Priorities for Plano

Plano is one of the best places to live, work, and raise a family, but as our city continues to grow, we need strong leadership to ensure we remain a safe, prosperous, and well-planned community. My priorities focus on fiscal responsibility, smart growth, infrastructure improvements, and public safety—all while preserving Plano’s suburban character and high quality of life.

Fiscal Responsibility

Plano must continue to be a financially strong city that spends tax dollars wisely.
✔ Cut wasteful spending to ensure efficient use of taxpayer money.
✔ Keep property taxes low while maintaining high-quality city services.
✔ Ensure responsible budgeting that prioritizes essential needs over excessive projects.

✔ Balance zoning policies to allow for business expansion while maintaining high-quality residential areas.
✔ Preserve green spaces and parks to maintain Plano’s livability.
✔ Ensure development aligns with infrastructure capacity to prevent overcrowding and traffic congestion.
