Rebecca Gale Collins - Group A Liberal

Running with: Kerry Anne Delaney and Colin Marchant

Q. What do you consider to be the most important issue facing the Ward you would be elected to represent?

A. The Liberal candidates understand the community needs, and will work with all levels of Government to fight for our fair share of funding on the Central Coast, including where it's needed the most across the Gosford East Ward.

Issues my team is passionate about tackling include the Hardys Bay foreshore upgrade, and dredging of Ettalong channel.

Q. What do you consider to be the most important issue facing the Central Coast Local Government Area?

A. The Central Coast Council is the third largest Council in New South Wales with a residential population of 334,000.

We need to deliver for ratepayers with better roads, infrastructure and community engagement and above all to ensure every dollar of the Council budget is spent to benefit Central Coast locals.

Q. How would you, if elected to Council, set about addressing that issue for (a) your Ward, (b) the region?

A. Liberal Councillors will ensure Central Coast Council is delivering key infrastructure projects across our Central Coast region, and that local government is financially sound.

Our Liberal candidates will ensure the $204 million Capital Works budget is spent in our Central Coast region.

Only a strong Liberal Council will protect and grow our $9.6 billion in assets.

Liberal Party candidates will be out in the community engaging with as many Coasties as possible to hear what issues matters most to people across the Central Coast region.

With over 15 years of community engagement experience, I enjoy connecting with people of all ages and backgrounds.

My work experience includes a small business events management company, Federal Government, education, employment and disability sector.
