Why I'm standing
I believe Stewart Island is considered a liability to the district council and I would like to change this.
About me
I am prepared to listen to and bring concerns to the community board and reply to questions from constituents.
My priorities
- Look after the elderly and young families.
- Reduce rates on services, transport, power and services that we do not receive, eg water.
