Chris Woodhams
Why I'm standing
Today, Waipā is facing a growing range of issues; "steady as we go" and "we just have to navigate" aren't the styles of leadership we need. I'm a leader with real vision and aspiration, capable of growing a stronger Waipā into the future.
About me
I'm not a politician, for this I won't apologise. I have a proven record of real-world delivery and achievement. For 20 years I served as Vice President, Director, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Executive Officer of significant international telephony software houses and have an extensive background in governance, strategies, value-development and team-development, and bring all these skills to bear in the role of Mayor of Waipā.
My priorities
- Create a more connected Waipā, socially, culturally, economically and physically.
- Progress Waipā rubbish transfer stations to reduce carbon emissions and dumping of rubbish.
- Champion a new Cambridge bridge; after many of years of failing to plan properly we must now move.
