Why I'm standing
I believe Auckland is the best city in the world - in ten years time, and only if we make the right decisions. I believe we're not doing enough to prepare for the environmental climate we're driving towards, and I want to change that. I believe we're not doing enough to ensure our streets are safe for our kids, pedestrians and cyclists and I want to change that.
About me
I was part of the group that stopped AT from removing the Western Springs pōhutukawas, organised a protest against Brian Tamaki's political rally, worked for a decade to try to get traffic calming put into Point Chevalier, worked for almost as long to rid local reserves of weeds, I was chair of the trust that put cinema onto Waiheke Island. Candidates should show a history of working to create better things for the community.
My priorities
- See our streets made safer for everyone – our kids, our pedestrians and our cyclists.
- Ensure green spaces and street trees are protected and increased in number.
- Support our local community organisations and people doing good works amongst us.
