All our candidate recommendations for the May 6 general election | Opinion
Few parts of our city have seen the development pressure that parts of north Oak Cliff have, and managing that growth responsibly is the main challenge that the three candidates for Dallas City Council must address. West, the incumbent, has a record of leading the planning for north Oak Cliff’s future. We urge voters to return him to council for a third term.
Challenger Sukhbir Kaur is a newcomer to Dallas politics who demonstrates scant knowledge of city government.During four terms representing Dallas City Council District 3, Casey Thomas grew into a thoughtful, passionate champion of quality of life and economic equity in the district and across Dallas.
