A Family Rooted in
Kingsville
"My wife, Haley, and I moved back to our home town to raise our kids and start a business. This community means everything to us."
Dennis and his family are proud to call Kingsville home. From coaching local sports to leading community events, and their downtown business, Dennis is invested in this community. Every decision Dennis makes as Mayor is guided by a simple question: "Will this make Kingsville better for the next generation?"
What Have Your Tax Dollars Been Spent On?
A clear look at what Kingsville invests in its infrastructure each year — and the gap we still have to close.
Annual Infrastructure Investment
Kingsville's yearly spend on existing infrastructure, against what is actually needed to keep it in good repair.
We should be spending $18M annually on our current infrastructure. We are only spending $11M.
That's up from just $7M in 2022 — real progress, but not yet where we need to be.
A Top Priority
Resilient infrastructure is one of our most important jobs as a municipality. We need to continually invest and ensure this stays a top priority.
