Basil Zempilas

Hi, I'm Basil Zempilas, your local Liberal for Churchlands.

It’s a privilege to introduce myself not as the person you know from television or radio, and not as the Lord Mayor of the City of Perth, but as a local who is part of your community and committed to our future.

 

I grew up here, I went to school here, my wife Amy and I are raising our family here.

 

After 30 years in broadcasting and leadership roles including as the twice-elected Lord Mayor of the City of Perth, I am ready to bring the same passion, commitment and energy to serve you in Churchlands.

 

My parents, Floreat residents for 70 years, taught me to work hard, use common sense and do the right thing – always. It’s those personal values I have lived my life by and built my career on.

 

And it’s how I’ve represented the ratepayers of the City of Perth and stood up for what’s right. I have been a fierce advocate for the City – and I will be a fierce advocate for Churchlands.

 

Our community deserves a representative who is prepared to stand up for what’s right. We need it more than ever. This WA Labor Government has eroded the decision-making power of local communities. 

 

We can’t risk that approach in Churchlands on planning issues like the Floreat Forum residential redevelopment or the Stephenson Avenue expansion and we have to push back against overcrowding at Churchlands Senior High and nearby Shenton College. 

 

I will always fight to protect our green spaces and the safety and amenity of our unique neighbourhoods. And I will always stand up for our community.

 

I am here to serve you. To listen and respond to your concerns, to champion the issues which matter to you and to ensure Churchlands remains an idyllic place to live, work and raise a family. 

 

It’s time for a change, Churchlands deserves better.

Out in our community
