Top issues during term (13)(Development)
economic development
It's a tiny $25,000 investment right now, but it could pay off big if they actually land the academy.
urban development
You'll likely see higher property values, but be prepared for potential tax hikes to fund the massive infrastructure upgrades needed to handle the traffic.
Data Center Development
Potential property and sales tax revenues ranging in the millions from multi-billion-dollar facility investments.
residential development
Expect your property taxes to fluctuate as the city scrambles to fund the new infrastructure needed to support thousands of new neighbors.
housing policy
Keeping zoning local helps protect current property values by preventing high-density developments that some residents fear could strain infrastructure.
Development Plats and Road Acceptances
Expands the county's residential tax base through new housing development.
Single-Family Bond Volume Cap Assignment for Homebuyer Assistance
Provides approximately $1.4 million in down payment assistance and ongoing revenue of 4.75 basis points annually.
Commercial Property Acquisition on E. McKinney Street
Purchase price of $1,664,139.25 funded through Permanent Improvement Funds.
Enclave of Tabor Ranch Public Improvement District
