FOR MAYOR OF GEORGETOWN
Leadership that Listens.
Accountability that Delivers.
Good leadership starts with listening—creating regular opportunities for residents, businesses, and community organizations to have a voice in the decisions shaping Georgetown. Strong leadership also requires accountability—setting clear goals, tracking progress, and communicating openly about both successes and challenges.
THANK YOU
November, 4, 2026
Today, I simply want to say thank you, Georgetown.
Thank you to everyone who opened their door, stopped me at a store, welcomed me into a meeting, attended a Conversation with Kim event, or shared your ideas through a call, text, email, or conversation.
Your hopes, concerns, ideas, and vision for our community have strengthened my campaign and deepened my commitment to making Georgetown an even better place to live, work, play, and raise a family.
A special thank you to the small businesses, community groups, and organizations that hosted conversations throughout this campaign. Your insights were invaluable and your partnership most appreciated.
I've also had the opportunity to hear from visitors from across the country, and their perspective has been refreshing. They remind us of something we sometimes take for granted—Georgetown is truly special. From our vibrant downtown and rich history to our strong schools, thriving businesses, and welcoming community, they see what makes Georgetown stand out.
Whether at Spooktacular, Friday night football, local restaurants, breweries, community events, or neighborhood gatherings, I've been continuously inspired by the pride people have in this community.
I believe Georgetown's future is bright. Together, we can honor our traditions, embrace smart growth, support local businesses, and create a shared vision that carries Georgetown and Scott County successfully into the future.
Thank you for caring. Thank you for being engaged.
Let's build Georgetown's future together.
