2015 Chris Neason

Chris' nomination was accompanied by no less than 5 supporting letters of endorsement - 2 from senior police/2 from Council staff and senior management and 1 from the local trucking Association. Through those letters was a reoccurring theme of Chris being well respected, having a huge knowledge base, and examples of sharing that knowledge across the sector and community for the benefit of all.

A glance through the District's Road Safety Action Plan demonstrates strong working relationships with police, District licensing, SADD, HPA, contractors, SafeKids, ACC and schools, and a vast number of community groups. This list evidences a true Safe System approach in Chris' work.
