Dick Quax- Proven Leadership

Who will you vote for?

Not having to run an election campaign has been somewhat of a luxury for me and a good opportunity to evaluate candidates running for Local Boards, Council and the mayoralty.   

When you cast your vote you are engaging in our democratic process.  Government of the people by the people. 

There are a total of seventeen people running for the mayoralty. Choose a candidate who is prepared to spend your hard earned rates as carefully as you spend your own money and who is prepared to keep down rates without increasing borrowing. Today the average family of four is paying nearly $900 of their rates each year just to pay the interest on the Councils debt and debt continues to rise at a $1 billion a year.

Some candidates will try and convince you that they know best. Seek out a candidate who is prepared to listen and work with your community. 

Avoid the extravagant candidates who have little regard for how hard you work for your money.

Seek out candidates who can point to a record of achievement and not just in politics.
