Louise Bloomfield

for Lord Mayor

"After 3 years as an Alderman, I have decided to run for Lord Mayor of Hobart."

Hobart needs stable, functional leadership - without theatre - and I believe I am the candidate best able to bring Council together, restore confidence, and maximise investment in our city.

"Let's create a city with opportunities."

As your Lord Mayor, I will bring a steady hand, striving for affordable rates, support for business, safer streets and better city maintenance.

Hobart should be a city where people can build a business, raise a family, enjoy our arts and culture, move around safely and feel that the city is working for them.

It should be for business owners, workers, families, both older and young people alike, people with disability and vulnerable members of our community who deserve to be included, respected and able to engage well in city life.

As an accountant and small business owner, I understand the importance of careful financial management.

My Key Positions

  • Professional, Calm leadership

  • Supporting business, innovation and investment

  • Keeping rates affordable

  • Safer, cleaner, better-maintained streets

  • Greater investment in roads, footpaths and greenspace

  • Exploring fair rates incentives for residents who maintain nature strips

  • Better access for people with disability, the elderly, families and workers

  • Ensuring vulnerable people can engage well in city life

  • Supporting arts, culture and young people

  • Protecting Hobart’s character while planning wisely for the future
