I’ve been a councillor for 17 years and seek your support for a Districtwide seat.

Outside of council I coordinate primary schools sport events, Sports Patron for Special Olympics, life member of the Kāpiti running and tri club.
During my 17 years as a councillor I have seen the construction of the Library, Hockey Turf, the introduction of Kerbside recycling. In the last triennium the new Aquatic Centre, the purchase of land for new parks, and a dam, and secure water management.
Challenges for the next triennium include the completion of the expressway the reorganisation of local government in the region and to keep rates affordable.
