Thursday <strong>September</strong> <strong>15</strong> <strong>2022</strong> 13 <strong>2022</strong> LocaL ELEctions - meet your candidates Carl Bromley Standing for Mayor and Councillor for Innes Ward Paid Advertising Feature Hello, Kia Ora! I’m Carl Bromley. I am honoured to stand for Christchurch Mayor for Innes Ward as Councilor. I’m 52yrs of age, been married for 27yrs to an amazing woman. I have three adult children and three grandchildren. I am a Registered Nurse (non-practicing), and an ordained Pastor. I have 30yrs professionally specialising in Mental Health working with Adults, and young people, while concurrently serving the community as a Pastor, supporting families through their life journeys of ups and downs. I had a private practice as a Therapist, hence business experience. I have committed many hours to the community pro bono as a Therapist and minister. My vision is for Christchurch is to become the envy of all New Zealand through my five-point policy which I call ‘Giving Christchurch a High Five’: 1. Empowering Christchurch To Thrive 2. Freeing Christchurch To Choose 3. Supporting Christchurch To Heal 4. Leading Christchurch To Live 5. Urging Christchurch To Unite I oppose any policy, or legislation, that prejudices people based upon Race, Religion, Gender, Political <strong>View</strong>point, or Medical Status. I am a strong advocate of the New Zealand Bill of Rights, justice, safety, freedom, and health. I bring conviction, courage, commitment, and compassion. Support me to support you to secure a ‘Happy, Healthy, Thriving and Free Christchurch’ for all. Let Common sense, and the voice of the people prevail! You can find me on Facebook: www.facebook.com/CarlBromleyForMayor Authorised by Carl Bromley, carlbromley@gmail.com Phil Mauger Standing for Christchurch Mayor I am running for Mayor because I want to regain people’s trust in Council and get stuff done. With only 42% of residents having faith in what we do, this has got to be turned around. I have lived in Christchurch all my life working in our contracting business, building subdivisions and infrastructure all over the city. I have resigned from the business to focus on running for Mayor. My wife Chrissy and I have five children and nine grandchildren between us. I am the current Councillor for Burwood. I enjoy this role, but I can see how we can make things better and take Christchurch forward and make it a city that our kids and grandkids want to live in and return to. I have six policy platforms that if elected Mayor I will be promoting and actively supporting: • Keep rates affordable and reduce debt • Regain ratepayers’ confidence in the Council • Finish our roads and footpaths • Deliver core services better • Make Christchurch an even better place to live • Look after our Environment Council needs to regain your trust and listen to the community. I will work hard to do that. We need to listen to your concerns and together we need to make Christchurch the best city to work, live, play and invest in. Authorised by Phil Mauger, phil4mayor.co.nz David Meates Standing for Christchurch Mayor I’m standing for Mayor because I truly believe in the potential of Christchurch - but we need experienced, transparent and collaborative leadership to make it a reality. We need to move beyond petty, partisan, politics, for the good of our city. The top issue that I’m hearing and seeing is a lack of trust and confidence in the Council itself. In a recent poll, only 42% of 7,038 residents were satisfied with the Council’s performance; the lowest satisfaction level in <strong>15</strong> years. This needs to be addressed, as a matter of urgency - and it requires open, transparent and experienced leadership to do so. I was the CEO of the Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) from 2009 to 2020, directly responsible for 12,000 direct employees and working in partnership with a further 9,000 health professionals in the community. Now is the time to use my experience, and collaborative approach to working with residents, to make our place New Zealand’s most attractive and vibrant city. Collaboration is key for me – not just listening to and engaging with our people, but also ensuring Council works actively with the arts community, with business, with tangata whenua, with our rangatahi (young people), with universities and social enterprises. We have a range of ‘big picture’ issues that we need to grapple with as a city - climate change, housing challenges, transport and connectedness, to name a few – together we can do so much more. I look forward to working with you as Mayor to become a truly 21st Century city where innovation and connectedness thrives. I promise that I will listen, lead and get results. For more information about why I am standing, visit www.davidmeates.nz Authorised by Stella Ward, wardstella007@gmail.com The Wizard of NZ Standing for Christchurch Mayor A mayor is the democratically elected icon or face of the city, both to its citizens and to the world. Only resourceful and well-known individuals with a lengthy record of public service, influence on public affairs and independence from personal pressure, can in good faith stand for the office of Mayor of Christchurch. My position on social and cultural matters has been clearly expressed in my public actions and publications over the past fifty years. I make no secret of the fact that I share the good taste, aspirations and remarkable achievements of the Romantic Neo-Gothic founders of this special city. I am respected by those who love Christchurch and have for years stood beside those protesters who have tried to stop that dream being destroyed for money or power. As part of my heritage as a proud British subject and New Zealand citizen I despise racism especially when it is disguised as antiracism that is increasingly used as a tool to help ambitious politicians and businessmen to gain their objectives. Ask yourselves this question. What other mayoral candidate will make any substantial impact on the dysfunctional and costly complacency of the self-enriching City Council bureaucracy which behaves as if we are the public servants and they are our masters? I have demonstrated the determination and skill needed to outmanoeuvre bullies that I first demonstrated since the City Council daily tried unsuccessfully to have me arrested almost fifty years ago for “speaking out loud in Cathedral Square”. Authorised by The Wizard of NZ: jack@wizard.gen.nz Tim Scandrett INDEPENDENT Standing for re-election Thank you for supporting me as your truly independent City Councillor. I work for the people of the Cashmere Ward, not a political party. The next three years are vital as we work hard to ensure Christchurch is vibrant, inclusive, sustainable and affordable. Vote for me and I will remain your independent advocate, working with you to keep our community voice at the core of Council decision making. I will continue to meet you at my monthly clinics to understand your important issues and represent our community having heard your concerns first hand. Vote for me and I will continue to work hard towards better delivery of core council services, keeping rates affordable, mitigating effects of climate change. I will advocate strongly for improved traffic planning, road maintenance and improved community facilities (including the South Library). I will utilise my council organisational knowledge to ensure sensible spending and the continued implementation of slow speed neighbourhoods, especially around our schools. While we must face serious environmental issues, I do not support the government’s 3 Waters legislation in its current format. I support sensible housing Intensification, not the current intensification proposals being forced on Christchurch communities. I am your current Councillor with the best local and institutional knowledge to optimise our community’s future. We need to protect neighbourhoods so future generations can enjoy Christchurch too. Your support will ensure I remain your Councillor.
