Introducing Shore Action candidate Melanie Kenrick!
"I was raised in Birkenhead, and I’m raising my family here. I love Kaipātiki and will work hard for this area.
I worked for over a decade as a senior mental health nurse and team leader. I am now an education charity trustee and kids’ sports coach. I have the skills and experience to work effectively with the wide range of people within Kaipātiki. I will push hard to get favourable outcomes for our community interests, with organisations like Auckland Transport.
I will advocate for Kaipātiki on: solutions to traffic congestion; improving our parks, sports and recreational facilities; promoting initiatives to get rid of pests or threats to our native bush; reducing the rubbish and wastewater polluting our streams and coastline; completing the walking and cycleway over the harbour bridge; and more!"
Shore Action is standing 6 strong members for the Kaipātiki Local Board and we'll be profiling them here over the next week. Stay tuned to meet the rest of our team.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.3% ... It is complicated
