Mark Hill is set to become Frisco’s new mayor on July 7, following a contentious runoff election. As an attorney and former Frisco ISD school board member, Hill aims to bring the city together after a divisive campaign.

Hill’s Priorities

Hill’s top priority is to unify Frisco, which has experienced significant demographic change in recent years. The city’s South Asian population has grown from 2% to 33% over the past 20 years, prompting some critics to claim there is an ‘Indian takeover’ of the city. Hill believes that Frisco is a safe community and intends to keep it competitive, especially with businesses moving to Collin County.

Hill also discussed Frisco’s economic growth, with companies and organizations relocating to the area. When asked about Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson’s comments on Collin County cities competing for Dallas businesses, Hill stated that he intends to be extremely competitive and work with the Frisco Council to win those battles.
