As your North Ward councillor I will continue to advocate for you and to respond to your requests as quickly as possible.

In my second term, I will continue to advocate for improved amenity in our city - upgrading our shopping centres, parks, gardens, roads and footpaths.

I believe upgrading our city amenity alongside ensuring efficient collection of rubbish, cleaning up graffiti and keeping our streets clean and safe should be the focus of Council.

We must retain our focus on environmentally sustainable design and grow our urban forest to counter the urban heat effect, as our city population grows.

We need to upgrade our sporting precincts such as Toorak Park and the Prahran Aquatic centre to ensure a healthy active community.

I will continue to support responsible development that adds to our city, and oppose development that impacts adversely on neighbourhood character.

We also need to look to ensure vulnerable members of our community are cared for so that all can participate in a safe vibrant city.

Stonnington can be the most livable city in the world as long as Council adopts global best practice and utilises public funds in the most efficient and effective manner.
