Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I'm Kayne Parrish, a 5th-generation Texan, constitutional conservative, husband, man of God, and firefighter with over 14 years as a first responder. Raised on a family farm, I grew up valuing faith, hard work, responsibility, and helping others. These are the values that guide everything I do. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Fire Service Administration and am currently working on my Bachelor’s Degree in Public Administration, so I understand both emergency operations and county government inside and out. My experience managing emergencies and leading under pressure gives me the real-world skills needed for this job, especially in emergency management and public safety.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Responsible Growth and Protecting Our Way of Life: Comal County is one of the fastest-growing places in the nation, but reckless development is straining our roads, water, infrastructure, and quality of life. I'll slow overdevelopment, require developers to pay their fair share for roads and services, strengthen subdivision standards and water impact studies, protect our aquifers, wells, Guadalupe River, and Canyon Lake, and balance property rights with smart planning—so we keep our small-town Texas character for families and future generations.
• Public Safety First and Strong Support for First Responders: With over 14 years as a firefighter and first responder (plus my Associate’s Degree in Fire Service Administration and ongoing Bachelor’s in Public Administration), I know emergencies and public safety from the front lines. I'll prioritize funding and resources for the Sheriff's Office, EMS, rural response, law enforcement staffing, equipment, and training to address growth-driven crime and keep our communities safe—because protecting families and being steady under pressure is non-negotiable.
• Fiscal Responsibility, Transparency, and Taxpayer-First Government: I'm not a career politician or insider, I'm a 5th-generation Texan, man of God, husband, and outsider fighter committed to accountability. I'll hold the line on county taxes, uncover and eliminate waste/fraud/abuse, review every contract and budget decision transparently, avoid backdoor deals or special-interest influence (including outside/globalist agendas), and ensure government serves citizens, not developers or elites, delivering ethical, open leadership that puts Comal families and taxpayers first.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Public safety & emergency management: Frontline experience plus my college degrees prepare me to lead as County Judge/Director of Emergency Management, ensuring Sheriff, EMS, and responders get resources for floods, wildfires, and growth demands.

Responsible growth & resource protection: Farm-raised stewardship drives stronger standards, developer-paid infrastructure, water impact studies, and protection of aquifers, wells, Guadalupe River, and Canyon Lake, balancing rights while preserving rural Texas.
Fiscal responsibility & transparent government: Integrity demands holding taxes steady, cutting waste, open processes, no backroom deals, putting taxpayers over special interests.

These reflect faith, service, family, freedom.
