As we step into a new year, I want to be clear about why I’m running and how I plan to lead.

I’m running for New Braunfels City Council because our city deserves leadership that listens, learns, and represents the people who live here. This campaign is grounded in transparency, accountability, and a belief that local government works best when residents are informed and engaged, not shut out of the process.

Throughout 2026, I’ll be attending City Council meetings, spending time in our community, and continuing to learn how our city operates so I’m prepared to serve effectively from day one. I don’t believe leadership is about having all the answers. It’s about asking the right questions and making sure the voices of our neighbors are carried into the room where decisions are made.

That’s why I’ll be launching a monthly Zoom community forum, Forward Conversations: Your City, Your Voice, to create a consistent space for residents to stay informed, share what’s on their minds, and better understand what City Council can and cannot do. This will be a listening and learning space, because representation only works when communication goes both ways.

If you’re able and want to support this campaign early, donations help fund outreach, materials, and community engagement as we head into the year ahead.

Thank you for being part of this community and for helping move New Braunfels forward.

Forward, together.

Felicia Ray Owens
Candidate for New Braunfels City Council, District 4
