She was relatively happy with how her first term had gone.
"I've quite enjoyed it. I think that we've got a reasonably good council and we're reasonably fiscally prudent. I've always thought that's my job. Just to keep an eye on the spending."
She said getting Marton wastewater treatment plant compliance and funding the new civic centre in Bulls were major issues for the upcoming term.
In the four-seat Marton ward, Rob Snijders is the only non-councillor in the running so far, while Lynne Sheridan and Nigel Belsham are both seeking re-election.
Mr Belsham said his first term had been a learning experience and the council had set a lot up for the next three years.
"This coming term we've got some reasonable spending in the district as far as civic buildings go," he said. "Those funds are capped but I want to make sure we keep at those levels but also I'd like to see progress."
Mr Belsham said getting the best out of the shared service deal with Manawatu and sorting out issues with leachate from Bonny Glen and the Marton wastewater treatment plant would be important issues. The Hunterville and Turakina wards (one seat each) are yet to receive a nomination.
The Chronicle will speak to other Rangitikei candidates throughout the week.
