Local Elections

Rizwan from Glen Eden

🌿 Dear Neighbours of the Waitākere Ranges, 🌿

Our community is unique — rich with diversity, natural beauty, and the strong spirit of everyday families working hard to make a better life. But too often, our voices are drowned out by the same old faces and the same old politics.

I, QURESHI, Rizwan Ahmed, am standing as a candidate for the Waitākere Ranges Local Board because I believe it’s time for fresh energy, fair representation, and real change.

✅ I will stand up for families, young people, and seniors who deserve a stronger voice.
✅ I will work to make our neighbourhoods safer, greener, and more connected.
✅ I will bring transparency, accountability, and community-first decision making.

This election is about you – your hopes, your future, and your right to be heard. Together, we can shape a board that reflects all of us, not just a select few.

🗳️ On election day, I humbly ask you to place your trust in me.
Vote for QURESHI, Rizwan Ahmed – your voice, your future.

We want to hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?

Suspicious Guy

Jan from Te Atatu South

Keep an eye on this guy, pretended to read the water meter, then wandered up the drive crowbar in hand when I asked what he wanted he said power and is there a dog.We have smart meters. He opened my neighbours gate (we are 3 units) and went in the back of her place with his crowbar. My son went round there and he took off. Police informed.
