Andrew Little is laying out his priorities as he takes the Wellington mayoral chains.
He won a landslide in the capital, getting more than 34,000 votes.
His nearest competition was Karl Tiefenbacher on 8807 votes.

"I'm serious about a council where everybody has a role, has a place and a stake in what we do - and then sort of knitting that together."
