Wainuiomata Community Board
Local democracy
Local government is a foundational part of our democracy. But local democracy isn’t just about holding elections every three years – it’s about the day-to-day ways people have their say in the decisions that affect us all.

I want to continue to push for public engagement and ensure the board is a place for community discussion and voice.
Push for a Youth Committee to report on what they want to see in Wainui, helping to push this demographic to engage with local issues.
Ensuring internal operations are reviewed and consulted upon when it affects the community.
Listen to the Wainuiomata community and ensure their voice is heard at the council table.
Reform how the community board engages with our people to let all voices be heard.
Push for fair representation at council (currently Wainuiomata has the same number of seats as Eastbourne but we have 3.5 x their population!).
Engage with the diverse communities in Wainuiomata to make sure council is in touch with our people and how we can serve them.
Any public engagement must be able to include people to able to feedback and be listened to.
Council employee wages and working conditions need to keep being improved and we need to stay as a living wage employer.
Māori and ethnic communities need to be represented properly and supported as these communities of different cultures be valued and heard.
