Tania Salitra – Greens for Hornsby

As your Councillor, I’ve heard your frustration at being treated like a political football kicked between the two major parties – taken for granted by Liberals, punished by Labor.

Residents are angry with the Liberal incompetence that led to the recent rate increases. Handing over Epping to Parramatta Council resulting in a loss of $10 million in rates each year; the $90 million in pork-barrelled money forcing us into trophy projects we can’t afford to complete or maintain – with an unachievable deadline that could have been extended, but wasn’t. While essential services are ignored.

With over a decade of neglect by Liberals and now Labor, parents are desperate for more public schools, especially a high school. Proper resourcing for critical learning support is needed, but public schools are underfunded by $2 billion a year.

Teachers and nurses deserve more pay and better working conditions. Hornsby Hospital needs more funding. We urgently need affordable housing, well-connected cycle paths, better bus services, and more parking at Cherrybrook metro station.

State roads are a neglected mess. I want solutions for New Line Rd that improve pedestrian safety and traffic flow. The community needs to know what is in the $20 million traffic study so we can do more than just widen 1km of road.

As proved on Council, I will be the strong voice needed to stand up to state planning changes about to destroy our neighbourhoods and tree canopy. I will push to end private certification. I will fight for action on climate change and stronger laws to protect Hornsby’s precious environment.

With my background in manufacturing management and running a small business, I know how to get the job done. I have the tenacity and experience to make our community heard. Hornsby, I will represent you, not property developers. Please contact me on 0435 434 233 or [email protected]
