For a Council that Listens
As a prospective councillor for the City of Greater Bendigo it is my goal to bring transparency and accountability to the elected council officers and council employees alike. Listen to the community and openly show the changes being made to the community including the stages of ongoing, future operations and projects.
I believe in a Rate freeze and cost reductions to help all ratepayers as we come out of these hard times. I’ll support refocusing priorities towards local industry and the local economy to create greater job opportunities such as creating a new Technology-centric industry as we come out of COVID.
It is of paramount importance to support the growing needs of the community and to take seriously the voices of the rate-payers, encourage people to have a say as it will be heard and acted upon.
I am about building long term goals for the region and supporting local business to get the job done. Bringing jobs back to the people of Bendigo.
As a Golden Square resident and local businessman it is my intention that Bendigo Council builds a sustainable future which depends on positive forward planning. I stand for transparency, accountability and support a responsive new council.
The time for change is now and I will support ongoing external reviews of council. More support for Lockwood ward people, families, communities, business, clubs and organisations to give everybody a fair go.
Footpaths, drainage upgrades and better road maintenance are high priorities to allow safer linkages for the Lockwood Ward residents, together with a visionary transport plan.
Tackle costly projects, overblown budgets and staffing costs under the current council and convert funds into meaningful projects offering a sustainable financial return for the community within the Lockwood Ward and across Bendigo council region.
