Safety and prosperity for Waitemata

Ming Schaumkel

Living locally means I understand what's at the heart of the community, Waitemata is a thriving and progressive community and I'm proud to say its real treasures are its people.

Safety and prosperity are two key drivers for us. Keeping our environment safe for our children, families and communities means getting the simple things right.

We want to create a prosperous community by supporting small businesses so they feel safe, protected and supported. We want to invest in creating partnerships with our community, to nurture and grow alongside one another.

I want to serve you, the place I was born and raised. I want to bring my work and community experience to our board table, building strong trusting connections with people from diverse backgrounds. I will ensure decisions made are fair and equitable to serve all of our community and I will deliver on the trust you place in me.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
