Who will stand for Council?

Bob Marley said it "Get up Stand Up"

 Who will do it for us?

 Will it be you?

 For the next 2 weeks the door is open for people to nominated to get onto local government in Palmerston North, to be on the City Council & the Regional Council and also the District Health Board...and this applies to all of New Zealand.

 If I wanted to talk to someone in the council, I dont really know who I'd go to. I dont know if they'd listen, if they'd get me or if be able to articulate my views when they go to their meetings and make decisions I have to (mostly) live by.

 So I've decided I'm going to try and talk a few friends into standing for council....and I guess I havent got long.
considering standing for council?

 If you're keen, I'd be keen to know...lol.  Here's a link to the what-you'll-need-to-know report, hopefully this link works or else just go to the Palmerston North City Council website...currently its on the home page.

This is how many votes people would need.  However its city wide now, not voting by wards.
