Why I'm standing
I stand as a candidate to ensure that a simplistic, commonsense approach is no longer a money train or talk fest. What our community values and needs the most should be attended to in a timely, cost-effective manner.
About me
I enjoy advocating for my beliefs and hold a strong stance for the rural community knowing I can make a difference. This in turn has enhanced my knowledge base, contacts and skill sets. Enthusiasm, determination, honesty, and questioning are all attributes that get me noticed.
My priorities
- Investigate prior 18 months' actions, enabling informed decisions and strategic plan moving forward.
- Support community concerns around flood protection including river management and Section 73 of the RMA.
- Protect community, support local, encourage growth and explore the historic precincts potential.
