A local government election will be held on Saturday 14th September 2024.
We contacted the candidates running for City of Ryde, City of Parramatta, Lane Cove and Hunters Hill to find out more about who will be representing us in the years to come as well as learn about their policies and plans for the local area.
In conjunction with the Ryde District Mums Facebook Group, we developed a set of questions to ask the candidates.
All candidates who listed their email addresses on the NSW Electoral Commission website were contacted and received the same questions. Any candidate who has not yet responded may do so at any time and we will add you to this list – please contact info@rydedistrictmums.com.au.
Ryde District Mums is not aligned with any party or candidate.
