My goal is to help revitalise Adelaide as an inclusive and exciting city that is sustainable and prosperous.

 

As a city resident with substantial  Local and State Government urban planning experience, I offer informed and balanced representation. I am passionate about Adelaide’s future and committed to the social, environmental and economic bottom line and confident I would “hit the ground running” and make a difference.

 

I understand the need for care in mixed use environments and am keen to provide greater certainty for all by addressing planning laws to improve residential amenity whilst protecting the rights of business and cultural activities.

 

I am also interested in the CBD’s future as a retail, business and cultural precinct and dedicated to working with business and residents to pursue its potential.  I believe that Rundle Mall and Hindley Street should be improved following the work on North Terrace and seek a united vision for South Australia’s “Market Quarter” (Central Market, China Town, Gouger and Grote Streets) to realise its potential as a jewel in Adelaide's crown.

A city pedestrian, I also advocate for a safe walking network connecting the tram, a free east/west bus service and car parking facilities throughout the CBD.

 

Most of all, with global warming increasingly a reality, I don't want to look back one day and regret that I had not tried to make a difference!
