Councillors

Prior to the 2010 election there were three Greater Dunedin Councillors: Dave Cull, Kate Wilson and Chris Staynes. They along with six other Greater Dunedin candidates ran for council in 2010. Dave Cull was elected mayor.[1]

Policies

Dave Cull voted against the construction of the new Forsyth Barr Stadium at University Plaza as did Wilson with Staynes supporting it.[2] Since then all three councilors have objected to the stadium.[3] Cull is undecided on whether or not Carisbrook should be kept as a future sporting venue.[4]
