Seeking your vote: for Waimairi Community Board
I am seeking re-election as your Community Board member of our Waimairi Ward. I am a LOCAL - I live and pay rates in our ward, and have done so for over 17 years.
Over the past weeks, I have walked the streets of our neighbourhood and met many of you. If I could not meet you, you would have found my election flyer near your front door (or in your letter-box), together with the flyers of my team-mates Sam MacDonald and Pereen Singh.
Having completed my first term, I can say I have certainly enjoyed the role and was able to make a positive contribution too. In particular, I immensely enjoyed the people-interaction aspect which this role entails, as well as being able to put rate-payers money to good use – for community groups as well as individuals; and for small and big projects which make the city a better place to live for everyone.
I promise working with the same passion, integrity, transparency and enthusiasm that I have demonstrated in the past years, and to continue to make a positive difference in the lives of people around me.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
