Manningham City Council election candidates

Hi, I’m Dimitri. I’ve lived in Bulleen for almost a decade. Our community is decaying, and property developers are getting their way every time. As a tradesperson, I can say that the quality of housing has been traded for cheap but extremely profitable houses. Housing is a human right, and it has fallen into the hands of greedy investors. In a wealthy society like Australia, everyone should have the chance to live a decent life. But today, only the people at the top are growing their wealth. Councils have a responsibility to help turn this situation around and tackle urgent issues like the housing shortage and cost-of-living crisis. I’ve been a socialist for many years. I have stood with Indigenous people in the fight against racism. I have been involved in the fight against the big corporations that are burning up our planet. And now you can find me in the protests in solidarity with the people of Palestine. It is time we took our society back—and gave more say, power and wealth to the working-class people who make it run. If elected, with Victorian Socialists, I’ll fight for our community and for a council that puts people before profits.

My vision for our community is to help all resident voices be heard by Council and make Manningham an even more vibrant place to live, work, and enjoy. I’ve lived happily here for 9 years and run my health business in Bolin Ward. As a qualified Social Worker and local business owner with two degrees and a master's from Melbourne University, I have empathy, skills and experience to effectively serve and represent both residents and businesses. As a health professional who also mentors young people at Melbourne University, I spend my workdays helping people, a key quality for an elected Councillor. I promise to listen and respond to the diverse needs of our community, from older adults, children, and families, to addressing cost of living pressures, inappropriate development and reliable council services. I’m actively involved in the community as a committee member of Templestowe Bowling Club and member of the Manningham Business Network, promoting local business connections. I’m passionate about a cost-effective Council, balancing economic growth with social harmony in our open spaces and neighbourhoods. I stand for integrity, compassion, respect, and fairness. If elected, I promise to listen, consult, and work hard for your interests. For more information: www.rosephoenixhealth.com/vote-judge-valerie

As a teacher, I dedicated my life to enhancing educational opportunities for all. I will bring that same passion for justice and the principle of a fair-go to Manningham Council. Having served as a representative on Council’s Doncaster Rail Advocacy Committee, I will continue to push for improved public transportation in Manningham. We are the only metropolitan area in Melbourne without a train or tram service. I will support and fight for compensation for those affected by the North-East Link construction. They have been subjected to excessive noise, dust and other severe disruptions. All residents will benefit from measures to mitigate increased pollution and adverse impacts. I will address the serious cost-of-living crisis facing residents strained by Council, who have increased charges significantly while being reluctant to spend their significant cash balance on the community and advocate for charges to be reduced and initiatives to assist those struggling financially. I’ll oppose privatisation or outsourcing of council services such as In-Home Aged Care. I will speak up for local groups impacted by rights violations including Women- Life- Freedom movement, permanent ceasefires in Gaza and Ukraine. As your Councillor I’ll work tirelessly ensuring what matters most to you receives full representation.

Keep standing with Gough! Your support has allowed me to protect our community's needs and values. My demonstrated experience and local knowledge ensures I deliver when it matters. In these very tough times we can't afford to have a distracted Council that is indifferent to serving the real needs and values of our area. We need to reset, getting back to basics to properly do the things that count; Creating reliable community services and functional buildings, improving roads, footpaths, drains, streetscapes, parks, playgrounds etc. Restoring focus on these things and not virtue signalling fringe agendas enables Council to deliver more whilst keeping rates low. I defend cautious financial management and lower rates. I foster social cohesion and don't trigger division. eg. Wasting money on costly insulting street signs that demand residents to stop being racist. The North East Link works are creating chaos and I'll continue working tirelessly to gain meaningful concessions for our community. eg. I'll campaign to deliver rapid bus services to the city along Templestowe and Bulleen roads to fix public transport gaps in our area. I'm relentlessly fighting to restore the values and priorities making our area a great place to live. Keep standing with Gough!

It has been an honour to serve as your local Councillor over the last 8 years including 2 years as Mayor. I am proud to have delivered improved footpaths, parks and playgrounds while keeping rate increases lower than inflation. I will be seeking to improve Council efficiency, improve street lighting and nature strip tree selection and pursue higher standards of maintenance and cleanliness of our parks, playgrounds, roads and drains. Having lived in Currawong ward with my wife and raising our 8 children here over 21 years, our family believe we live in the best area in the best country in the world and I want to keep it that way. I bring 30 years professional engineering experience, 13 years Board Director experience, 10 years coordinating a local basketball club and 8 years as a Manningham Councillor to making sound policies and wise decisions based on what is best for residents and our community. Please contact me with your questions. andrew.conlon24@gmail.com 0425732238. Keep our streets safe and our parks beautiful. Keep rates reasonable. Keep Council focused on local issues. Keep Manningham in safe hands. Vote 1 CONLON, Andrew and remember to number all the boxes. Thank you for your support.

I am Kelvin Lim, originally from multicultural Malaysia and now proud to call Australia my home. My family has been an integral part of the Manningham community for many years. As a locally practicing lawyer with over 25 years of experience, I have served as a legal advisor for various non-profit organizations and provided community and pro bono legal services. My wife works as an educator at a local childcare center, and our three teenage children have attended neighborhood public schools. Throughout my career, I have developed a deep understanding of the challenges faced by our community. I have observed how residents' voices are often insufficiently heard and their concerns inadequately addressed. I am standing for election because I believe I can make a positive change. My goal is to create meaningful improvements in our community and address issues that matter to the community. I aspire to build a more vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable community. As a multilingual, mature, dedicated, respectful, insightful and team player, I believe my skill set and rich experience makes me an ideal candidate for local councillor. I am committed to representing your interests and would be honored to have your support in this election.

A former banker and public servant, I am an entrepreneur and a social justice advocate. I have been a volunteer social worker for a number of years in providing settlement services and food relief to marginalised communities. I love living in our wonderful community, but as we all struggle with the cost-of-living and rental/housing crises, we need our council to do more to support our community. If elected as your Councillor, I will prioritise: [1] advocating expansion of essential services that will assist in alleviating cost-of-living pressures such as maternal health, community childcare, libraries and recreation - like sporting facilities and playgrounds; [2] supporting better connected and more frequent public transport; [3] measures to bring down your power bills and take climate action through solar bulk-buying, including for renters; and [4] sustainable development that protects our green spaces and local heritage.

I bring 32 years of dedicated service to the diverse community of Manningham, consistently achieving positive outcomes in youth and family services, and for recreational organizations. Extensive experience advocating to the Council equips me to focus on what matters most to you. As an independent candidate, I am committed to addressing local issues that we can meaningfully impact. I believe in building a strong, connected community. While state and federal politics often divide us, a locally focused Council can unite our community. People of all ages, nationalities, and genders should have the opportunity to live in safety, harmony, and comfort. My priorities include supporting our aging population with enhanced services, increasing community safety through improved street lighting and graffiti reduction to reduce crime. Maintaining open spaces to ensure community access to recreational opportunities, planning that better addresses overcrowding on suburban streets, and supporting local businesses. Managing a $150 million budget requires reviewing staffing levels and eliminating redundant programs. With the pressures of cost of living and rate increases, I am committed to the prudent use of council funds to benefit residents. Please, let me work for you. For a better, safer, and more connected community, Vote 1 Darryl Kilmartin. 0433075400

I live in Donvale with my wife and three daughters. We have been residents of Manningham and surrounds since 2002.

In those roles I have a strong track record of delivering fresh vision and change. I want Council to be focussed on the things that make our neighbourhood more livable and inviting. We don't need party agendas. Council should be focussed on delivering efficient services to our community and effective long term planning. Our current Councillors have increased rates by 10% since 2021. I will be focussed on delivering better value for ratepayers and slowing down rate rises. I know what it takes to push for efficiencies while delivering great services. Our neighbourhood character is at risk of being eroded by inappropriate development which I will oppose.

I’m your current Councillor and former Deputy Mayor. As an urban planning specialist and long-term local, I understand the smallest of changes can improve our daily life and wellbeing.

This ensures our community spaces remain accessible to everyone, from young families to our aging population. If re-elected as your Councillor, I’ll: [1] advocate for frequent and better connected bus routes; [2] expand essential services such as our libraries, maternal health and community childcare like the new Tunstall Kinder room; [3] support an active community through community sporting facilities, playgrounds and open spaces which we all love; [4] protect our local tree canopy and natural environment, a key reason why we live here; and [5] promote transparency and accountability on council by continuing to support more information released to the public.

My name is Amanda, and I pledge to support a two year freeze on council rates. Cost of living pressures have hurt our residents and we are not receiving services that could have been adequately funded by our council. Projects and programs that are funded need to have the outcome that directly benefit our residents in the community. Ratepayers want to see revenue spent strategically and residents want to see direct benefits back to the entire community. A shuttle bus can be provided free of charge for our local council area for our community to travel that is disability -friendly, suitable for all seniors and young families, needs consideration by council. We need oral health care service delivery funded between our council and the Victorian government ensuring that every local resident can receive basic community oral health care. We must see future council rates decreased and an inclusiveness of residents with deciding on any spending of projects. Council needs to get back to the basics and essential services for our local community. We need transparency and accountability by everyone working in and for our Council. Please Vote 1 for Paliouras, Amanda to give your power back to our local community.

I encourage initiatives that foster community connection, particularly for our multicultural, elderly, and youth communities. An outcome of my advocacy is the new Youth Hub at Doncaster Library. If re-elected, I will support the council’s plans to invest in Aquarena, enhancing the outdoor area with essential improvements.

In the last election, our councillors promised to freeze rates, yet rates have surged by 9.8%. This increase could have been avoided with a focus on addressing our community’s real needs. Families are already grappling with high interest rates, rising utility bills, and inflation, making this extra burden unacceptable. Manningham deserves leadership that can ease the financial strain on families while delivering real results for our community. As a successful business owner with a proven record in financial management, I know how to get things done efficiently and effectively. If elected, I will focus on wiser and smarter spending, ensuring our Council delivers on what matters to our community the most: community well-being and essential services, all while avoiding unnecessary financial pressures on residents. It is time for action on our community’s most pressing needs. Our roads require urgent maintenance, our streets need better management and cleaning, and our parks are long overdue for revitalisation. My leadership is built on real word experience, and I am committed to delivering tangible improvements that enhance the quality of life for all. Let’s work together to create a Doncaster that is safer, cleaner, and more vibrant for every family.

Dear Fellow Residents of Manningham, my family have proudly called Manningham home since early 90. Over the years, I’ve come to appreciate the rich cultural diversity of our community, and I firmly believe that my background and experiences uniquely position me to contribute positively to our council. In recent years, many households in our community have felt increasing financial pressure. If elected, my top priority will be to seek out opportunities to freeze or minimize council rate increases. With the increase in high-density living, it’s vital to ensure that we also foster green spaces. I will champion the creation of more Community Gardens, offering residents in apartments and units a chance to engage with nature and grow their own produce. Development is crucial for our city’s growth, I will support smarter, medium-sized developments that enhance our city without compromising its character. My vision for Manningham is an open and efficient council that listens, and acts on the issues that matter most to you. I am dedicated to serving without political affiliation, focusing solely on what is best for our community. If you value a councilor who is committed to financial relief, smart development, and sustainability, I ask for your support.

I’m Alki Poon, I'm running for Waldau Ward to give a voice to those who feel ignored and underrepresented. My journey to Australia in 2022, escaping the protests in Hong Kong, taught me that freedom requires participation. This is why I’m stepping up—to pay my civic duty to inspire others, to enlighten people the importance of democracy and freedom, especially migrants. As an Executive Assistant in the Financial industry, I learned the value of hard work, fiscal responsibility and smart decision-making. I believe our council should focus on delivering services to residents, free from personal or political agendas. We cannot afford to let inexperience or self-interest dictate our future. I’m here to represent everyone, especially those battling rising costs of living. I know what it’s like to struggle and believe in helping those who need it most—especially our elderly, who built the foundation of our community. Council must be a place that strengthens our community and fosters growth. I believe in equal opportunity, where effort and hard work are rewarded. Together, we can make our voices louder and bring real change to Manningham. Join me, and let’s shape a better future for our community. Together, we can make a difference.

Actions speak louder than words. I have worked tirelessly to deliver: Waldau Ward Newsletter; Youth Advisory Committee & Employment Program; Libraries opening hours extended; Small E-waste Recycling Stations; increased spending on parks, roads, footpaths including new footpath on Andersons Creek Road and Blackburn Road. If re-elected, I will continue advocating for youth employment opportunities, cultural & arts events for youth and young families. I am committed to positive ageing to help older adults stay healthy and independent for longer. As a long term Waldau Ward resident and Neighbourhood Watch volunteer, I understand local concerns. I will endeavour to improve public safety including well designed and quality lightings for pedestrians, promote crime prevention measures to make Manningham safer and more liveable. As a lawyer and a volunteer solicitor at the Eastern Community Legal Centre for 15 years, I value equity, inclusion and positivity. I stand for common sense climate solutions and sustainable development. I will continue pushing for better bus services. Every dollar counts. No unrealistic promises, only practical approaches. I will work hard to maximise public value through efficient budget management. I am not aligned with any political party. Vote 1 Chen, Anna as your voice in Council.

As a mother of three children attending public and Catholic schools, I understand the challenges families face.

I will also oppose inappropriate development to preserve our local environment. Together, we can build a more inclusive, affordable, and sustainable future for Manningham.

I am a university educated small business owner and a longtime resident and renter in Templestowe who supports maintaining green space, improving bicycle and mobility scooter infrastructure so that we can all move more freely and safely without every journey involving the car.

Currently I am a single parent living in a share house with 2 pensioners, 4 chooks, a dog and my son. I enjoy bike riding, camping, gardening and DJing. My business is in the new energy sector of lithium batteries, it's small, just me at the moment. You might see me about riding with my son to school and back on my yellow electric trike. If you do, stop me for a chat or a whinge. Let's work together to improve the local area and I won't be able to do that without your input. I'm eager to hear what you think so let's start talking.
