Thank you to the voters of Fort Bend Countyfor your support in this year's primary and run-off elections. I look forward to earning your vote on Tuesday, November 6, 2018 in the General Election! Dear Fort Bend County Voter:

The highlights of my educational experience include studying abroad under the late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia as well as clerking for Judge Jeff Brown who now serves on the Texas Supreme Court. My passion for public service and my love for community is reflected in my second term as a Fulshear city council member and in my current position as Mayor Pro Tem. Serving in city government has provided me exceptional opportunities to develop skills that blend well with my legal training. I have helped create sound, conservative, and fiscally responsible policies needed to address issues important to the citizens I am blessed to serve. My education, experience, and public service have prepared me for the challenges of County Court at Law 3 and form the cornerstone of my conservative Christian values which are key to my ability to fairly and impartially adjudicate matters that impact the lives of Fort Bend County residents. I am excited for the opportunity to serve you as Judge of County Court at Law 3 and ask for your vote. I invite you to reach out to me at triciakrenek@gmail.com. Thank you for your support!

I am Tricia Krenek, and it is my distinct honor to present myself to you as a candidate for County Court at Law 3. County Court at Law 3 handles a variety of legal matters that many citizens will encounter, including probate, guardianships, criminal misdemeanors, juvenile matters and civil cases. County Court at Law 3 is unique in that it oversees an advocacy program close to my heart—the Girls’ Court. Under the present leadership of Judge Susan Lowery, the Girls’ Court provides a caring place for young women in personal crisis. This program provides young ladies with discipline, structure, accountability, and direction for their lives, and oftentimes “firm love with a compassionate heart” intended to help guide these young ladies towards making good decisions that will forever change their lives. As your Judge, I am committed to diligently working for all the citizens of Fort Bend County and continuing this important program for our young ladies. The qualities that set me apart and make me the right choice for judge of this court are my servant’s heart; my commitment to conservative, Christian val- Yours in your service, ues; and my dedication to public service. My education, training, and experience provide me a strong foundation to faithfully adhere to a constitutionally sound approach of applying the rule of law as it is written, avoiding judicial activism and administering Tricia Krenek justice in a fair, impartial and compassionate manner.

Experienced. Governed by Christian Values. Passionate about Public Service.

THE BEST CHOICE in the race for Judge, Fort Bend County Court at Law No. 3

She desires to bring her legal skills and keen business acumen to Fort Bend County judiciary.

Professional Experience

As the managing partner of a small litigation boutique firm in Katy with her husband, Ed Krenek, Tricia has a first-hand understanding and respect for the rule of law and experience that makes her the right choice for the County Court of Law bench.

Her experience includes a wide variety of business and commercial litigation, civil rights cases, consumer matters, products liability, shareholder and business organization cases, personal injury, mass plaintiff matters, property tax litigation, wills and probate, trust and estate planning, oil and gas matters, landlord-tenant issues, and a host of other civil cases. Tricia’s successes in the courtroom are the result of her dedication to clients and the law as well as her zeal towards finding a resolution that promotes the interests of the parties involved while remaining committed to upholding the highest standards of the law. Tricia’s business successes, both in and out of the court-

room, have been important in shaping her leadership style as a competent and efficient consensus builder and problem solver.

Additionally, Tricia has worked towards improving educational outreach and lobbying efforts at the local, state and national arenas for Texas Right to Life.

Community Involvement

In addition to her legal and business experience, Tricia has a proven track history of working with people at the local, state and federal levels to provide services to the people of Fort Bend County. Motivated by her desire to serve her community, Tricia was elected to Fulshear City Council in May of 2014, and is currently the Mayor Pro Tem. Tricia passionately supports local or-

ganizations including the Fort Bend County Republican Party as precinct chair, Fort Bend Rancher’s Ball, Texana Steering Committee, Family Hope, Fulshear Police Foundation, Arts Fulshear, Second Mile, American Red Cross, Fort Bend Recovers, Bike for Mike, Keep Fulshear Beautiful and Texas Right to Life, and has chaired fundraisers for several of these organizations.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS! — HOUSTON BUSINESS CONNECTIONS NEWSPAPER© FOCUSED ON THE 2018 “SWING-VOTE”

$992.6 million bond referendum, followed by a projected $705.2 million bond plan in 2021.

FORT BEND ISD – During its August 13 meeting, the Fort Bend ISD Board of Trustees unanimously voted to call a November 6 bond election to address capital needs related to new construction, safety and security, renovations to address maintenance and adequacy throughout the District, and transportation and technology. The development of the $992.6 million bond referendum follows an extensive Facilities Master Planning process that began in January of 2018 to ensure that the District is providing the best learning environments, valuable opportunities and access to programs in accordance with the Board-adopted Profile of a Graduate. This Facilities Master Planning process helped to identify construction projects and other life-cycle maintenance and adequacy needs essential for the next six years, and led to the development of an updated capital plan. This capital plan also includes additional funding for safety and security, technology, and transportation needs.

Note: Taxpayers who have established Over 65 or Disabled Persons exemptions would not be impacted by a potential tax increase, as they have established tax ceilings on their homesteads and those ceilings will not be impacted. As the November 6 bond election nears, there will be many opportunities for members of the Fort Bend ISD community to learn more about the bond program. Details about community meetings will be shared as plans are finalized, with the most up to date information available at www.fortbendisd.com/bond.

$14.9 million to fund safety and security upgrades and investments. $10.6 million for transportation. $142.6 million for technology. $19.7 million for future land purchases. *$5 million program contingency.
