I am a member of the First Baptist Church of Barksdale, where I am the church historian. I am treasurer of the Barksdale Civic Association, Secretary-Treasurer of the Nueces Canyon Public Library in Barksdale, Vice-President of the Barksdale Water Supply, Inc. and on the Board of Directors of the Nueces Canyon Chamber of Commerce. I am truly interested in the history of our county and the well-being of the people.
Precinct 2 & 5 is a very large and diverse area. We have mountains, the Nueces River and several creeks. There are over 30 county roads in this precinct alone, plus the town of Barksdale, Camp Wood Hills, Stewart Mountain Estates, several subdivisions and part of the Rocksprings area.
Besides the maintenance of the county roads and the upkeep of the streets in Barksdale, other issues that need to be addressed are:
1. Adequate law enforcement in our area
2. A permanent nutrition center site in Barksdale
3. Maintaining a reasonable tax rate
4. The availability of grants to help fund some of these projects
If you would like to discuss other concerns or ideas about our area, please call me at 234-4212.
A commissioner represents the people in their precinct and, if elected, I will do my best to represent you as your Commissioner of Precinct 2 & 5. Let your voice be heard, let’s work together.
Thank you.
