Local politics has always been a passion for me. I have been privileged to advocate for Wellsford and the surrounding area for the last 9 years. We, Rural towns, and the wider region, struggle to be heard in Auckland Council. I have been successful in getting the Drainage Boards back. Advocating for better roading, introducing, Unsealed Road Improvement Program. Worker Road opening. Part of the greenways plan, Centennial Park new overbridge, Centennial Parks Management plan, replacing broken footpaths, new toilets, new playgrounds. 15 years into the 30-year plan and Rodney needs spatial and structure plans to be put in now stopping Council wastage, money on plan changes and Environmental issues. With 9 years on the local board, I would like to represent the Area for another 3 years to finish what I have started. Working for the betterment of Rodney.
