A Trusted Neighbor for a Stronger Fate

Hi, I’m Stephanie Adams, and my family and I have called Fate home for more than 20 years. My husband Robert and I have three grown children who are all graduates of Rockwall ISD schools.

Over the last 15 years, it has been a privilege to serve the local community in the following positions:

  • Rockwall ISD Board of Trustees, Former Trustee
    • President 2017-2019
    • Vice President 2015-2017
    • Secretary 2014-2015, 2021-2022
    • School Board Trustee, 2011-2023
    • Served on the District Land, Facilities and Construction, and Finance Committees
  • Rockwall County Juvenile Board, Former Board Member 2020-2023

Organizations:

  • Rockwall Women’s League
  • National Charity League-Lone Star Chapter, Sustainer
  • Rockwall Area Chamber of Commerce
  • Friends of the Library

As an experienced licensed real estate professional in the Rockwall County area for almost two decades, I understand how decisions involving zoning, land use, density, infrastructure, and development can shape a neighborhood and affect a city’s future.

I have seen firsthand how growth can impact traffic, schools, public safety, utilities, drainage, property values, and residents’ overall quality of life. I am also familiar with Municipal Utility Districts (MUD) and Public Improvement Districts (PID), and the long-term financial obligations they can create for residents and a city.

During my time on the Rockwall ISD Board of Trustees, we balanced the needs of a growing community with responsible financial stewardship- ultimately lowering the district's tax rate to its lowest level in 30 years.1

I will bring that experience to evaluating potential development projects, thoughtfully and responsibly. I understand responsible growth involves more than simply approving or opposing a development. I will work to ensure each proposal aligns with Fate's long-term vision, strengthens our community, protects taxpayers, and provides lasting value for the people who call Fate home.

I want to use my experience to serve as our next city council member for Place 1.
Everything I’ve learned has strengthened my belief that public service must be about the people, not politics.

As your next council member, I am committed to serving with integrity, building trust, strengthening our community, and bringing proven leadership to the decisions shaping Fate’s future.

Building Community. Strengthening Relationships.

Moving Fate Forward.

Fate deserves leaders who unite people around what matters most to our community: transparent governance, public safety, responsible growth, strong city services, and fiscal responsibility. As a proven leader, I am ready to get to work!

Steady, Ethical Leadership

A clean slate and a unifying voice, I will work to build trust in city council through open, honest conversations and accountable, respectful leadership, strengthening relationships among residents, city staff, public servants, and elected officials so every voice is heard.

Responsible Growth

As our city moves forward, I believe it's important to balance responsible growth with the small-town charm, open space, and quality of life that makes Fate a special place to call home. That means planning ahead for the roads, infrastructure, and public safety resources our growing population needs.

People First — Always

I’ll support local businesses, encourage a strong local economy, and make sure residents feel heard and included in the decisions that shape our community.
