TBOM had been directly involved in the <br />construction of a low cost housing facility in Polk County, prior to my membership but our Board <br />maintained a direct contact in the management of the facility. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />Availability of decent, affordable, housing is fundamental to the functioning of a community. I am <br />particularly concerned that public service employees (police, firemen, etc) be able to afford to <br />live in the community. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />Durham Technical Community College Board of Trustees <br />Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br />Blessed by an outstanding technical education (M.I.T.) & graduate education (MBA - Wharton) I <br />have always believed in the need for continuing education on the part of those interested in <br />having a fulfilling life both for their vocation as well as general knowledge. On a different level I <br />served as a school board member and president of an outstanding elementary school in <br />suburban Chicago. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />To participate in assuring continuing education to those who seek it. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />Durham Technical Community College Board of Trustees <br />What improvements do you believe can be made so that DTCC better serves the <br />residents of Orange County? <br />My residency in Orange County is too new to recommend specific changes. My interest would <br />be to insure that DTCC offers courses to equip Orange County residents for local employment <br />as well as courses of general interest to senior members of the community. <br />19
