2020 ACT Candidate for the Waikato Electorate
Greetings neighbours,
Just a very quick post to introduce myself following the announcement of most of our candidates this week.
I’m a Hamilton local and live here with my wife and daughter. I own and manage several small businesses, including an immigration law firm. I also work for a large NGO in the mental health sector, and am involved in a range of community organisations (with a focus on the arts and music).
Happy to answer what I can, but please keep it civil. Political candidates from all parties receive an unbelievable amount of abusive emails and messages from the general public and I would quite like to discourage that where I can!
Please note that I generally won’t be posting on Neighbourly, rather the best way to stay up to date is by liking my public page: www.facebook.com...

What do you make of this purchase?
Those involved in ploughing $1.6m in ratepayer cash into a property in Te Aroha which can’t be used for its intended purpose and is unlikely to be sold without taking a loss are defending their decision.
In June 2022, the Matamata-Piako District Council agreed to buy a 7.2ha rural-zoned lifestyle block on the outskirts of Te Aroha for $1.29m, intending re-zone it as industrial.
