Andrew Little has revealed he's got his eyes on Wellington's future as he outlines plans as a mayoral candidate.

The former Labour leader officially launched his campaign for the mayoralty in the capital yesterday. 

He's vowing to implement a more transparent, democracy-focused system of decision-making at the council if elected in October.

Little says people feel 'disconnected' - and he's hoping to restore faith in the council. 

"I think there are some habits inside the council that we'll need to change... in the 18 months or so since I've been out of Parliament, I'm up against local Government and the city council and I've seen some of the things that happened internally."
