Rodney Ward
Why I'm standing
I want to offer my abilities in engineering, business and honesty to our ward. With local knowledge from my time here and prior experience on the board I am already aware of the processes and requirements involved.
About me
I have a mind that enquires and then questions the results with respect. I critically analyse and offer methods to look towards cost saving if I can. With the skill set of my life skills and results of this I can push for better results during a tenure.
My priorities
- Limit costs to ratepayers as rates are currently the biggest driving factor in cost increases.
- Mitigate river damage and protect assets from water failures currently happening.
- Obtain honest transparent information from the council because the lack of this wedges the community.
