Proudly Local.
Future Focused.
Local Leadership for a Growing Franklin.
Building Infrastructure Where and When It’s Needed
Growth is inevitable, but poor planning isn’t. We’re committed to fighting for infrastructure that’s delivered where it’s needed most and at the right time, not years too late. Smarter, faster investment in roading, transport, and public facilities is essential for Franklin’s future, and we’re here to push for it.
Keeping Franklin’s Rural Character Intact
As development accelerates, we must protect what makes Franklin unique. We’re committed to preserving our rural lifestyle, farmland, and village feel, while still enabling smart growth. Our vision is for a Franklin that can grow without losing its identity, where locals still recognise their neighbourhoods and way of life.
One Franklin. One Voice. Stronger Together.
We believe Franklin deserves a stronger, united voice within Auckland Council. Whether you’re from Pukekohe, Waiuku, Beachlands, or somewhere in between. We’ll work together to represent the full region with fairness and purpose. It’s about working across our towns, not dividing them. Because when Franklin speaks as one, we’re powerful.
Backing Events, Volunteers and Community Groups
Community spirit is Franklin’s beating heart. We’ll champion the people and groups who organise events, support neighbours, and give back. Whether it’s local sports, school galas, or volunteer services, we believe in empowering those who bring our towns together. Through funding, practical support, and strong representation at the board table.
Protecting Franklin’s Natural Environment and Waterways
Our region’s beauty is a big part of what makes Franklin special. We’ll continue to advocate for better protections of our bush, waterways, coastlines, and natural resources, because once it’s gone, it’s gone. We want future generations to enjoy the same green spaces and clean environment we’re proud of today.
Creating Local Opportunities for Local Youth
Young people deserve more reasons to stay and thrive in Franklin. From access to skills training and jobs, to safe spaces and recreation, we want to help shape a future where our kids don’t feel they have to leave to succeed. Investing in youth is investing in our long-term community health.
