If you want experienced, effective leadership that delivers results, vote Julia Parfitt. A lifelong Bays resident, JP, former Deputy Mayor and Local Board Chairperson. I know our area extremely well and have a track record of working constructively across Council to get the best outcomes for residents. Successfully promoted: infrastructure rebuild and stream improvements post storm events; more programmed stormwater maintenance, restoration and pest-free initiatives; town centre safety plans; pump station upgrades; funding playground renewals and new walkways like Bushglen; a youth park in Long Bay and a dog park planned for Browns Bay. Our 'Backing the Bays' team can continue to build and support strong, safe and connected communities with vibrant town centres; extend our restoration and environmental programmes; keep transport projects like Glenvar Road on-track; and advocate for better public transport links and a new harbour crossing. As a team, we can continue to make a real difference.
