Chris Stevens for Better, Smaller Government

If you didn't know... I'm out of the race

2010-03-26T09:30:00.001-05:00

I am out of the race and supporting Joanna Sharp. We had a dialogue about where she stood on the issues and I was satisfied that she would be an excellent councilwoman. I felt that though I had every right in the world to run, the issues, causes and movements I support are better served by having them united behind Joanna Sharp.

Chris Stevens

for City Council

Thank you to all my friends who have received and shared information on local, state and national politics, government and current affairs via email with me for so long. Today I am announcing something very exciting and very local to League City, Texas. So for those of you far flung around the country I am sorry to load you up with this but maybe you can send $5 or $10 my way to help the effort!

I am running for League City Council Position 7. Jim Nelson,

whose time and commitment to our seniors will always be remembered, has chosen not to run again. League City is blessed to have four individuals who care enough about it and good government to put their names forward for the position and its my honor to be one of them.

League City is a wonderful place filled with some of the best people in the world. We are blue collar plant workers, NASA employees and contractors, fishermen, business owners and much much more, all together in a small town with a rancher/farmer heritage. We are new here as well third, fourth, fifth and so on generation here. We are fiercely proud and openly welcoming to newcomers at the same time. We are a community, located on Clear Creek. We are League City.

Our biggest challenges are the types that come from being such a wonderful place. Our little city has grown and will grow so fast that we are stretched to the limits dealing with expanding infrastructure and essential services to meet the needs of all the new residents and businesses.

Your support will establish this campaign as the early leader and help promote League City citizens' desire for common sense conservative, small but effective government and a lower taxes point of view. Come on let's work together and put an end to the "feel good spending" that so often actually frustrates the very real and important work of local government.

My goals are to maintain and increase the city focus on critical infrastructure (water, sewer, streets, increased traffic mobility, drainage) and essential services (police, emergency management, EMT's and fire, garbage collection) while constantly evaluating other government efforts in a long term approach to seeing lower taxes & fees. Together with this focus we can improve & maintain the quality of life in League City while also easing the burden on taxpayers for the cost of government.

I am running for City Council because of what I owe back to my community and neighbors and I mean to deliver everyday once elected!

All my best,

Chris Stevens

Chris Stevens' Endorsement for Mike Lee and Mick Phalen

2009-05-05T08:44:00.013-05:00

     Here in League City early voting runs through May 5th, 7am to 7pm at our Johny Arolfo Civic Center (That's TODAY! For most of my neighbors reading this). Election day is Saturday, May 9th and polls will be at the regular municipal locations.
     League City Conservatives, please help begin the rally that returns our small government, fiscal and community conservative ideals back to government.

Mick Phalen is a U.S. Veteran and a solid business conservative. His succesful career spans decades in financial management through some of the most challenging and profitable periods in our country's recent history. Even in retirement, Mick Phalen's leadership was key to turning around the finances and future of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Galveston County.
     Please support Mick Phalen to return a sense of community and normalcy back to League City government. (Select here to see Mick's website.)

Mike Lee, with a BBA in Finance from Sam Houston State University, brings more fiscal conservatism to the table. He worked for several years in the private sector before launching a successful company of his own, The Terra Bella Group. Mike Lee will bring a fantastic skill set to council, keeping city finances in the black while keeping our roads moving with plenty of "black top".
We have nothing to apologies for in being a city that overwhelmingly supports conservatives and we have everything in the world to be proud of when we turn out and vote for "our guy" Mike Lee.(Select here to see Mike's website.)

Phyllis Sanborn has served faithfully for her first term on council and is our best bet in moving the city forward and past the rancor injected by many of her colleagues past and present. Phyllis's integrity and sincere desire to serve her constituents has been evident throughout her term. Those who meet her personally recognize her veracity as she works to keep League City a wonderful place of "Friendly Folks and Shady Oaks".

I truly hope that every conservative finds this blog post inspiring enough to get out and participate in their local process. Go make something happen, even if it's just one vote.

Sincerely,
Chris Stevens
