Jay Odom Political Statement

Hello, my name is Jay Odom. My wife and I, Mary Touchstone Odom and I are both 1973 graduates of West Orange High School. Careers moved both of us out of the area after graduating. After retirement I moved to Rayburn Country in Brookeland, TX and shortly afterwards moved back 'home'.

I want to be involved in our community and being retired, I certainly have the time to put into serving you on the West Orange City Council as Alderman.

In the past I served as the Deeds and Restrictions Chairman  in Pinehurst HOA in Baytown, TX. 

While serving as the Deeds and Restrictions Chairman I worked diligently to protect the value of our neighborhood and the rights of the individual homeowner.  

Living in Brookeland, I served on the HOA Board of Directors in Rayburn Country because I felt it was very important that our HOA work to provide an the best  lifestyle possible while also protecting  the value of our homes  in Rayburn Country. 

It is my desire to work with fellow Aldermen, the Mayor and residents to define  specific goals that will ensure the safety and welfare of our neighborhood and the families that reside in West Orange, TX. I also want to assist our city by interfacing with other local leaders and officials to help us to achieve our goal to make West Orange a better place to live.
