A Stronger, Smarter, and More Accountable Wellington

A Wellington for Everyone

Wellington deserves affordable rates, responsible spending,
safer streets, and better leadership — free from party politics.

Our independent councillors stand for:

Keeping Wellington Affordable

ZERO RATES INCREASE

  • Maintain Zero Rates for the next three years and then only increase rates at the rate of inflation.
  • Cut Council Costs on unnecessary projects.
  • Prioritise core infrastructure— pipes, roads, parks, and public facilities.

No More Debt Spiral

BACK TO BASICS

  • Scrap wasteful projects – focus on essentials.
  • Audit Council departments – for efficiency and value.
  • Borrow less, spend smarter – make your rates work for you.

Planes, Trains, Buses and Automobiles

ACCESS BRINGS BUSINESS

  • Restore CBD access for all – and reinstate lost car parks.
  • Ensure Council projects support, not harm, local businesses.
  • Take a balanced approach to transport – cars, public transit, cycling, and walkability.

A Council for Everyone

NO PARTY POLITICS

  • Wellington City must take priority – not a political party.
  • Support councillors who put residents first – not personal agendas.
  • Make decisions based on what’s best for the city – party system is unacceptable.

Wellington, where everyone feels secure

A SAFER CITY

  • Zero-tolerance for anti-social behaviour.
  • Strengthen community policing for a visible presence.
  • Ensure well-lit, well-patrolled public spaces, including 24-hour CCTV in the CBD.

Our Commitment to Wellington

We will restore confidence in leadership, deliver real results, and put Wellingtonians first.
