Rachel Bowen
City Councillor
Why I'm standing
I am committed to building a sustainable, equitable and compassionate city that's vibrant, connected and safe, where families and businesses thrive, creativity is nurtured and celebrated, and communities are supported and strong. I will work to find creative funding solutions that enable us to continue to enjoy community services and facilities without blowing our budget or going backwards as a city.
About me
With 12 years of experience in local government and an extensive background in regulatory and relationship management, leadership and training, I will hit the ground running. With my community knowledge, positive attitude and professional expertise, I will work collaboratively to ensure maximum value for every dollar of your rates, both now and as we navigate future challenges.
My priorities
- Value what we have and look after it, particularly our assets including earthquake prone buildings.
- Make Palmy a place where talent chooses to live: creative, exciting, vibrant, innovative, smart.
- Grow rates base and explore alternative funding opportunities and non-rates revenue.
