An independent and community-focused voice, I don’t answer to any political party and will work with anyone committed to building a better Whau. I’m a current Whau Local Board member and former Chair of the New Lynn Business Association. I bring experience delivering for the Whau, where my family and I are proud to call home. If elected, I’ll advocate to retain green space at Avondale Racecourse, deliver an aquatic and recreation centre, enhance our waterways and environment, and improve transport options and infrastructure, including advocating for the Avondale-Southdown rail line. I’ll also work to create safer, more vibrant town centres, plan sensibly for future growth, and support local business and economic development. With your support, I’ll remain a dedicated, independent voice focused on real progress and local outcomes, making the Whau a thriving place to live and work. Let’s put the future of the Whau first. Vote Piper.
