Standing Up for Local Businesses

I am championing local businesses facing challenges with expansion due to planning restrictions. During recent visits to Oakland International and Atwell Farm, I met with business leaders to discuss the barriers to growth and how planning policies impact job creation and economic development.

Local businesses are the backbone of our community. While we must protect our environment, we also need a planning system that supports growth and opportunity.

I am committed to working with councils and government to ensure local businesses have the opportunities they need to thrive.
