Andrea Reiner will be the Liberal Democrat candidate to succeed Mike Dixon who retires from the City Council next month.
Andrea hopes to join the team of Lib Dem councillors for the city centre area, Colin Rosenstiel, Tim Bick and Sarah Whitebread. She has been working alongside the team over the past year.
“I will fight hard for the residents of the city centre.” said Andrea.
“I want to thank Mike Dixon for his impressive record of service to the city – including recently as mayor – and to wish him well in retirement.” A mother of 3-year old twins, Andrea is a part-time lecturer in law and has been a volunteer supporter of the human rights organisation Liberty. She is a member of the Park Street Residents Association committee.
“Andrea would make an excellent councillor for the city centre and is already proving her commitment and energy,” said Mike Dixon.
Andrea recently ran a residents survey in the city centre, from which nearly 200 responses have been received. We will be reporting back on that in the future.
