Franceska Strano
candidate for City of Parramatta council, Rosehill ward
Franceska Strano
Sustainable planning for a liveable Parramatta.
“I am committed to working alongside residents – it is deeply important to me that locals have a voice, and are involved in all council decisions.”
If elected as a councillor, I would act on these priorities:
- Focusing on building community services and infrastructure, especially for improved public transport.
- Ensuring that residents have a voice in council through formation of resident groups and gaining the support of their elected councillors.
- Working to make Parramatta Council open, ethical and transparent.
- Supporting businesses and residents by building liveability and community into our neighbourhoods.
- Getting smarter about waste and the reduction of plastics.
- ..and every child in Parramatta deserves a good park!”
Background:
- Civil engineer with experience in transport infrastructure, water resources and renewable energy sectors (over 10 years experience).
- In her free time Franceska advocates for women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), women in leadership, LGBTQIA+ rights, multiculturalism, and racial equality. She enjoys vegetable gardening and cooking up feasts for friends and family and can be spotted on a sunny day, kayaking on Parramatta River with her husband Tom.
