Why am I standing?
WHAT’S GOING WRONG?
-
People cannot afford the rising costs driven by Council decisions.
-
Council processes are bogged down by bureaucracy, with no real effort to fix the system or deliver better outcomes.
-
Resource consents are facing significant delays, holding up positive investment.
-
Relationships with communities and stakeholders are strained and need rebuilding.
-
Rural school bus costs are stopping some students from attending high school.
WHAT I’LL DO
-
I will stand up against unsustainable rate increases.
-
I will push for greater efficiencies (internally and externally).
-
I will prioritise the delivery of core services that meet our needs now and for future generations.
KEY ISSUES I STAND FOR
-
Prioritises core services: Water and waste management, robust flood protection, affordable and reliable transport (including school buses) and robust emergency management.
-
Fairness, Transparency & Accountability: These are key to a thriving society—and Horizons must lead by example.
-
Less Red Tape: Let’s focus on practical solutions for residents and small, family-run businesses.
-
Economic Growth: Support long-term progress through wise infrastructure investment.
