Core Principles

  • Community Assets & Quality of Life

    A growing city needs to invest in the places and programs that bring people together. Libraries, parks, Vybe Trails, events, and the arts are essential to building a strong community. Our funding needs to keep pace with growth.

  • Revitalize Economic Development

    Kyle’s economic future should create more opportunity and reduce the tax burden on families. We can strengthen our business community by attracting industries that offer good-paying jobs, career advancement, and long-term opportunities for Kyle residents outside of retail, food, and warehouse jobs.

  • Responsible Growth & Infrastructure

    Growth is coming to Kyle. We can take advantage of it—or be taken advantage of by it. Kyle needs a growth strategy that plans for long-term costs, protects taxpayers, and ensures our infrastructure keeps pace with our community.

Community Assets & Quality of Life

A growing city needs to invest in the places and programs that bring people together. Libraries, parks, Vybe Trails, events, and the arts are essential to building a strong community. Our funding needs to keep pace with growth.

  • Properly fund our library: Ensure the library has the staffing and resources needed to maintain safe operating hours, meet accreditation standards, and provide the educational and recreational resources residents depend on.

  • Invest in parks and recreation: Provide the staffing and funding necessary to maintain our existing parks while planning for the increased demand that comes with Kyle’s growth.

  • Strengthen community events: Improve events like Market Days, Grinch on the Green, and CityFest to attract more visitors, support local entrepreneurs, and generate additional economic activity.

  • Support arts and culture: Empower the Arts and Culture Board to pursue state grants and build partnerships with local businesses to showcase Kyle’s artists, musicians, and creative community.

A city becomes a community when we invest in the places, experiences, and opportunities that bring people together.

Revitalize Economic Development

Kyle’s economic future should create more opportunity and reduce the tax burden on families. We can strengthen our business community by attracting industries that offer good-paying jobs, career advancement, and long-term opportunities for Kyle residents outside of retail, food, and warehouse jobs.

  • Attract better career opportunities: Recruit blue-collar and white-collar industries where residents can build careers and advance. Accomplish this through leveraging the resources of our regional partner organizations such as the Hays Caldwell Economic Development Partnership.

  • Modernize economic incentives: Replace outdated, unused incentive programs and redirect those resources toward strategies that actually attract investment and jobs.

  • Make Kyle easier to do business in: Streamline permitting, provide sufficient staffing for faster approvals, and reduce unnecessary barriers so businesses can choose Kyle over competing communities.

A stronger local economy means more jobs, more opportunity, and a more diversified tax base for everyone.

Responsible Growth and Infrastructure

Growth is coming. We can take advantage of it—or be taken advantage of by it. Kyle needs a growth strategy that plans for long-term costs, protects taxpayers, and ensures our infrastructure keeps pace with our community.

  • Reward responsible development: Update the Development Code to provide incentives for projects that meet higher standards, including LEED certification and One Water principles.

  • Modernize parking requirements: Replace outdated, one-size-fits-all parking mandates with more flexible standards that encourage infill, reduce wasted space, and make room for productive community and commercial uses.

  • Deliver true mixed-use development: Hold developers accountable for projects marketed as mixed-use by ensuring they provide meaningful commercial and retail opportunities. Not simply apartments surrounded by parking.

  • Prepare our water infrastructure for growth: Prioritize water and wastewater expansion and maintenance while encouraging infill development that can help shift long-term infrastructure costs toward commercial development rather than placing the burden on residents.

  • Deliver the roads voters approved: Kyle voters approved nearly $300 million in road bonds, and the City has an obligation to complete these projects efficiently. Every day of delay reduces what those dollars can buy as construction costs rise. We should minimize unnecessary delays, studies, and administrative costs so more of the funding goes toward actual road construction.

Responsible growth means planning ahead, building smarter, and making sure growth strengthens, but does not strain, Kyle’s future.
