Terry Lynne

Farmersville City Mayor

Top Issues

Criminal Justice / Public Safety Full staffing will take pressure off of officers, which will take pressure off of their home life. Taxes / Budget Knowing that businesses pay 74% of what it takes to operate the city is important. Respecting them and providing tax relief to them will allow them to reinvest in their businesses, buildings, and equipment, as well as, possibly hire additional employees. Housing I will work with our neighbors in Dallas to take more responsibility for the homeless that live under and around LBJ, which is City of Dallas property. Dallas has a budget for dealing with this, Farmers Branch does not. Criminal Justice / Public Safety Filling Open Positions at the Police Department. Infrastructure / Transportation Slowing Traffic Down Throughout the City. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will urge council to review prior changes to our property maintenance codes, which were weakened by a previous council. Special attention needs to be paid to delineate what issues are matters for police and what issues are matters for Code Enforcement. Criminal Justice / Public Safety Improved Code Enforcement. Infrastructure / Transportation Neighborhood Improvement & Reinvestment.
