Informed Independent Councillors and an informed community

When electing Councillors to represent them, community members should be confident that community views will be listened to and respected.

They should expect that their elected Councillors ensure they have all the facts before they make decisions and have all the facts after decisions have been made.

They should expect transparency around Council processes and decision making.

And they have the right to be represented by a person who is not voting as a member of a coalition of the major political parties.

I have worked hard in my first term to meet these expectations but there is more to do.

I proudly represent you for a second term as an Independent Councillor for East Ward – Lane Cove.
