Candidate statement
It's been my privilege to serve Botany on the Local Board since 2017, bringing practical, grassroots solutions that strengthen our community. I seek re-election to continue to protect our community assets, manage the budget prudently, and do the basics well. I have raised my family locally for 21 years, working in executive non-profit leadership, supported schools, youth development, cultural relations, and governance as a Trustee of my children's school board. Together with fellow Local Board members, we have delivered projects that matter: safer transport near schools, upgrading playgrounds and council facilities, the Botany youth space, expanded library facilities, and industrial waste programmes. Representing the Board with the Business Association, I champion local businesses and youth employment. I oppose the sale of public reserves and vigilantly keep Auckland Transport accountable and transparent. I humbly ask for your vote. Please vote visit www.votebotany.org. Mike Turinsky - Practical, not Political.
