I have been a resident/ratepayer of this area for 40 years − Beachaven, Chatswood, Glenfield, Birkenhead. As such I offer my life skills and experience to represent my community. I stand and will advocate for: no privatisation of water; reduced liquor outlets and bylaws requiring transparent, community approval for any and all licensed and relicensed premises; fair and equitable rates based on a percentage of value system; promotion of our environment; promotion of family and family values; enhancement of community by actively seeking community input and opinion; old style local apprenticeship scheme to assist youth employment prospects; a specific percentage income of actual rates for local purposes; income generation in ways other than rate increases; to ensure the new council is budget conscious and fully accountable; practical, transparent governance.
