Stephen has been a County Councillor for Hatfield Rural for the last four year and a borough councillor at Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council for the last 22 years.
By profession he is a Fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors and worked in commercial and industrial property consultancy for 45 years with an interest in investment, planning and development and environmental matters. He has furthered this interest by sitting on the development control committee at HCC as well as the Growth, Infrastructure, Planning and Environment committee.
His interest in investment has also enabled him to be a member of the Pensions committee. He is keen to help solve local issues and represent all residents in his division who require help or have particular problems relating to the council. Roads, speeding, parking, flooding and buses have all figured over the last four years and some of these remain ongoing problems still to be solved.
He is married with four grown up children and lives in Brookmans Park.
