Mike Duncan
About me
I come from Porirua and it has always been home. I grew up in the East, and Christine and I have raised our family in Titahi Bay. The Duncan whānau is now four generations deep in this city, so I want Porirua to be a place that supports people at every stage of life, no matter their income or background.
My priorities
- Keep Porirua a vibrant, affordable and inclusive city.
- Continue the quest for sensible spending and value for money.
- Make Porirua a welcoming city by celebrating Porirua's diversity and youth.
