Kia ora, I'm Chris Latham, and I'm passionate about helping our vibrant community thrive. Papatoetoe is a cultural melting pot, rich in diversity and strength. I live locally and work at Papatoetoe High School, which keeps me closely connected to the everyday lives and aspirations of our community. As a candidate for C&R Communities and Residents, I'm committed to putting the needs of our residents first - focusing on local safety, quality infrastructure, and supporting small businesses to thrive. I believe in Otara-Papatoetoe's future and want to help build a more prosperous, connected community where families feel safe, streets are well-maintained, and community voices are heard. I bring a balanced approach to decision-making, prioritising responsible spending and effective local services. I am honoured to earn your support. Vote Chris Latham and C&R.
