Hi, I am James Singleton and serve as your elected City Councilmember in Place 4. My wife, Lynne, and I have five children. They range from toddler to high school.

Dedicated to Jersey Village

From 2001 to 2021

The Singletons have served Jersey Village for the past two decades. We’re not done yet.  The city has a strong character and is well known throughout the Houston area. I am committed to the future and improving our city. We have made signifcant strides towards improving our city.
