Michael Meihls
Candidate for Katy City Council Ward B
Protecting What Makes Katy Strong.
Planning Responsibly for the Growth Ahead.
My Priorities for Katy
Responsible leadership means making thoughtful decisions, protecting our neighborhoods, managing taxpayer dollars wisely, and planning carefully so Katy preserves the character and community that make it feel like home.
Smart Growth & Planning
Katy is continuing to grow, and that growth must be approached thoughtfully. New development should be carefully reviewed to ensure it aligns with our infrastructure, traffic capacity, drainage systems, and public safety services.
Growth should strengthen our community, not strain it. By planning ahead and evaluating long-term impacts, we can protect neighborhoods, preserve property values, and maintain the character that makes Katy special.
Smart planning today ensures we avoid preventable problems tomorrow.
Fiscal Responsibility
Taxpayer dollars must be managed with discipline and transparency. As a small business owner, I understand the importance of balancing budgets, planning for future expenses, and avoiding unnecessary risk.
City spending should prioritize core services, infrastructure, and public safety — not short-term decisions that create long-term burdens.
Careful financial stewardship keeps Katy strong and protects residents from unnecessary tax increases.
Public Safety & Infrastructure
Safe neighborhoods and reliable infrastructure are essential to maintaining Katy’s quality of life. As our city evolves, we must ensure police, fire, emergency response, roads, and drainage systems keep pace with community needs.
Proactive infrastructure planning reduces congestion, improves response times, and protects homes from preventable risks.
Public safety and infrastructure are not optional; they are the foundation of a strong community.
Community & Accountability
Effective local government begins with listening. Residents deserve transparency, open communication, and leadership that explains decisions clearly.
Accountability builds trust, and trust strengthens communities. I am committed to remaining accessible, responsive, and focused on serving the people of Katy with integrity.
When leadership is steady and transparent, our city moves forward together.
