Ross Church – Profile

Hi. Ross Church. KCDC Councillor. Tutor in business.
Autoclassics business owner. 33 year Kāpiti resident.
Having spent 3 years as a Councillor I would love to take the next step.
In 2010 I was appalled at the projected rates increases of 10, 11 and even 12%. As chair of Corporate Business Committee I helped get that down to an average under 5%. Better, and there’s still room for improvement,and we’ve bought the vital dam land and the equally vital playing fields/green belt.
In the next 3 years Kāpiti needs to make the best of the impending
amalgamation, so that our rates aren’t lost into super-city coffers,
without local representation.
The current administration has been perceived as uncommunicative.
Change is needed. Council needs open, transparent leadership. Your mayor needs to be available, and responsive, to you.
I support and encourage developments which improve the economic health of Kāpiti.
