Waimakariri District Council
The Waimakariri 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). Four councillors will be elected from the Kaiapoi-Woodend 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
To maintain and if able to improve the quality of life in our district.
About me
I have been part of this great community for almost 50 years and feel passionate about its future. Starting out as an automotive engineer, I then progressed to running several businesses including a building company, electronics company, and an import distribution business. I would love the opportunity to be part of a team that works for all Waimakariri residents. That of course is what a public servant should be doing.
My priorities
- Maintain a great quality of life in our area and do all I can to improve it further.
- Fight for local council control. Do all I can to stop centralisation. It's not good for the residents.
- Stop Three Waters.
