My Priorities:

• Service delivery: I will work hard to ensure that service delivery is of the highest standard. Keeping the curbs clean and the parks mowed will keep the ward beautiful and safer. I will be active with oversight in the community and help to resolve issues timeously.
• Illegal dumping:  I will regularly engage with stakeholders and community-based organisations to ensure that urgent issues like illegal dumping and sewerage problems are dealt with swiftly and efficiently.
• Healthcare: There are many senior citizens who are dependent on good healthcare from clinics and other healthcare services. I will frequently visit the old age homes and facilities caring for the aged and frail to establish the needs of the people. I will also do oversight visits at the local clinic to help ensure that the best possible service and care is provided
• Safety & Security: I have already patrolled with 2 Neighbourhood Watch groups in the community. I will engage and patrol with them regularly, creating an open line of communication so that I am constantly aware of crime related issues. I will do my best to support them in any assistance they may need from the City to make this community safer.
