I am interested in helping guide this process to become more considerate <br /> of the environment and of a diverse range of human needs and experiences. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I would like to be a new pragmatic environmentalist voice on the committee. I am interested in <br /> helping craft planning policy that pushes for a more sustainable vision of the future. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br /> Supplemental Questions: <br /> Boards/Commissions appointments: <br /> Other Comments: <br /> This application was current on: 7/5/2019 5:21:52 PM Date Printed: 7/8/2019 <br />
