League of Women Voters: Written Questions and Answers

Q1. What do you envision as a workable solution for our water issues?

To secure a long-term water supply while keeping costs reasonable, the City must prioritize a multi-pronged approach that balances water conservation, optimization of existing reservoirs and expansion of treated wastewater reuse for industrial needs. We must also secure a drought-proof backup, which is why I fully support the Inner Harbor desalination project. Based on the work and planning done by multiple prior councils, as well as the environmental studies and permitting already completed, I fully support the Inner Harbor desalination project and believe it can be done in a safe and fiscally responsible manner. We must also restore our relationships with Federal & State partners to make sure cost to the end user is as low as possible.

Q2. Do you favor an independent redistricting commission to redraw city council districts and why or why not?

Any redistricting should be based on careful mathematical balancing and satisfy equal voter representation. At the same time, we must preserve community of interest so that all residents feel they have access to a representative that understands their community. Redistricting should not be done often and would require an independent commission to ensure fairness. I do not favor redistricting at this time without strong data to indicate an imbalance in the current district structure.

Q3. Which city issues are most important to you?

Our city's top priority must be solving our water crisis; we cannot build a thriving economy or attract new business without stable infrastructure. Accordingly, I support the Inner Harbor project to secure a drought-proof future. To achieve this, we must restore trust in city leadership by electing councilmembers who collaborate constructively despite differing opinions. We must also restore vital relationships with our local, state, and federal partners. As Corpus Christi grows, we cannot lose sight of the essentials. I remain fully committed to consistently funding our city street improvements and robustly supporting public safety to ensure our neighborhoods remain safe and accessible for all.
