Election
BY AMANDA CUTSHALL & SHANNON WEST
KEY: *Incumbent
Kyle City Council, District 2
Why are you running for this o ce, and what’s the central issue you’re hoping to address? Our city is growing too fast without the infrastructure to support it. I'm running to demand accountability, smarter planning, and a pause on unchecked development. With a strong background in nance and strategy, I’ll ght for real solutions that put residents rst and protect our community's future.
If elected, how do you plan to address future growth? Our infrastructure is maxed out. I will ght to slow reckless development until roads, utilities, and schools can keep up. With over 2,000 homes already available, we don’t need more — we need smarter planning. I’m committed to protecting our quality of life through bold, responsible, and sustainable growth decisions.

I am running to address the growing pains Kyle is currently facing and to bring strong, thoughtful, ethical leadership to the city. I am going to focus on infrastructure, especially roads, to make sure that our city remains an incredible place to live.
I have two goals to address growth: First, working to hold developers accountable through impact fees and ensuring future development agreements are as bene cial to the city as possible. Second, working with regional partners like San Marcos, Buda, and Hays County to address infrastructure needs with teamwork and cooperation.

Kyle City Council, District 3
I’m running to ensure Kyle grows equitably. With my background in anti-displacement policies, I bring a community-centered approach to housing, infrastructure, and inclusive planning. Local governments must act as a safety net to protect working families and keep people from being priced out of our city.
Kyle’s growth must center people. I support policies that hold development accountable for infrastructure impacts, expand services for residents like the Property Maintenance Program, and create free, welcoming public spaces for residents. We need expanded social services and small business supports to ensure residents aren’t priced out or left behind. Future growth needs to bring amenities and value to our city and be located where retail services are lacking throughout our community. By planning strategically, we can build in proper locations and permit quality zoning. This will reduce costs, redundancy, and mitigate dense housing that burdens our residents.
