective public transport system.
  2. Sound environmental policies for agriculture.
  3. Adequately fund cultural activities.
