Gerald Thomas

Nonpartisan

I will always support our law enforcement and firefighters if elected as your City Councilman.

If elected to our Taylor City Council, I will work with the administration to prioritize funding for critical improvements to our sewer and water systems. Our residents deserve a reliable infrastructure that can withstand extreme weather.

If I’m fortunate enough to serve on our Taylor City Council, I will remain committed to supporting the wide range of recreation programs that make our community vibrant and active.

In addition to investing in modern fire protection strategies and maintaining well-equipped fire stations, we must also prioritize hiring and retaining highly trained police officers and firefighters.

Hiring more inspectors, enforcing existing codes, holding landlords accountable, and ensuring timely inspections so that our renters have safe, well-maintained housing.

I’ll also continue to work with our administration to seek out grant opportunities, just as we did for the new pavilion and playscape at our Taylor Petting Farm, the upcoming pickleball courts at Heritage Park, and the exciting extreme sports project underway at Lange Park.

I will always work with the administration and my colleagues on the council to advocate for the latest technology, equipment, and training to ensure our police officers are protected while they serve, and that our firefighters have the necessary tools to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies.

Our first responders risk everything for us, and I will always fight to give them the resources and support they need to do their jobs safely and effectively.

If elected to our Taylor City Council, I will review our existing ordinances and work with the administration to ensure they are properly enforced.

If elected, I will focus on: Keeping our community safe.

Improving infrastructure that benefits all residents.

If elected, I will work with my colleagues and the administration to strengthen our rental inspection program, as Mayor Woolley highlighted at a council meeting last year.
