Susan Valliant’s Fight for Community-Driven Development!
During the 89th Texas Legislative Session, Senate Bill 840 was passed, effectively stripping city councils and local residents of their authority over planning and zoning decisions. This misguided legislation has handed unchecked power to developers, allowing them to construct projects without regard for community input or local priorities—potentially leading to unchecked urban sprawl, strained infrastructure, and diminished quality of life.
Susan Valliant strongly believes in restoring local control to city leaders and the people they represent. She will fight to repeal or amend SB 840, ensuring that development decisions are made at the community level, where they belong, to protect neighborhoods, preserve Texas values, and promote responsible growth that benefits everyone.
