Community

 

A strong, thriving local economy will allow us to invest in social infrastructure and the community. Thriving communities are essential to a world-class progressive capital city. 

• Provide lighting and safe streets.

• Upgrade park-spaces and sports fields.

• Help our libraries survive in an ever-evolving digital world.

• Work with central government on social and affordable housing as appropriate.

• Investigate seeking support from philanthropists to enhance patient, doctor and family experiences when coping with cancer treatments in Wellington.

• Be urban innovators and global leaders in upgrading our city places and spaces.

• We should celebrate our diversity and ensure we are connected. I will continue to support community events, festivals and activities that highlight our wonderfully diverse city and bring people together.

• Wellington is New Zealand’s mountain biking & walking capital. We need to continue to maintain and develop our extensive track network.
