Gentry Addresses Baytown Mayoral Race Stance

Tom Gentry, one of five mayoral candidates in Baytown, says the city must face major growing pains. He urges decisive leadership to implement bond-improvement plans, secure surface water supply, curb saltwater intrusion, launch a beautification drive, enforce vacant-lot mowing, establish street striping and traffic control, and consider a personnel manager. He demands collaboration with the school district on parks and calls for fair tax sharing and decisive action to guide orderly growth.
