District Council of Robe candidate profiles - 11 November 2019

LYNCH-RHODES Brenton

I am passionate about the environment, community and aged care. If elected to Council these are a few of the initiatives I would like to become involved in. Strategic planning of the industrial commercial area allowing for future business growth. The development of a retirement, lifestyle village, enabling families to stay within the community. A standalone, sustainable power grid, networking existing solar, along with other methods including potential wind and wave technology. I have no vested commercial interest and if elected to Council my only interest is in maintaining and improving on what we already enjoy in Robe. I come with a background in engineering, project management, and more recently small business and tourism. I am passionate about seeing sustainable growth for Robe in the environment, financial and community sectors. I am approachable and open to discuss any concerns residents may have on 0403 867 901.

BAKER Mark Andrew

I have been a resident of Robe for 37 years, have four children and live with my partner Marsha Chappel. I have operated two businesses employing local people. My current civil construction business has had a long involvement with local government over the last 30 years contracting to numerous local councils where I have gained a unique insight into council operations, which I feel would be valuable in the role of a councilor. I have been involved with a number of community groups, beginning with the CFS in 1983, Robe Council, Councillor, Robe Primary School Governing Council, Robe Motor Sports, President Robe Junior Football, 12 years on the Robe Community Bank Board including 5 years as Chairman. I have sponsored and supported various Robe community events. One of my goals would be to see the Robe Council become carbon neutral asap.

For those that don't know me, I am sure you have looked up and seen a Tigermoth vintage aircraft joy riding tourists around town for many years now. From this perspective I have watched Robe expand and grow. I would like this opportunity to represent residents who feel there is a need to maintain a balance between making Robe the perfect holiday destination while respecting the town's origins. If elected my main goals on council will be to support and promote attractions during the quiet months while creating benefits for the town derived from the peak period.
