PRIORITIES

PUBLIC SAFETY

Brandon believes that if we don't have strong public safety, nothing else matters. Brandon will keep Denton safe by:

Ensuring our police and fire departments are fully staffed and fully funded.
Working with agencies to reinforce traffic and pedestrian safety, especially along US 380 and I-35.
Increasing the number of mental health responders for mental health crises.
Continuing Denton PD practice of deprioritization of possession of personal amounts of marijuana.

COMMERCE & GROWTH

As Denton builds out, it is imperative that we have a city government that understands the importance of commerce. Under Brandon’s leadership, Denton will foster economic growth by:

Nurturing relationships between the city and local businesses.
Working to make Denton Square more walkable and inviting to shoppers and tourists.
Expanding the capacity and utility of the Denton Enterprise Airport.
Helping recruit businesses to start up in or relocate to Denton.

infrastructure

As a professional truck driver, Brandon understands how crucial it is that we fix up our roads. Together, we can improve our infrastructure by:

Investing more of our budget into fixing existing infrastructure (streets, sidewalks, drainage, etc.).
Ensuring that city contractors finish their projects on time, and are reprimanded when they fail to do so.
Working to expand broadband internet access.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Denton is blessed with vibrant greenspaces and beautiful parks. Brandon will continue to protect Denton greenspaces by:

Working to reduce city carbon emissions.
Continuing recycling and environmental education programs.
Advocating for more greenery along roadways and public spaces.

Public Education

We must maintain Denton's reputation as an educational powerhouse. Brandon believes we can ensure this by:

Strengthening relationships between city council and our higher education institutions; the University of North Texas, Texas Woman's University, & North Central Texas College.
Promoting cooperation and transparency between city council and Denton ISD.

MUSIC & ARTS

Denton is known for its vibrant music and arts scene, allowing Dentonites to explore while also generating commerce. A win-win for Denton. Let’s protect our historic music and arts scene by:

Working with venues to help keep their doors open.
Investing in art-focused public-private partnerships where possible.
Funding more public art projects.
