There's a text message going around that seems to suggest I have plans to change the character and culture of the Antique District in Denham Springs.

Let me be perfectly clear: As Mayor, I have absolutely NO plans to change the Antique District. Whether it's four years from now or eight years from now, I want the Antique District to retain the same historic character that makes it special today.

Denham Springs has been my home since I was 12 years old. Our historic buildings and Antique District are part of what makes this city special. My own family has a personal connection to that history going back generations.

It seems the old regime is so afraid of losing this election that they're resorting to making things up about me out of thin air.

LP Politics as usual. We will rise above it.

I really enjoyed my podcast with McHugh David with The Livingston Parish News. It was a great time reminiscing about the history of the publication and talking about the future of our great city.

"Denham Springs, you deserve a mayor who knows flooding is personal"

I filmed this episode on the Comite River Diversion Canal at the Lilly Bayou Control Structure, which is designed to regulate water flow through the channel and help funnel floodwater toward the Mississippi River.

Flood models indicate that this project could have lowered the Amite River level at Denham Springs by 1–2 feet during the 2016 flood. A difference of just a foot or two could have meant the difference for many families whose homes flooded.

And this is only one part of the solution. Other major flood control projects have the potential to reduce river levels by more than 6 feet under modeled conditions. With $1.7 billion in HUD funding being allocated for flood mitigation, we have an opportunity to take another look at projects that once seemed too expensive to pursue.

Flooding is personal to the people of Denham Springs. We need continued planning, regional cooperation, and a commitment to pursuing every reasonable opportunity to reduce our flood risk. As your next mayor, I will continue to what I started while working for our parish president and push to get these projects funded and change the outlook for our great city.

Because protecting our homes, families, and future matters.
