Hi folks,

Well as most of you must know by now, we did not win.  The old Mayor is the new Mayor.  I may keep this website for a while and if there is something that I feel that you should hear about, I will send out a message to look.  Thank you all for your help.  When we do this again, the result will be different.

Always remember.  No matter what I do for you I am doggedly determined to do it well, ethically, and successfully.  Bye for now but stay tuned.  We may come back again.  Thanks for all that you did to make this a good run.

I am against 2499 through our neighborhoods that endangers children from either a safety or pollution aspect.  I am against 2499 through our neighborhoods that is uncontrolled, high speed, allows 18 wheelers, hazardous waste transport, or as a bypass when I35 is blocked.  I am against 2499 through our neighborhoods that will pollute the lake.  If any aspects of 2499 are designed or proposed to be this type of road, I am against it.  I am also  against 2499 running through our city that does not have a toll bridge over the lake.  I am against any road including 2499 through our city that does not have a citizen's review committee of folks most affected as final input to the road design.

Bottom line is that if the suit against the Federal Highlway Administration and TXDOT asking for an injunction against proceeding is successful all the above is moot. If the suit is not successful you need someone to help fight for what is right.  I will fight whomever needs to be fought to make sure that the road does not have all the aspects mentioned above.  I really am concerned that whatever we do in the future has more citizen involvement in the final product.

I need your vote on Saturday to be able to deliver on my promise to fight.  Please vote for Fred Busche for your Mayor Saturday between 7AM and 7PM.  I promise to deliver bold leadership for a quality environment.  Thanks for reading.

Hi all,

 Hope you saw the ad in the News Connection today.  I think it describes well what my stand is on 2499 as well as the general air pollution issues that I think we may be faced with as time goes on.  Let me know what you think.

The first week of early voting is over.  Total votes appear to be about 400 or so.  Since one has a choice of LISD only or LISD plus Highland Village, it is hard to know for sure who voted in the municipal election and the LISD bond election or just the LISD bond election.  Hopefully you all have voted in both elections.  We have early voting on Monday and Tuesday from 7 AM to 7 PM.   Then on Saturday, May 10, the fun of election day exists from 7 AM and 7PM.  Come on down even if you have already voted.  We can meet if we have not and talk about things that you like and don't like.  See you then I hope. 

I also hope over the last few weeks I have convinced you that a vote for me is a vote for Bold Leadership for a Quality Environment.  Have a good weekend.

Hi folks,

Tomorrow night you will be able to see all three Highland Village Mayoral candidates in action at the Republican Men's Club and the Lewisville Area Republican Club's forum for contested races in Flower Mound, Highland Village, and Lewisville.  Since the Mayor's race is the only contested race in Highland Village, you will see the three Mayoral candidates discuss the issues.  Each of us will have a 3 minute intro then we will answer written questions from the audience and that will be followed by a 2 minute closing statement.  Hopefully some of you folks can come and join us.  Your questions at the forum will be welcomed. 

Thanks for you support through this campaign.  We cannot get complacent but it would appear that our message is appealing to a majority of our residents.  I need your vote and am asking that you vote for Fred Busche for Mayor of Highland Village.  I am doggedly determined to do a good job as your Mayor.  Let's proceed down the road to a better Highland Village together.

Hi again,

Today is the second day of early voting.  I have attached a sample ballot.  There is only one contested race on the ballot.  All LISD and other Council seats are unapposed except Place 1, Mayor.  There are two LISD proposals on the ballot.  These proposals are requesting a vote of the people to either approve or reject the issuance of bonds for new schools and a performing arts center.  I have taken the liberty of highlighting the Mayoral candidate that should be your choice for better government.  

Vote today from 8AM to 5PM at City Hall, 1000 Highland Village Road.  A vote for Fred Busche is a vote for Bold Leadership for a Quality Environment.
