Aaron Campbell:<br />

Harewood Ward<br />

- Fendalton-<br />

Waimairi-<br />

Harewood<br />

Community Board<br />

Our local community should<br />

have more say in its future.<br />

There needs be confidence that<br />

the people elected to represent<br />

Christchurch have the interests of<br />

Christchurch at heart. Balancing<br />

social equity and economic<br />

development is required so the<br />

future can be better for everyone.<br />

We can be inclusive of the new<br />

and remember our past collectively.<br />

I have been a small business<br />

owner locally for ten years,<br />

am active in charitable fundraising<br />

both locally and overseas<br />

where I lived for nine years in<br />

England and Japan. I volunteer<br />

with Business Mentors New<br />

Zealand helping resolve issues<br />

facing small business owners.”<br />

Brian Gargiulo:<br />

Harewood Ward -<br />

city councillor<br />

I have lived in the<br />

Harewood area for<br />

60 years, owning and<br />

operating a commercial property<br />

growing tomatoes and raspberries.<br />

This operation employed<br />

up to 50 people of many different<br />

ethnicities. I am currently<br />

a company director of produce<br />

companies in NZ and overseas.<br />

People are important to me.<br />

I want to create an environment<br />

in Harewood and greater<br />

Christchurch that is conducive<br />

to a desirable quality of life in all<br />

aspects of work, travel and recreation.<br />

I take a common sense<br />

approach to all my decision making<br />

and consider how the decisions<br />

I make affect others. I can<br />

listen, learn and make decisions<br />

on your behalf.<br />

Debbie Mora:<br />

Halswell Ward -<br />

community board<br />

I am the only `local’<br />

incumbent candidate<br />

standing<br />

for Halswell Ward and I have<br />

lived here for 30 years. Living<br />

local and having experience is<br />

important and I bring this to<br />

the table. Many of the people<br />

who I have met in my Halswell<br />

Ward, including children, have<br />

all expressed a desire for a safe<br />

and vibrant community. I will<br />

continue to advocate for this<br />

and include the following: Safer<br />

roads, cheaper CCC pool entry<br />

prices, Halswell Quarry cafe,<br />

continue to listen to my community.<br />

Dr Chrys Horn:<br />

Halswell Ward -<br />

city councillor<br />

Having grown up on<br />

Halswell I returned<br />

13 years ago and<br />

have worked in this<br />

community and across greater<br />

Christchurch to support good<br />

community outcomes on issues<br />

such as resource management,<br />

transport and earthquake recovery.<br />

Initiatives I have driven<br />

include the Halswell Community<br />

Project, the Halswell <strong>News</strong>letter,<br />

the Halswell Community Website<br />

and the Halswell Market . These<br />

required good leadership, communication<br />

with residents, excellent<br />

teamwork and a capacity to<br />

strategise and get things done.<br />

I have a PhD in social science,<br />

a biophysical science training,<br />

and a professional background in<br />

environmental management and<br />

community resilience.<br />

Ross McFarlane:<br />

Halswell Ward<br />

- Halswell-<br />

Hornby-Riccarton<br />

Community<br />

Board<br />

A member of the<br />

Halswell Residents Association<br />

and the Halswell River Rating<br />

District Liaison Committee I<br />

wish to further commit to my<br />

community as your Community<br />

Board Representative. My<br />

strengths are knowledge of<br />

growth, planning, transport and<br />

rating policies for urban and<br />

rural areas. Having made many<br />

past submissions to Environment<br />

Canterbury and council Council<br />

I intend to ensure the community<br />

is informed and involved<br />

in processes affecting our<br />

immediate environment, and to<br />

facilitate the best outcomes for<br />

residents of the new Halswell<br />

Ward, encompassing Aidanfield,<br />

Awatea, Halswell, Hoon Hay,<br />

Kennedy’s Bush, Westmorland,<br />

Wigram and rural sectors. Our<br />

community is my priority.<br />

SCIRT programme on<br />

the home straight<br />

SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges<br />

and retaining walls is almost complete and we’re aiming to finish<br />

construction in December.<br />

The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing<br />

ongoing repairs to the city's earthquake-damaged infrastructure<br />

after SCIRT.<br />

Progress in your neighbourhood<br />

• We’re just finishing off repairs to the wastewater network in Upper Riccarton<br />

and Ilam.<br />

• Repairs to underground pipes and roading throughout the Hornby area are<br />

more than halfway through and will be completed in October.<br />

• Essential wastewater repairs in Aikmans Road in Merivale are progressing well<br />

and will be completed at the end of the year.<br />

Your support is helping us to get the job done. Thank you from the SCIRT team.<br />
