Bethlehem Ward Candidate Tauranga Elections 2024

Bevan from Judea

Kia Orana, Bevan Rakoia here, I am standing for the Bethlehem Ward at this 2024 Tauranga Local Elections. Since my decision to put my hand up, I have wondered why the ward is not called Bethlehem/Judea. I am raised in Judea on Chester Street and moved up on Cambridge Road just before the first COVID Lockdown. I remember walking to school daily to Otumoetai College and Otumoetai Intermediate, I still ask myself why the local parks in our suburbs have been neglected, Chester Street, 2 swings and one seesaw, I think its been like this from the day 1. It is amazing the growth around Judea since the 80's. I would prefer to spend the next weeks running around Judea and meeting with the neighbours. Happy to connect and share opinions by email bev_a_lev@yahoo.com, or mobile phone 0274612127 or message via Neighbourly. Speak soon. Bevan - Bethlehem Ward Candidate Authorised bev_a_lev@yahoo.com | Tauranga
