Bass Coast Post: When you decided to stand in 2016, what did you hope to achieve?
Pamela Rothfield: My campaign in 2016 was based on a Better Deal for the Island. I believed, being an “outsider looking in”, that Phillip Island and San Remo did not receive equity in relation to the investment in capital works compared to the rates paid. Once on the “inside” I pushed for the only way I could see to secure decent capital works projects – through advocacy as Council just did not have the funds.
