Achievements as Council Member (2018 - 2023)

Reduction in Property Taxes

One of my early and major contributions on the Town Council includes more money in the pockets of the Flower Mound residents.

Voted to reduce the property tax rate. This was important because it benefits both the residential and commercial property owners.

Voted to provide homestead exemption to homeowners.

This two-step prcess, was essential in helping Town steadily manage its expenses in response to the resulting changes in expected revenues.

Fiscal Responsibility

Helped reduce the expenditures during budget exercises, and helped prioritize the capital improvement projects.

Successfully led the effort to remove the discussion of Lakeside TIRZ (Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone), and opposed TIRZ #2.

Controlling High Density

With the help of the residents, I was able to pushback on undesirable high-density projects and convince majority of my fellow Councilmembers to see our way.

Voted against and denied many undesirable high-density projects, while encouraging and approving more commercial/Class-A offices in designated parts of the Town.

Traffic Management

Provided strategic direction for further synchronization of traffic lights in Town, using newer technologies.

Worked with rest of the Council and town staff to make much needed improvements to major intersections in town, to move the traffic faster and more efficiently, such as the Long Prairie Rd (FM 2499) and Flower Mound Rd (FM 3040), and FM 2499 and FM 407 intersections.
We were able to prevent Morriss Road expansion and keep it to 4 lanes. The fall in traffic on Morriss, proximity to the neighborhood homes, the multiple school zones along the road, and the road’s layout through the town, do not warrant the Morriss Road expansion. The road’s designation is now changed to Urban Minor Arterial.

Residents Come First

Always listened to the residents of The Town of Flower Mound. I was the main proponent of their wants and needs inside the Town Hall during the Council deliberations, and outside on the items that have major impact on quality of residents’ lives and property value of their homes.

Always priortized residents over developers.

Protecting the Master Plan

I am also committed to the preservation of the Cross Timbers Conservation Development District (CTCDD), and successfully initiated removal of cluster development option from CTCDD.

I and 2 other Councilmembers denied a Master Plan Amendment (MPA) in Denton Creek District Area Plan in Canyon Falls.
As, I have always said that if we amend the Master Plan, it should benefit the Town and its residents. With that in mind, I voted against many MPAs, but was okay with certain amendments, such as, to adopt the Lakeside Reuse Water Master Plan.

Work Left to Do

However, our work is not done, since there is need for continuous improvement to our quality of life, and there is no end to proposals for projects that push the envelope.
I am continuing to stay involved in various capacities.
I am hoping that more residents will step forward, and take on this work.

Testimonials

"Having known Sandeep for several years now and watching his actions while working with others on the Town council, I feel very confident in endorsing Sandeep for another term on the Flower Mound Town council. He has proven himself, and demonstrated that he is very thoughtful and balanced in making decisions in the overall best interest of our Town and it's citizens. He understands the value of our Master plan, and provides leadership we can trust. Sandeep has my full support."
Rick Lust
Mayor Emeritus

"Sandeep Sharma has done an outstanding job on the Town Council during the short 2 years he has served. He is fully engaged and leaves no doubt that his concerns and actions are in support of the residents of Flower Mound. He has represented us by responding to our concerns on high density housing and voting down the Lakeside Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone, which would have ultimately cost the citizens of Flower Mound while over-compensating developers. It is my hope that the residents will join me in re-electing him to the Town Council - he is a valuable resource to the community. "
Steve P.
Resident of Flower Mound

"Why Sandeep Sharma earned our vote again: He listens to learn. He is accessible and responsive. He does his homework, evaluates, questions. He represents his constituents. He is reliable, resourceful and respectful."
Marcia and John Blair
Residents of Flower Mound
