REAL LEADERSHIP FOR UPPER HUTT

As the runner-up in the last two elections I am the leading alternative for Mayor.

I bring a bold, practical approach that’s cost-effective, community-driven, and forward-thinking.

I will lead a Council that:

  • Invests in infrastructure that lasts

  • Supports local businesses and grows our economy

  • Creates real opportunities for our young people

  • Champions reliable, sustainable transport

  • Honours our heritage and protects the land we love.

I will refocus Council on what matters most: delivering core services, protecting our environment, and building a city where people feel safe, heard, and supported.

I will do this by ensuring the elected team examines plans and strategies for ways to sharpen the financial performance of Council, and focuses on regular, effective, community engagement which rebuilds trust and confidence in decisions.

Angela’s Vision for Upper Hutt

SAFER.

smarter.

Together.

“My vision is that Upper Hutt is a place where families feel safe in our homes, schools, parks, workplaces, and on our roads. A smart city that actively supports sustainable business, good environmental outcomes, and empowers young people. An Upper Hutt where our sense of belonging is beyond reproach; where people are engaged in the decisions that shape our future and actively participate in our vibrant community.”
