As a local pastor, I am, in touch with the daily lives of those people through my faith community, and I have a relatively easy time talking to people about the issues that affect their lives. 1: believe that I could be a good conduit for making the opinions of such people heard on the committee. Additionally, as a former academic(with an earned PhD), I bring a wide variety of educational and analytical skills to discussions on a wide range of topics. While II am new to Monroe County, I am learning quickly about the delicate balancing act between tourism and quality of life that I mentioned above. I have made much amateur study of economics, and my vocation focuses my attention on all of the issues that affect the quality of people's hves. I have learned already through conversations with my congregation and participation in the local chambers of commerce how important these issues are to everyone in Monroe County, and II would look E forward to the opportunity to deal with them substantively on a committee such as the TDC. .9 0 CL CL 0 0) U) .2 *LAC meeting packets will be distributed electronically via email to the address you provided on page 2 of this application.
