Justin Bond aims to build stronger communities.
His teams have shown success by acquisition and development of prime real estate, reliable delivery of new residential subdivisions, persistent recruitment of new commercial and industrial tenants, and strategic communications with a wide range of stakeholder groups.
Bond is the Chief Operations Officer for R.A. Development and Bransom Management in Burleson, Texas. He previously served as Director of the Development Services team for the City of Burleson, bringing new businesses into town, assisting applicants through the municipal review process, and encouraging growth in the community that matches the desires of its citizens.
Before that, Justin managed a public affairs team for Chesapeake Energy in the Barnett Shale region of Texas, where his work focused on site development and community education for the urban drilling and production of natural gas. He also worked in Washington, D.C., supporting Congressman Joe Barton as a legislative aide, and as a project manager for Basden Steel, a local manufacturer in Burleson.
Justin resides in Burleson with his wife, Lauren, and five amazing children: Elizabeth, Ryer, Joy, Anne and Grace. His Australian Shepherd, Sandy, would also like to be mentioned as an important part of his life.
