Lives in Wattle Downs. Attends St Anne's Catholic Church. Grew up in Papakura and attended Papakura High School. Daniel Newman was the only South Auckland Councillor who voted against a fortnightly household rubbish collection trial. He supports the retention of the weekly household rubbish collection service - a weekly service for Manurewa's and Papakura's public health and cleanliness. Daniel is always the go-to councillor for local club and other charity projects, e.g. refurbishments at Homai Bowls, Weymouth Rugby, Manurewa Rugby, Manurewa Tennis, Manurewa Squash, Papakura Tennis and Squash, Manukau Cricket, Papakura City FC, Conifer Grove Netball, Papakura Coastguard, Papakura Community Patrols, Manurewa Methodist Church, Shiv Mandir, the Takanini Gurdwara, and the Nanaksar kitchen replacement. Daniel also helped secure 120 Hill Road expand the Auckland Botanic Gardens. He wants Mill Road completed, new train services to Drury, and grade separation in Takanini. Please vote for Daniel and every other Action candidate.
