HOULAHAN Carmen - Candidate profile
Affiliation: Independent
My principal place of residence is in the Dunedin City Council area. I am also standing for Mayor.
I do not support taking almost 60 carparks away in Albany Street for inner city cycle lanes. If elected, I’ll oppose it. It impacts on businesses and parking.
As a former journalist I am not afraid to ask hard questions and challenge transparency. I am an open, honest and fair person and I will speak out to lobby for our city. I will continue to fight for our hospital and work to reduce rates and question the cost and time it takes to build. My master’s in entrepreneurship helps me to see problems as opportunities and an ability to work collaboratively. I will work with other councillors as together we can be a stronger voice for Dunedin. I don’t want what’s best for a team or a political party I want what is best for Dunedin.
Vote Carmen Houlahan number one for Council.
