Ratepayers have been let down by Auckland Council with higher rates, wasteful spending, and neglected public services. It’s time to give Council a wake-up call and focus on the things that matter locally. As a Maraetai resident for over two decades, I understand the local pressures on our community, and my background with 30 years of senior leadership in logistics and infrastructure means I have the hands-on expertise needed to deliver practical solutions that maximise value for ratepayers’ money. By voting for me as an ACT candidate, you know what you are going to get: I will keep rates down, focus on effective service delivery without the wasteful spending, support our local producers by upholding property rights and reducing red tape. If you want to see common sense back around the council table, please give me one of your votes.
