Tyler City Mayor

Top Issues

Infrastructure / Transportation Smart infrastructure better daily life. We'll partner with TXDOT and Smith County where needed, and put local resources toward LOCALLY-managed streets and effective sewer systems. You shouldn't notice them—that means they're working. Taxes / Budget Cut the waste. Fund what matters. We'll audit every service. What's not working? Gone. What works? Improved. Fewer programs that waste your money. More focus on what helps you thrive. Infrastructure / Transportation Tyler deserves a plan—not a patch job. We'll focus on real, long-term solutions—not political quick fixes. Growth must be smart, sustainable, and affordable for all families. Band-Aids are not investments.
