I have been a resident of the Fort Bragg area since 1988. My wife & I put our children through the Fort Bragg School System. have been employed in Mendocino County in the Resource Management field both in private industry with the timber industry & in a public agency representative capacity. lam interested in assisting the Board with implementation of the CSP to improve the infrastructure & economic development of Noyo Harbor. I am interested in utilizing strategic land-use planning to achieve social developmental goals, in this case the maintenance of a working waterfront that serves commercial & sport-fishing interests as well as related businesses that choose to locate on North & South Basin Drives. Through our youngest daughter's involvement as a Fellow, we are members of The Island Institute, an organization whose primary goals for the state of Maine are also the maintenance of working waterfronts, support of coastal livelihoods, & developing resiliency for marine economies. I would like to help Noyo Harbor achieve those same goals.
