Melissa Smith for City Council West Ward
Kia ora Neighbourly! My name is Melissa and I'm a candidate for the West Ward in the upcoming local elections. My priorities for the city are better transport, better housing, and action on climate change.
I'm organising some Meet and Greets in the community to chat with voters, introduce myself, and hear your concerns.
I'm feeling unwell at the moment so I don't have anything lined up for this week, but I'd love to know which places/what times you'd like to meet with me next week.
I'll also be at all the Meet the Candidate events over the next few weeks.
Please let me know below or ask me any questions about my vision for Hamilton!
Keep an eye on your mailboxes for your voting papers and make sure to send your papers back by 8 October!

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?
