Positive leadership with proven results
It’s been a privilege to serve as your Mayor over the last three years. I’m running again because I love Hamilton and want to keep building on our work.
I want a safer city that’s easy to get around and celebrates its people, achievements and natural beauty. When it comes to three waters, I voted against it as it’s not right for Hamilton.
Voting papers are currently being delivered to letterboxes around Hamilton.
I’m asking for your support to be re-elected as Mayor.
Council squad tasked with finding answers to buried report
Hamilton City Deputy Mayor Geoff Taylor will head-up a special delegation to find out why a damning report on council procurement was buried from public scrutiny for two years.
The 2024 draft report from top financial firm KPMG has now been provided to the council’s new Finance and Assurance Committee, and reveals a total of $239 million (or 12%) of total contract values had not gone through tenders.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Bargain or big risk? Crown puts Huntly subsidence home on the market
A Crown-owned subsidence property has come on the market, but whether potential buyers reckon it’s a bargain or risky buy is yet to be seen.
While some might view the Huntly east property as a bargain, Huntly real estate agents reckoned living on top of the mining zone makes some buyers nervous they’re going to “just sink one day”. Although, the agents are fairly confident the area is safe.
