Lower Density

What do we mean by Lower Density?

As Flower Mound continues to grow, I will only support measured growth in conformance with the Master Plan. I will always work to mitigate the negative impacts of new development on our existing communities: this means fewer new apartments in mixed-use areas, less heavy-vehicle traffic in industrial zones, larger residential lots, and higher-quality commercial development. It means more tree preservation, enhanced conservation in the Cross Timbers Conservation Development District, and a 21st century approach to traffic.


It's not too late to preserve the best elements of our Town.

Residential Density

No issue is more contentious than residential density. I am committed to respecting the Master Plan and protecting neighborhoods from encroaching high-density residential development.

Traffic

Help is on the way! In 2021 I requested a pilot of Traffic Synchronization Technology (aka Adaptive Signaling), and for the first time this was included in the budget. I believe that a 20th century approach to transportation is not the answer for Flower Mound. A 21st century approach that leverages available technology will result in shorter commutes and increased roadway capacity at a much lower cost than adding additional lanes and miles of concrete, and with fewer negative impacts.

Commercial Development

We have an opportunity to develop International Parkway (2499 from Spinks to Gerault) into a professional office corridor. Due to Covid, employers are seeking to bring the workspace closer to the professional workforce. Flower Mound is uniquely positioned to take advantage of this and I will not vote for a Master Plan Amendment in the Lakeside Business District that fails to bring us closer to that goal.
