Advocacy

Upon assuming office, it was obvious to me that the relationship between the City of Brookshire and our community partners was fractured, if existent at all. Our residents deserve relationships that help us address the needs of our community and help Brookshire grow and flourish. By proactively working to build those relationships, and develop new relationships, we can develop plans to address our concerns and promote growth.

Waller County

Working with County Judge Duhon and Commissioners we were able to secure separate grants totaling just over $8 Million to address drainage in Brookshire. Improvements focus on 1st, 4th, Stella and Stalknect Roads and the creation of a large volume retention pond. Coupled with drainage work already in progress we can make meaningful progress on flood relief.

TXDot

TxDot invited me to join the South Waller County Mobility team giving us greater insight into future plans for roadway development in our area. TxDot maintains several major artery roads in Brookshire and working with them is essential.

These vibrant spaces will offer enhanced recreational opportunities for families and individuals, fostering a healthy and active lifestyle within our community.

The creation of the Downtown Plaza stands as a testament of our commitment to culture and entertainment. With the addition of an Amphitheater, our town can now play host to captivating outdoor concerts and events, bringing our community closer and infusing it with a vibrant spirit.
