My time as a business owner and my service on the water and server advisory task force <br /> and committee helped me gain an appreciation of how growth can be influenced by a wide range <br /> of factors including the availability of resources needed to nurture, support and enhance growth <br /> within the community. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I have a long history of public service and as a lifetime resident in Orange County I feel I have an <br /> obligation to be a part of the process responsible for shaping its long term strategy and vision. I <br /> am hoping to gain a better understanding of how the planning and development process works. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br /> Orange County Planning Board (REQUIRES DISCLOSURE STATEMENT) <br /> Please list the work/volunteer experience/qualifications that would add to your expertise <br /> for this board. <br /> State Employees€TM Credit Union Advisory Committee <br /> Committee Chair <br /> 2013-Present <br /> Hillsborough Mayoral Election <br /> Mayoral Candidate <br /> 2001 <br /> Hillsborough Water and Sewer Advisory <br /> Committee 2000-2005 <br /> Committee Chair, Town Board Liason <br /> Hillsborough Water and Sewer Task Force <br /> 1999-2000 <br /> Vice-Chair, Authored Final Findings and Recommendations Report <br /> What unique perspective can you bring to the Orange County Planning Board? <br /> As a life-long resident I have quite a bit of history when it comes to the evolution of development <br /> within the county. I understand its people, economy, its natural beauty, as well as many of the <br /> challenges and opportunities residents have living in Orange County. <br /> The planning board probably has a greater opportunity to affect change than most other boards <br /> and organizations. I have a willingness to serve the long range interests of the community and <br /> understand that each decision we make has a long lasting impact. <br />
