Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Heather from Totara Park

After a few terms away from local body politics, I have new enthusiasm and concern for our local community of Upper Hutt.

I feel as if we are at the crossroads - the left hand turn is for stagnation, the right hand turn takes us on a wide and safe road leading to a beautiful look-out where we see the valley, the hills, lakes, river and lots of satisfied people. I want to be on that road! I have served Upper Hutt previously as a local body councillor and now I want to be back there, working on your behalf. When the time comes, please vote for Heather Newell.
