In addition, they must <br /> recognize the physical impact on all of those affected. I bring almost 30 years of local <br /> government management experience to this position including extensive local government <br /> budget and finance knowledge. I can easily see the big picture rand will be in a position to use <br /> my analytical skills to evaluate programs and analyze policies. I am a dedicated team member <br /> who can easily adapt and remain flexible as priorities change, and I work well under tight <br /> deadlines. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> Growth in Orange County is inevitable its happening right before our eyes, and it brings with it <br /> many challenges. With the growth will come an even higher level of service demands, and it is in <br /> everyone's interest that the County's Planning road map[to accommodate what lies ahead, is <br /> easily understood and inclusive/representative of the values and cultures of all communities. <br /> Communication is essential in all facets of government-especially in areas where it is critical <br /> that all people understand. <br />
