Martin
has represented Barham Downs Ward since 1995,
and has been County Councillor since 1989.
In both 1992 and 1997 Martin stood for parliament
for the Canterbury Constituency. He taught
Economics and Modern Languages at the Kings
School, Canterbury where I was a Housemaster
for 12 years.
“As a rural councillor I am concerned
with improving services to village residents,
especially with
regard to controlling the volume and speed
of traffic. One of my main interests is Neighbourhood
Regeneration. As County Councillor I take a
keen
interest in the Youth Service and played a
part in obtaining a detached youth work project
for
Canterbury. Another main interest is the preservation
of the district's countryside, and I have worked
actively to preserve and enhance the Kent downs
AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty). |
