Wellington City Council
The Wellington City 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 15 councillors and the mayor. Councillors are elected to represent wards (areas in the city). Two councillors will be elected from the Paekawakawa/Southern ward. This is a single transferable vote (STV) election, so you vote by ranking the candidates on your ballot paper.

Why I'm standing
I want to achieve win win outcomes for all and so far its been a hectic run for businesses in Wellington. Wellington City Council to date have not assisted but yet hindered with their closing off or parking and loading zones on the back of COVID.
About me
I bring a hard working business ethic from my heritage and forward thinking imagination from my undergraduate degree at Victoria University. I love team sports as it is a dynamic which brings people together in both sports and arts. Business working in concert with council is a potential win win for all.
My priorities
- Fix drains and pipes failing infrastructure.
- Get parking and loading zones back and share the road.
- Four lanes to the planes.
