Q7
Why would you like to serve on the Planning Commission? I have served on the Planning Commission as an alternate and would love to have the opportunity to be reappointed. When initially applied to the Planning Commission, I said that it is the first line of defense, figuratively speaking, in ensuring that our City's land-use decisions are equitable, our General Plan is upheld, and that the community we serve benefits. I recently attended the Planning Commission Academy to ensure I equipped myself with the right tools to support my role as a commissioner. In addition to this appointed position, my job requires deep knowledge of the City's planning process and presence in the community, working 1-1 with homeowners. I am also involved in community groups focused on environmental justice and county-wide housing. The opportunity to serve on the Planning Commission further grounds my commitment to the community.

Q7
Why would you like to serve on the Planning Commission? This is a duplicate application as I was contacted by the Planning Manager to confirm that I had submitted my application. We both reached out to James but without contact or reply.

In short, if the City Council is so inclined to reappointment, I will continue to be an advisor that body, a conduit for the community and an advocate for our City development.
