Councillor Nolene Raffills
Chair, Law and Order Committee

As a sitting Councillor for Avondale Roskill, I have lead new initiatives for the city to ensure that Auckland is a safe place for you to live, work and play. These included alcohol free zones, closed circuit television in the central areas, greatly enhanced graffiti removal and charging of offenders. Safety is one of the most important issues facing our city.

I have also opposed the extraordinary rates rises and the frivolous spending of your money, as well as the excessive regulation that the last Council has put in place. As part of the C&R team, I will continue to work for lower rates and sensible spending.

I love this area and I have lived here for 30 years, both in Mt Roskill and in Avondale. I have been involved in the community through numerous charitable and community initiatives.

Please vote the total C&R team.

Auckland has always been my home where I am proud to live with my wife Jeannie and our family. I am a J.P. and have served the community as president/chairman of the local Plunket, Kindergarten and Primary School.

I chaired the Aotea Centre Board for seven years opening its doors to the wider community and am Managing Director of a national housing and commercial property business.

MULRENNAN, Sue

Mt Roskill is a fabulous place. I grew up here and my husband and I have chosen to raise our family here. My children are privileged to attend excellent schools. The cultural diversity they live with is a glimpse of Auckland in the future.

My involvement in community groups within the area from Plunket to Toy Library and School Board to Parish Council has been invaluable to me and given me both skills and friends.

Mt Roskill has a rich and interesting history. The recent development of Monte Cecilia Park enriches the respect for our past. The 5 Kilometers of foreshore in our "borough" also has a rich if neglected past.

I would like to see our coastline given the same level of respect and investment as the Eastern bays.

I will be more effective if you support the total CITIZENS & RATEPAYERS team for Council and Community Board.

TAYLOR, Joshua

It is with pleasure that I seek your vote for the Mt Roskill Community Board. My family has had a long association with Mt Roskill. My grandparents moved here in the 1950's and my wife and I have lived in Roskill for most of our lives. I grew up here, attended the local schools and benefited greatly from the leadership and vision of the people in the community.

My background is in business and law and outside of work, I enjoy a wonderful family life and have been involved in different community endeavours in Roskill for many years.

Mt Roskill has a spirit, energy and character that are worth preserving and worth fighting for. I now relish the opportunity to take the baton and make a difference in the community.
