I believe efficiently providing the city with high quality infrastructure is a fundamental role of local government.
I would like to see:
-
funding for essential infrastructure, particularly related to stormwater, prioritised and new work and upgrades not being delayed or neglected for the sake of nice-to-haves
-
greater attention given to the fundamentals of local government, like roads, footpaths, waste management and cleaning
-
our infrastructure able to meet the added demand that will be on it through population growth, greater density and climate events
-
funding for upgrades and new work to be planned well in advance and saved for to avoid blowouts
-
high standards set in terms of what we view as acceptable for the state of our roads and footpaths
-
policy changes so that vegetation clearing occurs as needed, as well as a default regular cycle
-
the usage of Council provided public wifi reviewed and, if underutilised, withdraw this service.
