We asked our returning and new Councillors some questions based on their concerns and interests, so you can get to know them.
Q. Why did you nominate for Council?
I nominated because my concern with ineffective representation, and Council’s financial and planning policies, prompted me to act by offering my services to the community.
Q. What is your working/life background?
• General Manager of Brock HDT Special Vehicles
• licensed real estate agent
• Chairman Peter Brock Foundation
• Manager, Mia Mia Aboriginal Art Gallery, Templestowe
Q. What are your main interests outside Council?
My main interests include reading, golf, bicycle trails and Australian Rules football – Collingwood Football Club.
Q. What do you believe are the biggest issues facing Nillumbik in the next four years?
• Escalating rates and financial viability
• Improving the efficiency and customer service culture when providing services to the community
• Restoring balance in the debate of our future development and unlocking our full potential.
Q. It’s Sunday – family or friends drop over – where would you take them? (e.g. Eltham Miniature Railway, brunch at one of our great cafes, wine tasting or meal at a small winery, cycling along the Diamond Creek)
I would take them to one of the marvellous restaurants in Hurstbridge with a walk in parklands afterwards.
Q. What’s the best time, day or method for residents and community groups to contact you?
Email anytime – otherwise via my mobile – preferably 9am-6pm – seven days a week.
