My priorities for Northtown.

Community Investment

Northtown has green spaces with real potential, and I use them regularly. We have parks with trails, ponds, sports fields, and open green areas that give residents real reasons to get outside and connect with each other. These are genuine community assets, and I want to see the board continue investing in them thoughtfully, improving what we have and adding amenities that reflect what residents actually want.

A well-loved park system does more than provide recreation. It builds neighborhood identity, brings people together, and makes Northtown a place residents are proud to call home. I'd like to see us be intentional about that.

I'd also like to explore connecting Northtown's trail network to the City of Pflugerville's extensive trail system. This kind of connectivity would significantly expand what residents can do on foot or by bike, and it's the kind of forward-looking investment that takes a board member willing to think beyond the district's boundaries.

I know which spaces need attention because I live here and use them. That's the difference a resident board member makes.

Sustainability

Northtown should be leading on sustainability, not waiting for someone else to figure it out first. My initial focus is bringing curbside composting to the district — a practical, achievable service that reduces what goes to landfills and gives residents a way to participate in something better.

The MUD already manages essential infrastructure and has relationships with service providers. Adding composting is the kind of forward-thinking initiative that a community-focused board can drive. And that's just a start. I want to bring a culture of continuous improvement to the board, always looking for ways to better serve residents.

Fiscal Responsibility

The MUD controls what residents pay, both the monthly utility rates for water, sewer, and trash, and the district tax rate that appears on your property tax bill. Both are set by the board, and keeping them fair requires active, informed stewardship. That means scrutinizing every budget, understanding every contract, and asking hard questions about long-term financial planning.

It means being the kind of board member who reads the fine print and shows up to every meeting prepared and engaged. Our rates and taxes are something to be proud of, and ensuring every dollar the district spends delivers real value to residents is one of the most important responsibilities the board has.

Transparency & Access

Currently, the primary way to communicate with the Northtown MUD board is to attend a monthly meeting and speak during the public comment period. I'd like to see that change, and I'll work toward it as a board member.

If elected, I will be genuinely reachable by email, by phone, or in the neighborhood, and I'll respond. More than that, I actually want to hear from constituents. Resident input should be informing board decisions. I'll advocate for more proactive communication: publishing easy to read meeting agendas in advance, summarizing decisions in plain language, and creating real opportunities for residents to weigh in before decisions are made.

This website is my first commitment to that principle. If you have a question right now, before I'm even on the ballot, you can reach me here.
