I have learnt through life that the truth at any cost lowers all other costs. Quantity Surveyor, I have an ability that no other councillors will have. I can work out the lowest possible cost of any project. Data Analyst, I want to produce a lot more data so that we can scrutinise the spending that council commits too. Granular data will be the first step in understanding and controlling how council spend. Accountability, better data means that you can choose your vote based on what each councillor intends to spend, not on what they represent. Losses, everything can be measured as losses. Lost time or lost money! Efficiency, my focus will be on recording inefficiency so that we can eliminate the unnecessary cost burden that it creates on your rates. Time, I intend creating a set of benchmark measurements that record the hours/lifetimes lost every year because of council.
