Geoff Hayward

My name is Geoff Hayward and I'm a Councillor for the Onepoto Ward in Porirua City.

Living in Porirua reminds me of what great communities are about: people proud of where they live, bringing a diverse range of experiences, culture and knowledge, but also sharing their passion for each other.

But there are some things that a community, no matter how strong it is, cannot do alone. We need someone to make sure our main roads are able to handle the traffic, we want to make sure that communities feel safe enough to have their kids play outside, we want to know that our local environment is being looked after. We don't want our houses to flood when the storm water systems fail.

Porirua City is the Kaleidoscope City: our strength comes from the weaving of cultures and languages from across the entire world, from our tangata whenua, to the pacific ring, and beyond. 

Because together, we can build a city that thrives for everyone.
