Wayne Brown has won the Auckland Mayorality with a promise to "fix Auckland".
He ran a campaign based on financial responsibility and accountability with a focus on tackling transport, crime, unfinished projects, rising costs and council waste.
We asked Brown for an interview but he declined, with his team saying he's busy getting his feet under the desk to start fixing Auckland.
But Viv Beck, who's decision to pull out of the mayoralty race helped secure a centre-right win, says the shift will make a difference for businesses.
She spoke to Guyon Espiner.
