The Flower Mound Town Council election season is underway and voters will have to select their leaders for Place 2 and 5 in the May 2nd election. There are 2 candidates running for Place 2 and 2 candidates for Place 5. David Johnson, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission is running for Place 2 against Sandeep Sharma, the incumbent. We will undoubtedly be receiving many literature mail pieces describing the contenders for those offices. The purpose of these video interviews is to allow voters to see and hear directly from the candidates before going to the polls. My questions are directly related to the issues most Flower Mound residents are concerned with. Videos only run between 8 and 10 minutes, which is long enough to cover salient topics. The following bio was sent by Mr. Johnson.
