Bob Shearing
Independent Citizens City Council candidate for the
RICCARTON- WIGRAM ward
Bob Shearing is currently in his second term as a City Councillor for the Riccarton-Wigram ward. As a major advocate for the new wheelie bin waste system, the preservation of Ruapuna as the home of Motor racing and centre city enhancement, Bob continues to play his part around the council table.
When he’s not spending time with wife, Lynn and daughter, Kathryn, Bob is actively involved in a range of community organisations, including the Church of the Holy Family Trust, the Rose Historic Chapel Trust and the Hornby Community Care Trust. He is also a member of the Hornby Rotary club.
Bob brings a wealth of commercial understanding and practical skills to the Council table from his experience as a successful business owner. He is a director of RA Shearing Contractors Ltd, a local earthmoving and paving company he founded 30 years ago.
Bob believes in getting things done and looks forward to delivering on this commitment to Riccarton-Wigram for another three years.
