English Hill Lane <br /> Hillsborough NC 27278 <br /> Phone (Day): 919-719-7549 <br /> Phone (Evening): 919-753-6687 <br /> Phone (Cell): 919-753-6687 <br /> Email: cojohnst @gmail.com <br /> Place of Employment: The Hill Center <br /> Job Title: Technology Support Specialist <br /> Year of OC Residence: 2000 <br /> Township of Residence: Hillsborough <br /> Zone of Residence: <br /> Sex: Male <br /> Ethnic Background: Caucasian <br /> Community Activities/Organizational Memberships: <br /> I regularly donate time, money, and blood, to dii-€erent organizations as needs arise, <br /> including the American Red Cross, Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, and political <br /> advocacy organizations. <br /> Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br /> None <br /> Boards/Commissions applied for: <br /> Hillsborough Planning Board <br /> Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br /> UNC Chapel Hill Political Science/Public Policy major, Urban Planning Minor. Considering <br /> graduate school for a masters in Public Administration. I currently work administering IT <br /> systems at The Hill Center, a small school in Durham. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I have a personal interest in town planning, as it was my focus of study in college. I think citizen <br /> involvement is critical in a well functioning and representative town government, and advisory <br /> groups like the planning board are a way for citizens to contribute their time, expertise, and to <br /> be heard. <br /> I came to this town after I graduated from UNC and have decided its a place I want to start a <br /> family. As a homeowner in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) I feel it s important to be <br /> a part of the conversation about our towns direction, as it a—'€ects both the town and those of <br /> us just outside its limits. <br /> I want to be a part of the process. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br />
