I am the third generation of my family to call Franklin home. I am seeking your support to be re-elected as your Councillor. I have worked hard to represent all of Franklin when making regional decisions and have contributed to many of the changes we have been seeing within Council this term while remaining accessible to our communities. We will always face a huge challenge being a mainly rural ward. We need a Councillor who understands Franklin, it's people and also the Council organisation. I will continue to push for change where it is needed and to work closely with the Local Board to continue to make Franklin's voice heard. I will continue to be open, honest and available. We might not always agree but I will always be up front, willing to listen, discuss and to fight for things that should be fought for. Please vote Andy Baker.
