About me

Dobro Dosli, Kia Ora, Far North! I’m Marty, and I am running as a candidate for the Northland Regional Council. I am born and bred in Kataia. My principal place of residence is in the Far North Constituency. I have served the community in various roles for many years including 25 years in sport and have served as a voluntary fireman. I will continue serving in the years to come.

I believe we have an incredible opportunity to shape a stronger, more vibrant future for our community. I am committed to being a dedicated and accessible voice for everyone.

My priorities

I am running for the regional council because I am passionate about three key areas that are vital to our region’s wellbeing and prosperity:

Economic Development and Local Business: I am all about balance—supporting our local businesses, promoting sustainable tourism, and creating new job opportunities, all while harnessing the potential of our people, land and sea.

Infrastructure and Community Services: Integrating the regional and district councils and their bureaucracies, I will be the voice for balance and common sense.

Environment: The natural beauty of the Far North is our greatest Taonga. I will support initiatives that protect our waterways, enhance conservation efforts, and promote sustainable practices to preserve our environment for future generations.

Get in touch

I believe in open communication, responsible governance, and a collaborative approach. I want to hear your ideas, concerns, and aspirations. If elected, I will be a tireless advocate, always putting the needs of our community first. The Far North needs a strong local voice.

Thank you for your consideration. I would be honored to earn your vote.
