A Roadmap for a thriving,

Unified Denton

Moving beyond division to deliver data-driven solutions and compassionate leadership.

Real affordability

with compassion

Denton is facing a housing crisis that cannot be solved by "abundance" alone if that abundance only serves developers. George’s philosophy is pro-housing, but he draws a firm line at projects that ignore Denton’s actual workforce. Leveraging his experience as President of the Denton County Affordable Housing Corporation, George will prioritize:

  • Deep Affordability: Focusing on housing for those at 30–50% AMI, ensuring teachers, service workers, and seniors aren't priced out.

  • Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH): Scaling models like the upcoming 84-unit DAHC project that integrates housing with on-site mental health and job training.

Eviction Prevention: Expanding legal and rental assistance programs to keep families in their homes.

Denton Housing Affordability

Data shows that the starting salary of DISD Teachers is $60,500, based on the department of Housing & Urban Development 30% of your gross wages should be set aside for rent and utilities. In Denton our average rent is $1,725 and an average of $261.92 per month in utilities in 2026 based on city projections. This totals $1,986.92 per month which is $474.92 more per month than a teacher can afford.

infrastructure-first:

Growth that serves you

As a former owner of two Denton businesses, George knows that a thriving economy requires stability and fair play. We must stop approving massive developments based on "projected" capacity and start putting our infrastructure first.

  • No More Infrastructure Shortcuts: Implementing an Infrastructure-First Ordinance that requires completed traffic, water, and utility studies before any major development approval.

  • Protecting Local Business: Requiring Small Business Impact Reviews for large developments and launching a City Master Lease Program to stabilize rents for legacy shops.

Denton First Procurement: Establishing a 25% minimum local procurement requirement to keep tax dollars in our community.

A Worker-Centered, Compassionate Community

George’s work as a licensed clinician and social worker provides the roadmap for a safer, more unified Denton. He believes in dismantling failing systems and replacing them with practical, community-led care.

  • Compassionate Homeless Response: Reforming shelter operations to align with "housing-first" best practices, eliminating punitive bed lotteries, and investing in street outreach that actually delivers services.

  • Protecting Workers: Requiring prevailing wages and safety standards on all city-funded projects while supporting the right to organize without interference.

Investing in Public Spaces: Building on 6 years of service on the Parks Board to preserve our tree canopy and ensure developers pay their fair share for green spaces.
