My Vision for Our City
Over 19 years ago my family chose to make Cedar Park our home because we wanted an affordable, safe, and fun place to raise our kids. As they’ve grown up, so has our city–from a small town of around 36,000 to a small city expected to surpass 100,000 residents in the next few years.
I’m running for re-election to continue civility and productive collaboration with our city council and ensure we are focusing on solving the challenges of the years ahead. From high-quality jobs and excellent sports, cultural, and entertainment options, to reducing traffic and addressing public safety concerns, to further improving our infrastructure, parks, and trails, there’s a lot to do to keep our city a great place to live, work, and play. Together we can make the best decisions for who and where we are now, with a discerning eye on how to prepare for the future.
Meet Heather
Heather Jefts is a small business owner, community leader, and member of the Cedar Park City Council who’s been proud to call Cedar Park home for 19 years. She lives with her husband Richard in the Forest Oaks neighborhood with their two sons, 24-year-old David and 20-year-old Will, and the family’s two big dogs.
During her tenure on City Council, Heather has prioritized bringing in quality jobs and businesses, lowering the tax rate and creating Cedar Park’s first-ever Homestead Exemption, public safety improvements, traffic and mobility solutions, infrastructure and sustainable growth, and new parks and trails.
My Priorities
Having quality representation starts with accessible representatives. It’s not always easy to track down those representatives when you need them. I’ve held over 90 open office hours since first beginning this journey in 2017, and I will continue to be available whenever you need me, either virtually or face-to-face. I respond to letters, emails, and phone calls, along with posting and highlighting Council Meeting agendas, public meetings, and city-wide events. I want to empower everyone to participate in our community decisions.
