Galveston's Path to Progress
My Priorities for Galveston
Galveston deserves dependable services and a city government that facilitates growth, not complicates it. These priorities focus on keeping essential services reliable, managing taxpayer dollars responsibly, and creating opportunities for every resident.
Together, we can ensure our island thrives today and for the future.
Public Safety & a Strong Community
Strong public safety is the foundation of a healthy community.
Supporting police, fire, and emergency services ensures that every neighborhood — from Downtown to the West End — feels secure and protected.
Reliable Water, Sewer & Drainage
Residents should never have to wonder if the basics will work.
We need dependable water and sewer systems, modern drainage infrastructure, and a plan to stay ahead of maintenance instead of falling behind it.
Well-Maintained Roads & Infrastructure
Smooth roads and working streets aren’t luxuries — they’re daily essentials.
Galveston’s infrastructure should be managed with clear priorities, regular reporting, and accountability for results.
A Healthy Local Economy
A thriving Galveston depends on a strong Port, a resilient tourism sector, and small businesses that can grow without red tape.
Smart support for local employers keeps jobs and opportunity close to home.
Efficient, Responsible Budgeting
City government should live within its means and protect reserves for true emergencies.
We can deliver better services and invest in the future without waste — by demanding transparency, efficiency, and measurable results.
Neighborhood Quality & Livability
Every neighborhood deserves attention — clean streets, responsive code enforcement, and spaces families can enjoy.
Good local government starts at the block level, where pride and safety meet.
Flood Resilience & Preparedness
Protecting Galveston from flooding and storm impacts safeguards homes, tourism, and jobs.
Proactive planning, stronger drainage, and readiness before storms strike keep the city open and secure.
City Hall That Works
Residents and businesses deserve a city government that helps, not hinders.
Clear communication, faster permitting, and a culture of service can rebuild trust and make progress visible again.
Transparency & Accountability
Galveston taxpayers deserve to see where their money goes and what results it achieves.
Regular updates, open data, and honest reporting will turn campaign promises into measurable progress.
