Why I'm standing
I have either lived or worked in Upper Hutt for the last 48 years, it is my home that I love. In particular I am concerned with the state of the CBD, too many empty shops, a poorly managed mall, and rampant burglaries and theft. I want a council that is going to focus on improving the CBD, it is the heart of the city.
About me
I have worked in the hospitality industry for the last 28 years, giving me immense experience in dealing with people face to face, communicating and resolving conflict. I am a people person, easy to talk to and always happy to listen. I am also an experienced business person, having managed multiple venues and currently own Blend Bar and Bistro, knowing the struggle businesses currently face.
My priorities
- Improve the CBD by addressing too many empty and derelict shops and a poorly managed mall.
- Provide businesses more tools and information to prevent and fight crime.
- Improve roading, in particular State Highway Two, needs to be four-laned right to the top of Upper Hutt.
