Currently Serving
Making city government work for residents.
Pflugerville families are paying some of the highest water bills in Central Texas. New development is outpacing infrastructure investment. City decisions are too often made without enough input from the people most affected.
Before winning his seat in November 2025, Jonathan spent three years on the Planning & Zoning Commission, two of them as Chair, and served as Chair of the Capital Improvements Advisory Board, as well as numerous other committees and strategic planning projects. You can read more about that background on the about page. He came in knowing the details. Now he has the vote.

Focus Areas
What Jonathan is working on.
Fiscal Responsibility
New development should cover the cost of roads, water, and public safety it generates. No vanity projects. Every dollar tracked against what residents actually need.

Housing & Affordability
Teachers, first responders, seniors, and young families should be able to afford to live in the city they serve. That means more housing options across price points and life stages.

Transparency
City government should work for residents, not around them. That means clear communication, honest tradeoffs, and accountability from this seat.
