In their own words
Putting Families First. Building a Better Future for Evelyn. As a proud resident of the Evelyn electorate, I've watched our community grow rapidly. While growth brings opportunities, it also brings challenges. Traffic congestion, pressure on roads and infrastructure, community safety and housing affordability are issues affecting local families every day.
