Welcome!

As a council we are successfully lifting our city's reputation. We must continue to invest in city improvements, while sensibly monitoring our debt levels. Our portfolio structure allows us to communicate and listen to your views.

As your representative I am committed to all of these and passionate about cleaner lakes and inner city revitalisation. This includes safer cycling, city art and public-private partnerships with iwi investment.

Thanks Your Your Support!


Provisional results have just been announced for the 2010 Rotorua Local Body Elections.  I am delighted to have been returned for a second term on Council, having polled fifth out of 28 candidates with a provisional total of 7574 votes.   I am very grateful for the support I have received and assure you all that I will continue to work hard as your representative on the Rotorua District Council.

A summary of the results as they stand can be found at http://www.rdc.govt.nz/YourCouncil/Elections.aspx.  Voter turnout was looking a little lower than 2007, but 1400 votes were received today and still need to be included in the final count.

Congratulations to my re-elected and newly elected fellow councillors: Cr Bentley, Cr Calnan, Cr Donaldson, Cr Gould, Cr Kenny, Cr Maxwell, Cr McVicker, Cr Searanke, Cr Sturt, Cr Waaka and Cr Wepa.  Congratulations also to Mayor Kevin Winters who has been re-elected to lead the council for his third term.

Best wishes are due to all those who stood, but were unsuccessful this time.  I wish you all the best for your future endeavours.Preliminary results are expected to be updated later today or early tomorrow, so there may be some adjustments to the final standings.  The successful candidates will be sworn in at a ceremony to be held at the inaugural council meeting to be held at the Council Chambers on 28th October.

Thank you again for your support.  YIPPPEEEEEEEE!
