The Hutt is a fantastic place to raise families. I want to protect our environment, maximise the benefits of Riverlink for rejuvenating the central city's streetscapes, hospitality and retail, and improve access for all modes of transport. I have years of experience of what makes good local government from my 27 years as Hutt News editor, and three terms on council. I want to use that to hit the ground running on the challenges ahead.
My many years of work as a journalist taught me there are almost always two sides to any issue, often more. I have learned to listen carefully to all sides, rather than rush to judgement. I am not a member of any political party - I make decisions on the issues based on collecting feedback from residents, and carefully weighing up the pros and cons of any decision.
