TAKING
AN INDEPENDENT STAND TO PROTECT OUR QUALITY
OF LIFE
Demand
Responsible Growth – Promote
aggressive enforcement of current rules
and develop a new plan for shaping responsible
growth in our community. Fully implement
the recommendations of the Southwest
Travis County Growth Dialog Panel.
Take
On Our Traffic Problems, Without Tolling
Existing Roads – Pursue
alternative methods for funding road construction
and promote development of a mass transit
solution to relieve congestion. Aggressively
search for ways to improve highway safety.
Protect
Our Water – Fight
for the enforcement and expansion of water
quality standards for new development that
will keep our water clean and ensure a
sustainable supply for the future.
Push
for a Groundwater District – Protect
water availability for those whose sole
source of water is well water.
Fight
For Neighborhoods – Do
more to protect current homes and neighborhoods
from the impacts of accelerated area growth.
Fix
The Broken “Grandfathering” Policy – Which
currently is allowing subdivision plats
to be placed on large parcels of land and “grandfathering” them
from compliance with future responsible
growth regulations.
Convince
Developers To Do Their Fair Share – Large-scale
developers in our community must share
in the responsibility for the infrastructure
required to service new growth, including
schools, roads, and emergency services,
rather than pushing the bill onto taxpayers.
Keep
The Community Safe – Prioritize
funding for effective countywide law enforcement,
fire protection, and emergency medical
services.
Deliver
Good Government – Listen
to constituents and be a guardian over
taxpayer money to ensure the citizens of
Precinct 3 are receiving the best return
on their investment.
