    Auckland's mayor asking for the chance to finish the job he's started

    Auckland's mayor asking for the chance to finish the job he's started


    Wayne Brown will run again for the city's top job in October - saying he's delivered on most of the policies he set out to achieve when first elected in 2022.

    He says Auckland ratepayers should back him again.

    Brown says they expect to deliver the lowest rate rises in the country and value for everything - which could all be reversed.

    He says he wants that to be the normal ongoing behaviour.
