I was thrilled to introduce Clear Brook High School’s Salutatorian, Anson Huynh, at today’s Honor’s Luncheon hosted by the Friendswood Chamber of Commerce. The top 10 academically ranked students from Friendswood and Clear Brook High Schools were recognized for their achievements. I am always so impressed with our students and their accomplishments.

While sitting at the polls today it was great to have a break when Mr. Vicic brought his vintage Thunderbird by for me to see and to show his support. It really brought back memories of my Mom’s Thunderbird.

I’ll be out at polling locations during early voting and always appreciate the opportunity to talk directly with residents. If you’ve got questions or want to share your thoughts, stop by and say hello. 👋 Early voting continues through Tuesday. See you at the polls.

Let’s talk about the Albritton Project. Like many of you, I want to see it completed. But it’s important to understand that as a private developer on their own private property the City doesn’t have the legal authority to force an owner to fund and complete a construction project.
In the meantime, the site is maintained and although only partially completed it contributes $144,000+ annually in tax revenue, for our community, over $130,000 more per year than when it was a vacant lot.

Good governance means applying the same rules fairly and consistently to everyone. We all want to see this project completed, and I’ll continue staying engaged and openly communicating its progress.

DID YOU KNOW: In May of 2024, less than 5% of registered voters made it to the polls. And one year later, only 2,540 residents voted, that's just 8.31%! When local elections shape decisions that impact our daily lives, from infrastructure to community priorities, you can't afford to miss your chance to be heard.

✔ Make a plan to vote.
✔ Encourage a neighbor.
✔ Be part of the process.

I would be honored to earn your support for re-election to Friendswood City Council, Position 5.
