We are reviewing policies, attending functions, listening to people's issues and raising funds to be able to mount a media campaign to persuade voters that we are a better option to Kevin Byrne's (dis)Unity Team. And in our spare time, we are all trying to earn a living!
It's a tough job but we are driven by the passion to make Cairns better than it is and are assisted by numerous supporters who also want Cairns to head in a different direction. We want a thriving tropical city where: people are valued, respected and listened to, services are properly planned to meet our needs, we look after the locals as well as the tourists, decision-making is open and accountable and not behind closed doors, and the environment, charm and character of our city is retained.
We learnt a lot last time. Many people did not give us a chance of toppling the incumbents and were surprised when I received nearly 42% of the vote in the mayoral election. This time we will work to get over the line and make this region the best it can be. Val

Good Luck Val, So close last time, a Cairns First change for this region would be a positive one.
