MCLELLAN Barry - Candidate profile
Affiliation: Independent
My principal place of residence is in the Saddle Hill Community Board area.
I am married to Lana, have 3 adult children and 7 grandchildren. We have lived in Brighton for 14 years and I have recently retired.
I was born in the upper North Island, into a farming family. After school I obtained a trade. I joined the Police which brought me to the South Island in 1990. After 17 years I finished my police career at Dunedin in 2001 and worked as an agricultural contractor up until early this year.
I have had minimal involvement in local community projects but now feel it’s time to step and start to contribute.
My previous forms of employment have taught me various forms of life skills. I am a team player, a good communicator and very keen to put these skills into work for the local community, if given the opportunity.
