Career
editAt the 1998 local elections she stood for a seat on the Auckland City Council in the Balmoral ward as a City Vision candidate and was elected.[2]
McKelvie was chairwoman of the Waitemata District Health Board starting from 2001 until 2009.[3][4] She was appointed by Labour MP Annette King, and resigned in 2009, citing a lack of funding to the board from the National government. It was funded $1.074 billion, which she predicted would result in a $35 million deficit as a result of it not "tak[ing] into account the increase in population in the Waitemata district".[4][5][6]
In 2007 McKelvie was appointed a director of the Crown Health Financing Agency for a three-year term.[6][7] That year she was also appointed a member of the New Zealand Tourism Board for two years.[8] As of 2008[update] she is also chairwoman of Quotable Value, the Housing New Zealand Appeal Authority, a member of the National Capital Committee and Ministry of Health, and a director of Word Pictures Ltd.[9]
In the 2009 New Year Honours McKelvie was named a companion of the Queen's Service Order for services to business and health.[4][10]
