Dear Friends and Neighbors,

I value my community and all that it has to offer. As a Town Council Member, I will work diligently to protect our quality of life and preserve the unique character of Flower Mound.

I have made it a priority to attend the many neighborhood meetings and candidate forums. I have learned the critical issues concerning our community. My platform is not based on my own agenda, but on the needs and desires expressed by you, our residents, the people I'd very much like to represent.

We need a better way of attracting quality businesses without throwing away our SMARTGrowth standards. We need a better way of accessing our mineral rights without destroying our Town's Master Plan and compromising our Town's health, safety and welfare. We need greater transparency and consistency in government to eliminate any question of favoritism. We need to provide fair, professional service to all of our customers, developers and citizens alike. We need more diligence and accountability in government spending. In short, we need to improve the Town's level of service and not be satisfied with the status quo.

I am an experienced business woman. I will lead by example. I will take action and make a positive difference. I have demonstrated this in my campaign and will continue to demonstrate this if elected as your representative. I cannot serve on Town Council as your representative without your support. Please vote. "Together we can make a difference!"

Sincerely,

Virginia Jellison
