With his wife Carissa, opposed sidewalks — their cars overhang their sidewalk pad and they'd face $30,000-$45,000 in driveway and sewer lateral costs.

Co-spoke with her husband Jim; their priority is no sidewalks, which would force them to park in the road nightly.

OpposedMike BeeklerJun 8, 2026

Advocating for his mother at 1525 S. Driscoll; disputed the parking data, saying 16 cars are common and the cameras should have run longer.

Neighborhood spokesperson presenting the case against the design: 96%+ of 32 properties oppose it, parking and emergency access concerns, financial hardship, and a request to deviate from the complete streets policy for this dead-end street.

Declined to give her name publicly; urged a no vote, questioned sidewalk costs and width, cited zero crashes since 2017, and noted other sidewalk-less neighborhoods will face this too.
