Initially, I would meet friends at 29'r Diner for breakfast on the weekends so that I could watch the aircraft takeoff and land and as my family grew, we would attend the various activities at the airport. Recently, I acquired my Private Pilot's license, joined PAPA and I have been involved with the monthly Display Day at the airport. As a result, I have become much more aware of the day to day operations and issues that Petaluma Municipal Airport faces and as I believe that Petaluma Municipal Airport is not only a tremendous resource for the pilots, but also for the local community. As such, I would like to take a more active role in helping maintain the viability and growth of Petaluma Municipal Airport. is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? 17 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing our duties if appointed to thisposition?

I'm a student pilot, event planner, community organizer, web developer, corporate compliance officer, and North Bay native. What is likely to distinguish me from other candidates is my experience as a public speaker, marketer, and inclusive community builder. I am skilled at working with diverse communities, doing outreach and education, facilitating difficult conversations, generating consensus, and creating environments that are welcoming to underrepresented and underserved communities. I am also capable of scrutinizing financial statements, building budgets, maintaining financial controls, and looking after small nonprofits. I also have an undying love of the commons, including civic spaces, public domain art and photography, open source software, and shared resources like community media centers and municipal airports! 29 College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): Santa Rosa Junior College, Philosophy, 2007-2008 San Diego State University, Pre -journalism, 2006-2007 Technology High School, 2002-2006 Special Awards of Recognition Received: N/A Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: I fly out of Petaluma Municipal Airport regularly, and I think my unique skillset and my youth would make me a great addition to the skills and perspectives already present on the Airport Commission. Goals: * A moderately active web presence for Petaluma Muni that serves to engage the community. * Outreach directed at bringing students and underrepresented people into the aviation community. * Collaboration with community organizations outside of the aviation community. • Cultivate more advocates for Petaluma Muni among Petaluma residents. * Maintain airport facilities and balanced budgets. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I've wanted to learn to fly my entire life and started about a year ago. Since, I've accumulated nearly 50 hours in-flight out of Petaluma Muni, become a member of the Petaluma Area Pilot's Association, and started to get acquainted with the aviation community including other members of the Commission. I'm new to the local aviation community, but have friends and family who live in Petaluma, am well acquainted with several Petaluma -specific communities, and have lived in the county most of my life. That is to say: I am invested in Petaluma Muni, known in the community, and can be both a powerful advocate and productive liaison.

I'm a Registered Civil Engineer with over forty years of experience in Petaluma and elsewhere. I;m keenly aware of the connections between land -use patterns and community values such as housing affordability, mobility options, greenhouse gas reductions, and municipal finances. In my semi -retirement, I've chosen to become active in these fields, through membership and participation in national organizations and through local organizations that I've helped found. This background will be brought forward to any City body to which I might be appointed. I've also written extensively, on my own blog and as a free-lance writer for the Petaluma Argus Courier, on land -use concerns that often touch upon transit. I spoke at the StrongTowns national conference about the integration of local mobility options with regional rail in Petaluma. Earlier this year, I coordinated event logistics and am overseeing a summary of conclusions for the Congress of the New Urbanism California Climate Adaptation Council. Most recently, I've embarked on a study of the issues involved in the implementation of VMT as a CEQA standard so that I can better fill my role on the Petaluma VMT Technical Assistance Committee.

I want to bring that passion to bear on making Petaluma the best place possible. If reappointed to the Transit Advisory Committee, I'd work to find the best ways to serve the segments of the public that rely on transit, fixed -route and paratransit, to seek out opportunities to entice people with multiple options to choose the bus, to promote the integration of SMART rail with Petaluma Transit routes in hopes of encouraging more rail ridership, and to encourage the integration of land use and transit. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? In my roles with Petaluma Urban Chat, Know Before You Grow, and the Urban Community Partnership, along with my history of blogging on land -use issues, I've taken and likely will take positions that may result in a perceived inability to judge an issue fairly. To the extent that those concerns arise, I'll recuse myself. Also, as noted above, I'd be willing to serve on another committee if there are insufficient applicants. Furthermore, I'd be willing for an appointment to be deemed interim until new applicants can be found. Meanwhile, I'm using my personal platforms to encourage Petalumans to take part in civic life through the commissions/committees/boards opportunities. 52 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest In performing our duties if appointed to thisposition? I'm self-employed and occasionally have roles on project teams working on land -use projects within Petaluma. At this time, none of my project roles have apparent conflicts with transit issues. However, if future conflicts arise, I'll readily recuse myself. If so, please state name of Organization/Employer: Self-employed.

Prior to starting my own business, I was Development Director for KQED+M and Director of Corporate Support for KQED, Inc. These positions familiarized me with grant writing for non-profit organizations. Grant writing was not my specialty, but I supervised staff who wrote grant proposals on behalf of KQED. It is possible that this experience could directly apply to projects the Tree Advisory Commission will pursue. Now that Petaluma is coping with the added financial burdens imposed by the coronavirus, it may be necessary to look for outside funding for tree -related projects. After leaving KQED, I founded The Natural Gardening Company (TNGC), the nation's oldest certified organic nursery. As owner of TNGC, I oversaw and implemented many aspects of the businesses operations: marketing, budgeting, accounting, long-range planning, plant production, press relations, and staff supervision. I know how to formulate and execute a plan, and while trees were not part of our inventory, I have a broad overview of organic plant production and horticulture.

Due to the end -of -year holidays and the pandemic, we have had only two regularly -scheduled monthly meetings since my appointment. Despite the interruptions, these meetings allowed the commission members and Cindy Chong to get acquainted and to begin to develop a feeling of cohesion so that we might pursue projects together. We were headed in a good direction at our final meeting in February, having organized a sub -group to begin work on enhancements to the city website, when the pandemic interrupted our work. I would like to have another term on the commission to contribute to this and other projects.

Having a degree in Communications, and several years of retail customer service experience, allows me to connect with many different sectors of the City's populace. This would aid in my ability to understand and balance the needs and desires of both the City and its citizens as it pertains to issues surrounding trees. I have an extensive marketing background from both advertising agency account management as well as product management for global consumer brands. I am also a very creative individual, with unique ideas on how to communicate messages. For example, this past Earth Day, despite the overarching pandemic of COVID-19, 1 felt strongly about the need to still commemorate the occasion's 60th Anniversary. Involving my children in the effort, we set about to create an artistic front yard installation that both drew attention to the moment in history, as well as facilitated a call to action for passersby. From a table in our driveway, we offered free live oak tree starts my children had salvaged from our side yard as well as Crape Myrtle seedlings (both approved City trees), along with planting instructions, to encourage people to take an active role in "being an Earth Life Saver. We continued this messaging and offer on Arbor Day just a few days later and were thrilled to see that all 18 trees found new homes within the community. This creative effort was recognized in "The Buzz" section of the Petaluma Argus-Courier the following week(https://www.petaluma360.com/entertainmenYI0926285-181/the-buzz-saving-the-earth? sba=AAS). I also helped spread the word by tagging photos of our work to a global effort to celebrate Earth Day, #OurPlanetOurHome, via my Instagram account. In addition, I communicated with Mary DeMocker, author of, "The Parents' Guide to Climate Revolution," who helped inspire my project, which resulted in her sharing our message to global groups with even greater visibility, such as Our Kids Climate. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): University of Washington, Bachelor of Arts in Communications, 1992-1996 Special Awards of Recognition Received: Graduated University of Washington, B.A., Summa cum Laude 79 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisor body: I would like to become a member of the Tree Advisory Committee as 1 see it serving an increasingly important role for the City of Petaluma as we move forward in a state of climate crisis. It is generally known that carbon sequestration is critical in our attempt to halt, if not reverse, the negative effects our current lifestyle is having on Earth's environment. One of the simplest ways to aid in this process is to plant more trees.... this would be my primary goal in joining the advisory board. I would also like to have a greater understanding of the protections that exist for our heritage trees, as well as the guidelines set forth for tree planting and/or removal in both public and private space within the City of Petaluma, with the objective of helping to educate our citizens in this regard. Additionally, I would like to take an active role in partnering with various organizations and seek out grant funding in order to help facilitate the implementation of the City's tree initiatives. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? My desire to combat the climate crisis has been slowly re-emerging as I find myself with ever more time and bandwidth to turn my attentions to this issue. I have long considered myself someone who prioritizes the environment, but any significant actions were put on the back burner as l took on the role of full time parent just over 14 years ago. As my three children have grown, so has my desire to protect and preserve the Earth they will inhabit, as well as my awareness of the climate challenges we increasingly face. In recent years, I've found myself angered each time I noticed another tree missing and more passionate about doing something about it. This past February, I attended a talk here in Petaluma given by Mary DeMocker, the author of the book, "The Parents' Guide to Climate Revolution." Her informative and inspiring presentation filled me with ideas that I wanted to implement, organizations I wanted to join, and great nuggets of information on how, as a busy parent of three children, to re-engage in the climate revolution. As one small step, I joined the Arbor Day Foundation this spring and turned its free seedlings to new members into a community offering as a way others too could take a part in helping preserve our planet. I view my application to be a part of the City's Tree Advisory Committee as yet another step in my efforts to make positive change for Petaluma's environment.

I would support the committee's effort to obtain sufficient allocation of funds to support the plan's aims. This would include working toward the approval of the GoSonoma Act by the majority of local cities and speaking in support increasing the portion of Measure M funds that are allocated to safe bicycle & pedestrian infrastructure. As much as is possible in a position in PBAC, 1 would join the committee in increasing equitable, alternative transportation in the interest of contributing to fulfilling the goals of the City of Petaluma's Climate Action Commission. As a member of PBAC, I would focus on representing Petaluma's visions of energy efficiency and equity in accord with the Petaluma Climate Emergency Action and Engagement Plan Framework. is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I have been a bicycle commuter for much of the last fifteen years, most of which has been spent riding in Petaluma. As such, I have a certain level of personal familiarity with a number of the local issues at hand concerning the bicyclist and pedestrian needs. I also bike commuted in Seattle, WA, and Portland, OR, where pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and cultures are comparatively well -developed. It was inspiring to see how, in many cases, surrounding suburban areas followed after Seattle and Portland, especially where there are networks connected in large part by Rails -to -Trails Conservancy. I look forward to seeing to what extent it is feasible for the City of Petaluma to adopt similar principles in order to attain shared aims how it is possible to do so here.

Having lived in a number of diverse places around the country, I've been involved in several active transportation efforts across various organizations. In New Orleans I was an avid biker, biking to work almost daily, participating in group rides, and won first place in the citywide Eat Local Footprint Challenge put on by local bike advocacy group Bike Easy. In Santa Cruz I continued to bike to work and go by foot on short trips around town, in lieu of driving. I participated in numerous bike events throughout the city, volunteered with Ecology Action (a local environmental non-profit) and Bike Santa Cruz County, and was trained as a Bike Ambassador for the city of Santa Cruz's bike share program. I was elected to the board of Bike Santa Cruz County and shortly after to Santa Cruz County's Regional Transportation Commission's Bicycle and Pedestrian Advocacy Committee. Due to an unexpected move for work, I left Santa Cruz and have been loving Petaluma since October 2018. In January 2019 1 joined Bike Petaluma's Leadership Committee, and in May 2019 1 began a fellowship with America Walks (national non-profit promoting walkability). Through the fellowship I learned about urban planning, zoning, how to engage local politicians, and how to effectively work with community stakeholders. I completed the fellowship in late 2019, with a presentation of my Walking Action Plan for Petaluma to PBAC. This plan included a collision analysis of Petaluma and results of a walking audit I conducted with community members. I believe my previous board member experience and involvement in bicycle and pedestrian improvement efforts over the years will serve me well on the City of Petaluma's committee. My studies and work in public health have provided me ample experience leading meetings, engaging community members, and working with others on committees and projects. .c College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): Montclair State University (Bachelor of Science in Nutrition and Food Science with a concentration in Dietetics, 2013) Tulane University (Master of Public Health with a concentration in Nutrition, 2015) Special Awards of Recognition Received: Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: While living in New Orleans I was hit by a car while biking.

I want to make biking and walking safer for everyone through improved infrastructure, better policy, and education for cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers. It is my belief that roads should be safely shared and cities should support protected paths for cyclists and pedestrians when using active transportation for commuting and leisure.

The resulting increased number of families and neighbors biking and walking by has been such a positive change for the neighborhood. As a committee member, I would like to work towards increasing the number of safe biking and walking paths throughout the city. I believe the two are often hand in hand --when we create safe bike paths on our roads, the adjacent walking paths become safer and more enjoyable. I am very interested in ensuring that the SMART train station (and the future Corona Station) are safely and conveniently accessible to both pedestrians and bikes. I also would love to someday see one of the North -South streets in downtown become permanentlyclosed to cars (Water St or Kentucky).

I have developed a comprehensive understanding of bicycle/pedestrian planning through my education and professional experience, both of which are in urban and transportation planning and policy. In addition to my role at Marin County Bicycle Coalition, I spend a significant amount of time advocating for better bicycle/pedestrian infrastructure through several Board and Committee roles. I am extremely passionate about transportation and the role our public streets and pathways play in creating a happy, healthy, equitable, and sustainable community. I experience cities as someone who relies on my feet, bike, and transit to get around. I experience cities as the son of someone who suffered from mobility issues. And I experience cities as someone who strongly believes that no traffic -related injuries or fatalities are acceptable. If re -appointed, I will continue to work to make Petaluma a place where everyone —regardless of age, ability, or income —has safe, convenient, accessible, and dignified mobility options.

I regularly give presentations to PBAC on topics relevant to our work, identify opportunities to fund and implement improvements, and spearhead or volunteer for sub -committees and projects. Over the past year, 1 have assisted staff with an outline, schedule, and outreach strategy for the City's Bicycle/Pedestrian Master Plan update (for which the City recently issued a Request for Proposals). I would like to see this effort through and continue to assist staff and PBAC through the update process.

Civic or Charitable Organization to which you have belonged, Position/Office Held, and Dates: I have not held another official position at any civic or charitable organization. 114 What Special Interests/Skills/Talents would you bring to this Board, Commission, or Committee? Four years ago I wrote the following. It remains so: I have a background and ongoing interest in art and design with two related degrees, one in liberal arts (with a studio art major), one in industrial design. I taught various design courses for over a decade at California College of the Arts. My liberal arts degree continues to serve me well as an independent product designer. In this position I'm a constant critic of how things of all sorts go together, what works and what doesn't, and the trade-offs in making design decisions in widely varying contexts. Sourcing and ultimately specifying something as subjective and as permanent as public art involves many varied and complex issues similar to those I've dealt with for twenty plus years. And to that I'll now add these skills/talents that have been enhanced and refined by my committee membership. LISTENING / EMPATHIZING: While I've been told professionally and at home that I have a reasonably good ability to listen and empathize, several proposed public art projects that generated avalanches of competing, strident views forced me to dig even deeper. Hearing everyone, no matter his/her background or position, is critical to making informed, sound decisions. It's been a great, ongoing, yet manageable test to stay keenly tuned into individuals and groups while serving the greater community. PROCESS: A good, proven design process drives my professional work. Since every project is different the process must evolve as needed. And one must maintain faith in the process. More than I could have imagined, bringing public art to public spaces benefits tremendously from following a well -considered, thoughtful process. Should 1 be reappointed to the PPAC I would work to continually improve the process we employ to do the community's work. My thoughts on process could be summed up as: do your homework to build a good one, follow it faithfully, yet be flexible enough to adjust as circumstances dictate. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): Hamilton College - Liberal Arts, Studio Art- BA 1988 California College of the Arts - Industrial Design - BFA 1997 Special Awards of Recognition Received: n/a 115 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: Four years ago I wrote: Contributing to the Public Art Committee would give me an opportunity to give back to the city in an area that uses my talents and capabilities. I have an appreciation for public spaces and how we interact with them. I have a reasonably good grasp of some of the issues that surround the effort to solicit, select and install art appropriate to public spaces. But I know that I would learn a great deal from other committee members and look forward to contributing to a strong collective effort. Recent history says the effort has been a challenging one for our city, but I'm up for the challenge. I would like to be part of the team that develops the best, most appropriate solutions for spending the community's public art dollars. I'm a supporter of expenditures on public art, public gathering spaces and other amenities to make our city as livable as possible. Yet that support is not blind. Each effort - each art installation in this case - must be well -considered, well -planned, well -maintained and done with a strong eye on the long term value to the community. The same holds true now. I would add that: I'm grateful for the experience of serving as a committee member. Now I feel I can contribute even more. While the PPAC matured as an institution during the past four years, members frequently felt set back by circumstances. While the committee was often limited by ongoing, momentum -sapping turnover with the staff liaison position, we consistently met with a full agenda and moved ahead with a number of worthwhile projects. Some significant projects are incomplete and I would appreciate the opportunity to help realize them to the highest level. Further, I would like to continue to try to raise the bar of expectation for civil and constructive discourse surrounding the committee's work as well as help raise committee standards in the performance of our shared duties.

Increasing affordable housing options as well as making commercial space more desirable thereby increasing tax revenue. Traffic solutions are essential with a growing population. This could mean many options including, but not limited to, ride share incentives, public transit incentives, improved road system, as well as additional options. Imagine yourself as a visitor to .Petaluma. What do you see physically, economically, and environmentally as , .you walk around town? Petaluma has an outstanding and marketable downtown. There are vacant lots and unused buildings around town that can be utilized for creative public offerings. Environmentally, Petaluma can be cleaner in all aspects. Green solutions are a must for Petaluma. 125 The General Plan (Plan) is the guiding document and vision for the City. How would you interpret the policies and goals articulated in the plan? How flexible would you be and would you feel comfortable not approving specific land uses allowed in the Plan? This question requires a balance of hardships. My comfort would depend upon the specific circumstances for and surrounding the use. Ultimately, my interpretation would look towards the long and short term success of Petaluma. If a use is in the best interest of Petaluma and its residents, a policy should be interpreted accordingly. The growth managements has been an element of the development process in Petaluma since 1972, and an Urban Growth Boundarywas .adopted in 1998 to control, the physical growth of Petaluma. With these .two major policies in mind, and given the pressure for ongoing growth during the next decade or so, what .two. or. three policies ,and programs would ,you promote to protect the, historic, cultural, and physical aspects of Petaluma? Programs to increase and support diversity so that all feel welcome and supported in Petaluma are a must. The preservation of Petaluma's historic charm should be maintained through programs and policies that enhance protection of historic sites. Development of vacant or abandoned areas throughout town should be explored for development potential. I would promote the revitalization of "run down" areas and shopping centers to try to bring them in line with more new centers. At the very least increasing lightling in areas that people currently avoid at night because they are unlit. 126 How would you address current and future flooding issues for Petaluma? Looking at environmentally friendly ways to prevent flooding on the river. I would advocate permeable pavement where appropriate. Listening to experts on flooding and taking their suggestions where appropriate for Petaluma. How would you address current and future traffic congestion in Petaluma? Encouraging greener options for travel. Where necessary, improving and increasing road access. Adding "blinking yellow" left turn signals where appropriate. Not only does this help traffic, but it prevents idel vehicles and emmissions. 127 What infill policies do you think should be adopted in light of the Urban Growth Boundary passed by the voters? Development of sensible affordable housing is a must. If people cannot afford to live in Petaluma, growth is limited. I am a supporter of live work spaces and complexes that are mixed use. Accessory dwelling units may be helpful. Where appropriate and possible, moving parking underground or on the ground floor of a complex can help clean up the parking situation.

You may submit additional sheets, if necessary, to complete your answers. Have you attended any meetings of the Planning Commission? � 11 Yes No If so, date: Ivarious dates from 2015 to present What do you think qualifies you to serve on the Planning Commission? I've lived in Marin and Sonoma since 1974. 1 understand the lifestyle, community history and growth patterns that have impacted our way of life over the past 40 years. I graduated from Sonoma State Univ with a BA in Environmental & Urban Studies, and subsequently went to work for the City of Novato as a Planner. I then went into real estate development and management having worked for Kaiser Hospitals, Rite Aid drugstores, Starbucks Coffee, JLL and others as a real estate Director or VP. Over the past 10 years, I have been a national real estate developer and broker. I have interacted with dozens of city and county agencies by processing numerous applications for development, including General Plan amendments, rezonings, design reviews, use permits, variances, subdivisions, and all types of environmental review per CEQA (cat expempt, neg dec, EIR's). I've made public presentations and led neighborhood meetings. My experience and community understanding bring a unique perspective to help the City of Petaluma guide its decision making. 134 What do you see as the best solutions, both long and short term, for economic development in Petaluma? For the short term, there are many pressing economic needs that the city must address, including infrastructure repairs, maintenance and pension reform. The quickest action to help generate funds is through proper, managed and community focused retail development. Generating sales tax can help fund the city and provide jobs. For the long-term, a balance with housing and jobs is critical to maintain our Petaluma lifestyle and help to reduce traffic for all. Continuing to encourage higher density thoughtfully -designed housing near transit centers and freeway interchanges, while promoting small business growth in the downtown and larger business enterprises in our office/industrials areas can provide a foundation for long term prosperity. Imagine yourself as a visitor to Petaluma. What do you see physically, economically, and environmentally as you walk around town? I'd like to see a more walk -able / bicycle community with pedestrian focused amenities around open spaces for gathering, combined with small service and retail -food businesses. I'd like to see a mix of larger commercial businesses (higher tech, manfacturing, distribution) along with incubator small business startup programs to attract new and growing concepts. I'd like to promote the Smart Train and other transit options (river based?) to connect our city with other communities. I'd like to promote more wine oriented businesses to locate here. I'd like Petaluma to retain its charm while growing with environmental intelligence. 135 The General Plan (Plan) is the guiding document and vision for the City. How would you interpret the policies and goals articulated in the plan? How flexible would you be and would you feel comfortable not approving specific land uses allowed in the Plan? Having worked on a version of the General Plan for the City of Novato, I have some experience with the various elements and state requirements. I would interpret the policies and goals as guidelines for the growth and management of the city. In interpreting the Plan, I would review projects within the light of specific goals and objectives and whether the project adhered to such, with room for adjustment or conditions that direct a more compatible solution. I believe that conditions of approval can help certain projects survive if the intent is in alignment with the Plan. However, if the variables are too far off and the project can not be altered to better align with the GP and zoning (plus any are -specific plans), then denial is warranted. The growth management system has been an element of the development process in Petaluma since 1972, and an Urban Growth Boundary was adopted in 1998 to control the physical growth of Petaluma. With these two major policies in mind, and given the pressure for ongoing growth during the next decade or so, what two or three policies and programs would ,you promote to protect the historic, cultural, and physical aspects of Petaluma? Higher density and multi -story projects can reduce the need for sprawl and help to preserve our surrounding open spaces. Clustered higher density residential with adjacent retail located near the downtown (walking distance) and transit centers can lessen the need to more land. Petaluma -focused design guidelines can help site planning and direct architecture to preserve our local design standards. 136 How would you address current and future flooding issues for Petaluma? Our storm water infrastructure needs to be analyzed and perhaps expanded to accommodate the rising waters associated with climate change and more intense storms. While the extent of protection is subjective and variable depending on location, we can still accommodate development by including mitigation measures to address the issue, such as podium development (parking on ground floors with living/working space above, which can survive temporary flooding), various pervious surface improvements, retention and detention systems (ponds/lakes), among others. And of course, any development in potential flooding areas should be designed to protect, enhance and utilize the natural river environment. All new development must demonstrate that it will not increase runoff more than currently exists, with bonus points for implementing reduction efforts. How would you address current and future traffic congestion in Petaluma? One suggestion is to implement an Al based traffic control system that provides real-time control of signals throughout the city. Of course repairing our roads will help also. Unfortunately, we are a car based society and we need to address the needs of our current population. However, we can also take steps toward reducing vehicular impacts near sensitive land uses and focus on encouraging electric vehicles and alternative methods of transportation on current and future developments. 137 What infill policies do you think should be adopted in light of the Urban Growth Boundary passed by the voters? I believe higher density housing is appropriate near arterials and transit centers. More live/work projects can help reduce sprawl and encourage less traffic. More multi -story mixed use projects (ie. Theater District), 138 Jeffrey Halbert Proven track record in retail site selection, budgeting, development, leasing and real estate organizational leadership.

During both high school and college, I competed in several team robotics competitions. These competitions ended up taking me all over the state and country, and taught me the value of teamwork, project management, quality control, and problem solving through trial and error. Throughout this period of time, I was also sent to many middle schools and high schools in the county to impress upon students the value of STEM. Though the robot usually stole the presentative, these experiences gave me an early education in how to engage people on subject matters that might otherwise seem opaque or disconnected from everyday life. And even though I ultimately decided to pursue a life of public service, I've carried these lessons to each endeavor that I have undertaken. I am committed to serving my community, and passionate about the power of civic engagement to improve people's lives. This is a belief that I have carried with me throughout my community and political work, and government work. In my last job, I learned how to work with people and communities in crisis, and navigate bureaucracies to help them resolve their issues. In my current role I am working with systems in crisis, and learning how to use policy and communications to move intractable issues. If I have the honor of being appointed, I would use these lessons to better evaluate each decision: keeping in mind both the individual and community impact of each action. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): University of California Santa Cruz, Politics, 2008-2012, Bachelor of Arts, 2012 University of San Francisco, Masters of Public Administration Candidate, 2019 Special Awards of Recognition Received: Young Democrat of the Year, Sonoma County Democratic Party 143 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: My desire to become a member of the planning commission is based in both the duties of the commission and a desire to help Petaluma navigate the housing crisis and future growth.] am a policy nerd, and am especially passionate about land use, zoning, and the financing of affordable, workforce, and housing otherwise referred to as "the missing middle". But beyond that, I am a renter and young working professional who intends to raise a family here. And for the last ten years, I have watched as the housing crisis has increasingly driven up costs and reduced available units in Petaluma. An issue that was made that much more dire by the 2017 wildfires. If I received the honor of being elected by the council, my objective would be to evaluate proposed projects, land use and zoning with an understanding that these decisions have impacts on the social and economic equity of the city, and can have serious ramifications to public health and long term outcomes. Fruthermore, my other objective would also be to work off the foundations already laid out in the general plan and site specific plans to promote infill density of mixed use spaces, while ideally increasing the height of higher density projects. These interests and goals align with my reasons for serving on the Transit Adisory Committee. I am staunch supporter of transit -oriented development and spent the first half of my professional career using public transportation to get across the Bay Area. Healthy and affordable public transportation has a direct impact on the upward mobility of our workforce, and should have a direct impact on land use positions. To this end, it has been an honor to serve on the Transit Advisory Committee this past year. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? In my current role I handle a great deal of emergency communication, and track legislation on housing, and wildfire prevention and recovery. 144 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing our duties if appointed to thisposition? No If so, please state name of Organization/Employer: City policy directs all appointed advisory body members not to vote on matters where there exists a potential conflict of interest.

I believe that both my background and perspective qualify me for this commission. y professional and academic background includes several relevant policy areas, including lend use, zoning, greenbelts, urban growth boundaries, and housing policy® I have helped coordinate the recovery process for 2 major "natural disasters and am well versed in development policy surrounding fire prevention. I have followed the decisions made by the planning commission for `several years, and have reviewed the general plan, housing element, area specific plans, and other documents informing the decision-makingdecision-making process: I am passionate about land use policy because of the impact it has on the social, environmental and economic well-being of a community, A person's zip node is one of many determinants of future health, education, and professional opportunities. How >my family moved to Petaluma made me personally aware of this fact, sty family moved to Petaluma when I was very young during the height of the telecommunications crash, Housing prices had plummeted and we suddenly went from a one -bedroom apartment to a home. By mewing here, we not only left a run-down apartment, but gainedaccess to better schools, healthcare options, and professional opportunities. Land use decisions can quite literally change people's lives. 146 What do you see as the best solutions, both long and short term, for economic development in Petaluma? Following the great recession, Petaluma grew into a tourist destination with a clear emphasis on retail and dining. COVID-19 has thrown a wrench into this approach to economic development. And, even though businesses are starting to re -open, public health officials around the world have made it clear that this is likely not our last pandemic. Furthermore, Petaluma still has to contend with the ongoing threat of wildfires and other climate related disasters. In the face of this uncertainty, Petaluma needs to seriously reconsider how it will move forward. For this to work however, the city needs to continue to focus on high density housing and rental units. This will entail looking at our IZO and current site -specific plans to really evaluate how we are best using infill land. The city should also look into identifying and attracting developers for priority projects and parcels that are actually capable of building affordable units to scale. The state won't bring back re -development and our affordability crisis goes beyond low-income residents. The city should also look into ways to help existing property owners can supplement the costs of retrofitting their land and structures for wildfire prevention and climate resiliency. I understand that this isn't strictly speaking a suggestion for economic development, but a severe wildfire will erase major gains if we don't do more. The city's short-term prospects will have to focus on retaining businesses and residents throughout the current crisis. The city has been noticeably responsive to residents and businesses and has made attempts to help people who are struggling with programs like rental assistance. That being said, this crisis is far from over and the need to look at state and federal funds to help struggling residents will only grow. Imagine yourself as a visitor to Petaluma. What do .you see physically, economically, and environmentally as, you.walk around town? I would have come by train, but that would only allow me to visit the west side of town without walking a great distance. I also find myself wondering why so many people are walking around town without masks, while not socially distanced. The city looks like 2 communities divided by a freeway. The west side has a lovely historic downtown, but few places to shop for affordable items. The prevalence of salons, restaurants and boutiques tells me that businesses on the west side are catering to tourism and people who can afford an active night life. Exploring more of the west side, I see a great number of lovely Victorian homes, and vegetation. I wonder however, why few people seem to be taking vegetation management defensible space standards seriously. I also notice that the rustic but aging homes are probably in desperate need of home hardening upgrades. The east side of town is difficult to walk around. It looks like someone put all of the affordable homes and retail on one side of town. The glaring traffic issues make more sense to me now. The east side doesn't appear to have very many places for community building either. That being said the vegetation management appears to be much better. I also notice that there are 2 large business parks on both sides of town, neither one has decent proximity to housing. Environmentally, I see a community surrounded by farms, marshland and distant mountains that clearly respects open space. I see a river that clearly needs to be dredged, but many wonderful parks. Though upon further inspection, I get concerned about the city's surface and groundwater recharge, and wonder if recent development will withstand major flooding. 147 The General Plan (Plan) is the guiding document and vision for the City. How would you interpret the policies and goals articulated in the plan? How flexible would you be and would you feel comfortable not approving specific land uses allowed in the Plan? Yes, I would be comfortable not approving specific land uses allowed in the plan. The general plan clearly lays out the intent behind its prescribed goals, policies and programs. As a planning commissioner I would keep this in mind when approaching specific land -use decisions. It isn't a fixed document and has seen additions since its last revision, such as the housing element. Considering the issues that we face today, and the approaching general plan update, I believe it is important for commissioners to keep the city's long term needs in mind. The growth management system has been an element of_the development process in Petaluma since 19.72, .and an. Urban Growth :Boundary was adopted in 1998 to control_the physical.growth of Petaluma. With these two major policies in mind, and given the pressure for ongoing growth.during the next.decade or so, what.two. or:three policies ..and programs would you promofe to protect the historic, cultural, and physical :aspects of `Petaluma? Given the two fires we experienced this past weekend near the city's outskirts, I believe we need to focus on maintaining the current UGB now more than ever. First, the city should look at removing height and density restrictions near the defined center of town, while adding stricter design requirements. Second, the city should remove the in -lieu fee exception from the inclusionary zoning ordinance, to require a scale of affordability in every project. Yes, I am aware of the city's modifications to the ordinance. By mandating inclusionary zoning without exception, we are insuring that marginalized members of the community have access to the same proximity of services as those with greater means. Third, the city should aggressively look at potential land buy-back proposals to make better use of existing infill space. I'm aware that this would be expensive. This is a long-term proposal. We would also need to look at private or non-profit partnerships for funding. (Opportunity zones for example) Fourth, the city should aggressively seek out state and federal dollars for housing and larger development projects. Finally, the city should give the climate commission greater teeth to have a say in land -use decisions and building requirements, especially where high -density projects are concerned. if we work together from the outset, we can achieve greater density and climate mitigation for the community. 148 How would you address current and future flooding issues for Petaluma? Even though the river is finally being dredged, we still run the risk of flood damage from increased development on the river. Instead of rushing to fill those areas, I would request greater study on ways to mitigate potential flood damage. Given the impacts of climate change, we as a city have to start thinking 10-20 years ahead when it comes to potential risks. How would you address current and. future traffic congestion in Petaluma? It would be easy for me to say that the freeway expansion needs to be completed through Petaluma, and that the city needs to add two more cross town connectors. Because I know that the freeway expansion will take more time, and because I don't have a funding solution for the cross- town connectors, I will shift my answer elsewhere. To reduce traffic in the long run, I believe the city needs to seriously look at the proximity of needed services and resource to existing housing. These findings show be incorporated into future development goals to help ensure that people aren't driving across town to get affordable groceries or clothing. The city should also look at making businesses that allow for work from home or telecommuting a focus of the updated general plan. Less commuting opens the doors for greater use of public transit, walk -ways, and biking. Finally, the city should take a look at greater uses of pedestrian bridges and roundabouts to reduce traffic blockages. I'm aware this all requires funding, however a long term plan to upgrade our traffic infrastructure and keep the flow of traffic unimcumbered seems prudent. We are going into a recession, so realistically any number of proposals are limited at this time. 149 What infill policies do you think should be adopted in light of the Urban Growth Boundary passed by the voters? I would imagine that going into a recession there will be a temptation to relax restrictions and build whatever we can to keep up growth and revenue. Our infill land isn't an inexhaustible resource, and the decisions made now will impact the city future long after the coming recession ends. That is why I would stress that aside from new infill policies the city should be vigilant to maintain and improve density standards. Infill proposals: 1) Expand ADU and subdivision capabilities where structurally sound. 2) Look for funding to create a micro loan program for property owners looking to add ADUs on their property to rent at an affordable rate. 3) Encourage the development of cottage housing on smaller lots that would otherwise become single family housing.

Great public art humanizes our environment, adds uniqueness to oui community, and provides a connection from past to future.

The art has belonged to a wide variety of owners and organizations, from individuals, businesses, cultural heritage non -profits organizations with tiny annual budgets to those with multi -million dollar budgets. I love my job as a conservator. Part of my job is teaching what I know to those who are involved with art, whether as artists, as private owners or those in charge of collections held in public trust. I am also experienced with outreach possibilities. I have knowledge of both the Federal and State legislation that governs the rights of artists. have also served in elected, appointed and volunteer positions in a variety of non-profit organizations. Over the years, I have developed my skills and talents including successfully working with the general public and with professionals in related fields (public service employees; architects; contractors; cultural heritage staff) towards the common goal of preserving our cultural heritage. I have a practical point of view, both professional and personally. On a personal note, I have a sense of humor and work well cooperatively with others, whether via committees or on individual projects.

Civic or Charitable Organization to which you have belonged, Position/Office Held, and Dates: I have not held another official position at any civic or charitable organization. 176 What Special Interests/Skills/talents would you bring to this Board, Commission, or Committee? Four years ago I wrote the following. It remains so: I have a background and ongoing interest in art and design with two related degrees, one in liberal arts (with a studio art major), one in industrial design. I taught various design courses for over a decade at California College of the Arts. My liberal arts degree continues to serve me well as an independent product designer. In this position I'm a constant critic of how things of all sorts go together, what works and what doesn't, and the trade-offs in making design decisions in widely varying contexts. Sourcing and ultimately specifying something as subjective and as permanent as public art involves many varied and complex issues similar to those I've dealt with for twenty plus years. And to that I'll now add these skills/talents that have been enhanced and refined by my committee membership. LISTENING / EMPATHIZING: While I've been told professionally and at home that I have a reasonably good ability to listen and empathize, several proposed public art projects that generated avalanches of competing, strident views forced me to dig even deeper. Hearing everyone, no matter his/her background or position, is critical to making informed, sound decisions. It's been a great, ongoing, yet manageable test to stay keenly tuned into individuals and groups while serving the greater community. PROCESS: A good, proven design process drives my professional work. Since every project is different the process must evolve as needed. And one must maintain faith in the process. More than I could have imagined, bringing public art to public spaces benefits tremendously from following -a well -considered, thoughtful process. Should I be reappointed to the PPAC I would work to continually improve the process we employ to do the community's work. My thoughts on process could be summed up as: do your homework to build a good one, follow it faithfully, yet be flexible enough to adjust as circumstances dictate. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): Hamilton College - Liberal Arts, Studio Art- BA 1988 California College of the Arts - Industrial Design - BFA 1997 Special Awards of Recognition Received: n/a 177 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, -including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisor body: Four years ago I wrote: Contributing to the Public Art Committee would give me an opportunity to give back to the city in an area that uses my talents and capabilities. I have an appreciation for public spaces and how we interact with them. I have a reasonably good grasp of some of the issues that surround the effort to solicit, select and install art appropriate to public spaces. But I know that I would learn a great deal from other committee members and look forward to contributing to a strong collective effort. Recent history says the effort has been a challenging one for our city, but I'm up for the challenge. 1 would like to be part of the team that develops the best, most appropriate solutions for spending the community's public art dollars. I'm a supporter of expenditures on public art, public gathering spaces and other amenities to make our city as livable as possible. Yet that support is not blind. Each effort - each art installation in this case - must be well -considered, well -planned, well -maintained and done with a strong eye on the long term value to the community. The same holds true now. I would add that: I'm grateful for the experience of serving as a committee member. Now I feel I can contribute even more. While the PPAC matured as an institution during the past four years, members frequently felt set back by circumstances. While the committee was often limited by ongoing, momentum -sapping turnover with the staff liaison position, we consistently met with a full agenda and moved ahead with a number of worthwhile projects. Some significant projects are incomplete and I would appreciate the opportunity to help realize them to the highest level.

I am a fluent Spanish speaker with strong writing skills, who can translate a diverse assortment of written and verbal communication. I am very organized and committed to serving my community. These traits were fostered when I began working as a student assistant, at Upward Bound (College of the Desert, Palm Desert, CA) at 17 years old, and EOPS/CARE (a joint office) at 19 years old. As a student assistant for these programs I helped students and parents with limited English apply for community college, CSU, and the UC system, along with other educational programs. I did this by translating documents, serving as a translator during meetings, and providing cultural context during difficult situations. This exposure to community service through public assistance programs, fostered a passion and commitment to public service that I carry with me to this day as a civil servant. 1 have served on the city's Youth Commission and I am very proud of the young members who have worked together and presented their interests and concerns to the city council in December 2019. 1 have also helped the youth members spread more awareness regarding SMART train youth opportunities during last spring's earth day. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): San Francisco State University, B.A. in International Relations, May 2014 College of the Desert, A.A. in Political Science, May 2011 Special Awards of Recognition Received: Received SCDP Young Democrat of the Year Award, March 2020 Honored with the Mujer con Cultura Award with Sigma Pi Alpha Sorority, Inc., Spring 2014 Recognized for Excellence in Service in International Business Department in SFSU, Spring 2013 Honored with the International Business Society Member Involvement Award in SFSU, Spring 2012 203 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives ou would be working toward as a member of this advisor body: My interest in both the Recreation, Music, and Parks Commission, and the Youth Commission stems from personal experiences. Before moving to Petaluma, I lived in eleven different communities, most of which were in Mexico. Throughout that time, I repeatedly witnessed the positive impact that parks, open spaces and broader youth engagement can have on a community, especially those lacking most other necessities. During this time, my mom worked for Baja California's Environmental Protection Agency and she would bring my siblings and I to help clean up parks, as part of the agency's monthly programs to engage youth in the community and keep the public commons clean. These experiences taught me the value of green spaces and regular community activities. If I were chosen to serve on the Recreation, Music, and Parks Commission, my focus would be on maintaining and improving Petaluma's beautiful parks, green spaces, and recreational areas for children, elderly groups, and families, I would also like to see the creation of community gardens in each neighborhood so no one goes hungry during crises. My hope and vision is that investmenting in the community's green spaces and recreational activities will lead to future generations taking the time to engage outside. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I was born in San Bernardino, CA, but my mom and I had to move to Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico due to financial and personal issues. Therefore, we moved several times between Mexico and Southern California. I completed most of my education in Mexico until my junior year of high school. My mom allowed me to move to Indio, CA, to live with my maternal grandparents and finish high school there. I experienced the best of two worlds, but was unable to call a city or region my own. I met my husband in 2013 during a college retreat and after many years of visiting Petaluma, I realized that I finally found a wonderful community that made me feel welcome and at home. In summary, these experiences taught me the value of investing in one's community. 204 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing your duties if appointed to thisposition?

Credentialed Special Education Teacher - I have worked in and out of education and youth programs for 20 years, more recently as a full-time teacher at Elsie Allen High School, Miller Creek Middle School, and Tomales Elementary School. My experience in schools is enticing me to get involved with youth outside of schools, with youth in my community. Meeting the needs of my students often puts me in the role of a mentor more than anything because navigating the world today demands so much mroe than the skills taught in schools. As a teacher who still feels very young at heart and as a member of the community, I feel like I would be a strong member of the commission, especially with outreach, and in my ability to understand and represent young perpectives. Athletics - My passion for sports of all kinds gives me a voice in our community to keep programs alive and in the spotlight for Petaluma's youth. Our city currently has many options as far as sports for youth. As the world changes, we need creative voices and proactive leaders to maintain these essential programs as well as to offer additional opportinities to participate in sports and active play. Softball, soccer, baseball, softball, swimming, golf are my specialities. Arts - As true fan of the arts, I dabble in drawing, painting, singing, and improvisational theater. As a member if the commission, I would hope to involve our youth more than ever in opportunities all over the art spectrum. I would look to bring in community members to mentor, speak, advise, train and support youth arts programs. Additionally, more art in the community allows for more self expression and provides an outlet to the chaos of today's times. Family - I am a wife and a mom with a beautiful little family living on the west side. Having this connection allows me to tune into the role of the family, and what an approprate role the community could look like. I want more people to feel as though there is a "village" around them - because we all know that's what it takes.

I would love to work behind the scenes encouraging youth empowerment and development through mentorship, outdoor education and activities, vocational training or exposure, digital citizen training, and social emotional skills as they line up with 21st century skills (such as the 4 C's: collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity). I also hope to work directly with children and young adults if possible, especially working to give them a voice in our community. Finally, today's current events are unprecendented and HUGE change is imminent within our society. Both the health crisis we are facing as well as important issues like racism and social justice are shaking up "normal" life. There is a lot of work to do to help guide our youth through these times. In addition to traditional community programs and support, I would like to be on this commission to ensure that Petaluma responds to its youth with compassion and respect. With every program, I would like to see a degree of social and emotional learning take place, addressing explicit or implicit bias, and perhaps finding more ways to honor the cultures and experiences of all people. I strongly beleive the most potential for widespread social justice in the future lies within the hearts and minds of our youth. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I feel like I am a well-rounded, capable individual that you would appreciate having aboard. I maintain a calm demeanor, and I am not scared to have tough conversations. I am graceful when there are opposing views, open to new ideas, but firm when I believe something to be true.

I am skilled at working with diverse communities, doing outreach and education, facilitating difficult conversations, generating consensus, and creating environments that are welcoming to underrepresented and underserved communities. I am also capable of scrutinizing financial statements, building budgets, maintaining financial controls, and looking after small nonprofits. I also have an undying love of the commons, including civic spaces, public domain art and photography, open source software, and shared resources like community media centers and municipal airports! 258 College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): Santa Rosa Junior College, Philosophy, 2007-2008 San Diego State University, Pre -journalism, 2006-2007 Technology High School, 2002-2006 Special Awards of Recognition Received: N/A Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: I fly out of Petaluma Municipal Airport regularly, and I think my unique skillset and my youth would make me a great addition to the skills and perspectives already present on the Airport Commission. Goals: * A moderately active web presence for Petaluma Muni that serves to engage the community. * Outreach directed at bringing students and underrepresented people into the aviation community. * Collaboration with community organizations outside of the aviation community. * Cultivate more advocates for Petaluma Muni among Petaluma residents. * Maintain airport facilities and balanced budgets. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I've wanted to learn to fly my entire life and started about a year ago. Since, I've accumulated nearly 50 hours in-flight out of Petaluma Muni, become a member of the Petaluma Area Pilot's Association, and started to get acquainted with the aviation community including other members of the Commission. I'm new to the local aviation community, but have friends and family who live in Petaluma, am well acquainted with several Petaluma -specific communities, and have lived in the county most of my life. That is to say: I am invested in Petaluma Muni, known in the community, and can be both a powerful advocate and productive liaison. I spent a number of years serving the local creative community and advocating for community media (2011-2016). 1 took a few years to work on my career and get married (at an airport; SFO, sorry), and am eager to begin investing more time in the place I call home. I may also be well qualified to serve on the Technology Committee, but I wouldn't love it. 259 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing your duties if appointed to thisposition?

I'm a Registergd Civil Engineer with over forty years of experience in Petaluma and elsewhere. I;m keenly aware of the connections between land -use patterns and community values such as housing affordability, mobility options, greenhouse gas reductions, and municipal finances. In my semi -retirement, I've chosen to become active in these fields, through membership and participation in national organizations and through local organizations that I've helped found. This background will be brought forward to any City body to which I might be appointed. I've also written extensively, on my own blog and as a free-lance writer for the Petaluma Argus Courier, on land -use concerns that often touch upon transit. I spoke at the StrongTowns national conference about the integration of local mobility options with regional rail in Petaluma. Earlier this year, I coordinated event logistics and am overseeing a summary of conclusions for the Congress of the New Urbanism California Climate Adaptation Council. Most recently, I've embarked on a study of the issues involved in the implementation of VMT as a CEQA standard so that I can better fill my role on the Petaluma VMT Technical Assistance Committee.

I have a passion for land -use practices that will align cities for success in the 21st century. I want to bring that passion to bear on making Petaluma the best place possible. If reappointed to the Transit Advisory Committee, I'd work to find the best ways to serve the segments of the public that rely on transit, fixed -route and paratransit, to seek out opportunities to entice people with multiple options to choose the bus, to promote the integration of SMART rail with Petaluma Transit routes in hopes of encouraging more rail ridership, and to encourage the integration of land use and transit. is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your In my roles with Petaluma Urban Chat, Know Before You Grow, and the Urban Community Partnership, along with my history of blogging on land -use issues, I've taken and likely will take positions that may result in a perceived inability to judge an issue fairly. To the extent that those concerns arise, IT recuse myself. Also, as noted above, I'd be willing to serve on another committee if there are insufficient applicants. Furthermore, I'd be willing for an appointment to be deemed interim until new applicants can be found.

During both high school and college, I competed in several team robotics competitions. These competitions ended up taking me all over the state and country, and taught me the value of teamwork, project management, quality control, and problem solving through trial and error. Throughout this period of time, I was also sent to many middle schools and high schools in the county to impress upon students the value of STEM. Though the robot usually stole the presentative, these experiences gave me an early education in how to engage people on subject matters that might otherwise seem opaque or disconnected from everyday life. And even though I ultimately decided to pursue a life of public service, I've carried these lessons to each endeavor that I have undertaken. I am committed to serving my community, and passionate about the power of civic engagement to improve people's lives. This is a belief that I have carried with me throughout my community and political work, and government work. In my last job, I learned how to work with people and communities in crisis, and navigate bureaucracies to help them resolve their issues. In my current role I am working with systems in crisis, and learning how to use policy and communications to move intractable issues.

But beyond that, I am a renter and young working professional who intends to raise a family here. And for the last ten years, I have watched as the housing crisis has increasingly driven up costs and reduced available units in Petaluma. An issue that was made that much more dire by the 2017 wildfires. If I received the honor of being elected by the council, my objective would be to evaluate proposed projects, land use and zoning with an understanding that these decisions have impacts on the social and economic equity of the city, and can have serious ramifications to public health and long term outcomes. Fruthermore, my other objective would also be to work off the foundations already laid out in the general plan and site specific plans to promote infill density of mixed use spaces, while ideally increasing the height of higher density projects. These interests and goals align with my reasons for serving on the Transit Adisory Committee. I am staunch supporter of transit -oriented development and spent the first half of my professional career using public transportation to get across the Bay Area. Healthy and affordable public transportation has a direct impact on the upward mobility of our workforce, and should have a direct impact on land use positions. To this end, it has been an honor to serve on the Transit Advisory Committee this past year. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? In my current role I handle a great deal of emergency communication, and track legislation on housing, and wildfire prevention and recovery. 270 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in your duties if appointed to thisposition? -performing No If so, please state name of Organization/Employer: City policy directs all appointed advisory body members not to vote on matters where there exists a conflict of interest.

Lastly, working for Santa Rosa Junior College I have heard from students who depend on public transit in Petaluma, and would bring a unique and informed perspective.

It is possible that this experience could directly apply to projects the Tree Advisory Commission will pursue. Now that Petaluma is coping with the added financial burdens imposed by the coronavirus, it may be necessary to look for outside funding for tree -related projects, After leaving KQED, I founded The Natural Gardening Company (TNGC), the nation's oldest certified organic nursery, As owner of TNGC, I oversaw and implemented many aspects of the businesses operations: marketing, budgeting, accounting, long-range planning, plant production, press relations, and staff supervision. I know how to formulate and execute a plan, and while trees were not part of our inventory, I have a broad overview of organic plant production and horticulture.

Having a degree in Communications, and several years of retail customer service experience, allows me to connect with many different sectors of the City's populace. This would aid in my ability to understand and balance the needs and desires of both the City and its citizens as it pertains to issues surrounding trees. I have an extensive marketing background from both advertising agency account management as well as product management for global consumer brands. I am also a very creative individual, with unique ideas on how to communicate messages. For example, this past Earth Day, despite the overarching pandemic of COVID-19, 1 felt strongly about the need to still commemorate the occasion's 50th Anniversary. Involving my children in the effort, we set about to create an artistic front yard installation that both drew attention to the moment in history, as well as facilitated a call to action for passersby. From a table in our driveway, we offered free live oak tree starts my children had salvaged from our side yard as well as Crape Myrtle seedlings (both approved City trees), along with planting instructions, to encourage people to take an active role in "being an Earth Life Saver." We continued this messaging and offer on Arbor Day just a few days later and were thrilled to see that all 18 trees found new homes within the community. This creative effort was recognized in "The Buzz" section of the Petaluma Argus-Courier the following week(https://www.petaluma360.com/entertainment/10926285-181/the-buzz-saving-the-earth? sba=AAS). I also helped spread the word by tagging photos of our work to a global effort to celebrate Earth Day, ##OurPlanetOurHome, via my Instagram account. In addition, I communicated with Mary DeMocker, author of, "The Parents' Guide to Climate Revolution," who helped inspire my project, which resulted in her sharing our message to global groups with even greater visibility, such as Our Kids Climate. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): University of Washington, Bachelor of Arts in Communications, 1992-1996 Special Awards of Recognition Received: Graduated University of Washington, B.A., Summa cum Laude 285 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory body: I would like to become a member of the Tree Advisory Committee as I see it serving an increasingly important role for the City of Petaluma as we move forward in a state of climate crisis. It is generally known that carbon sequestration is critical in our attempt to halt, if not reverse, the negative effects our current lifestyle is having on Earth's environment. One of the simplest ways to aid in this process is to plant more trees ... this would be my primary goal in joining the advisory board. I would also like to have a greater understanding of the protections that exist for our heritage trees, as well as the guidelines set forth for tree planting and/or removal in both public and private space within the City of Petaluma, with the objective of helping to educate our citizens in this regard. Additionally, I would like to take an active role in partnering with various organizations and seek out grant funding in order to help facilitate the implementation of the City's tree initiatives. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? My desire to combat the climate crisis has been slowly re-emerging as I find myself with ever more time and bandwidth to turn my attentions to this issue. I have long considered myself someone who prioritizes the environment, but any significant actions were put on the back burner as I took on the role of full time parent just over 14 years ago. As my three children have grown, so has my desire to protect and preserve the Earth they will inhabit, as well as my awareness of the climate challenges we increasingly face. In recent years, I've found myself angered each time I noticed another tree missing and more passionate about doing something about it. This past February, I attended a talk here in Petaluma given by Mary DeMocker, the author of the book, "The Parents' Guide to Climate Revolution." Her informative and inspiring presentation filled me with ideas that I wanted to implement, organizations I wanted to join, and great nuggets of information on how, as a busy parent of three children, to re-engage in the climate revolution. As one small step, I joined the Arbor Day Foundation this spring and turned its free seedlings to new members into a community offering as a way others too could take a part in helping preserve our planet. I view my application to be a part of the City's Tree Advisory Committee as yet another step in my efforts to make positive change for Petaluma's environment. 286 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing our duties if appointed to thisposition? No. My husband, Jason Beatty, is the current Director of Public Works for the City of Petaluma; however, we have conferred with the City Attorney who sees no conflict of interest.

As a small business owner in San Francisco I was an early participator in the first local urban planting program for the neighborhood surrounding my former business in an industrial part of town. I organized and coordinated the planting of dozens of trees on our street. Years later, as a manufacturer of products for the garden center industry, I traveled extensively around the country visiting garden center owners and grower industry experts. During those years I acquired a wide range of knowledge about the horticutural and growing industries. Both are complicated industries often held hostage to demanding weather changes. In my first year of retirement, I planted 12 new trees at our Petaluma home. I am a strong supporter of our local, regional and national parks. I understand the importance trees play in carbon sequestration as well as providing peaceful places to be. I understand the importance trees will play in Petaluma as we combat climate change.

Credentialed Special Education Teacher - I have worked in and out of education and youth programs for 20 years, more recently as a full-time teacher at Elsie Allen High School, Miller Creek Middle School, and Tomales Elementary School. My experience in schools is enticing me to get involved with youth outside of schools, with youth in my community. Meeting the needs of my students often puts me in the role of a mentor more than anything because navigating the world today demands so much mroe than the skills taught in schools. As a teacher who still feels very young at heart and as a member of the community, I feel like I would be a strong member of the commission, especially with outreach, and in my ability to understand and represent young perpectives. Athletics - My passion for sports of all kinds gives me a voice in our community to keep programs alive and in the spotlight for Petaluma's youth. Our city currently has many options as far as sports for youth. As the world changes, we need creative voices and proactive leaders to maintain these essential programs as well as to offer additional opportinities to participate in sports and active play. Softball, soccer, baseball, softball, swimming, golf are my specialities. Arts - As true fan of the arts, I dabble in drawing, painting, singing, and improvisational theater. As a member if the commission, I would hope to involve our youth more than ever in opportunities all over the art spectrum. I would look to bring in community members to mentor, speak, advise, train and support youth arts programs. Additionally, more art in the community allows for more self expression and provides an outlet to the chaos of today's times. Family - I am a wife and a mom with a beautiful little family living on the west side. Having this connection allows me to tune into the role of the family, and what an approprate role the community could look like. I want more people to feel as though there is a "village" around them - because we all know that's what it takes.

I would love to work behind the scenes encouraging youth empowerment and development through mentorship, outdoor education and activities, vocational training or exposure, digital citizen training, and social emotional skills as they line up with 21st century skills (such as the 4 C's: collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity). I also hope to work directly with children and young adults if possible, especially working to give them a voice in our community. Finally, today's current events are unprecendented and HUGE change is imminent within our society. Both the health crisis we are facing as well as important issues like racism and social justice are shaking up "normal' life. There is a lot of work to do to help guide our youth through these times. In addition to traditional community programs and support, I would like to be on this commission to ensure that Petaluma responds to its youth with compassion and respect. With every program, I would like to see a degree of social and emotional learning take place, addressing explicit or implicit bias, and perhaps finding more ways to honor the cultures and experiences of all people. I strongly beleive the most potential for widespread social justice in the future lies within the hearts and minds of our youth. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I feel like I am a well-rounded, capable individual that you would appreciate having aboard. I maintain a calm demeanor, and I am not scared to have tough conversations. I am graceful when there are opposing views, open to new ideas, but firm when I believe something to be true.

I believe walking alongside each individual, rather than pulling them forward, or pushing them ahead, is the best approach. Using an intersectional fens, I am able to establish lasting relationships with young people because it innately harnesses empathy and understanding of all levels of their identities. It is my goal for them to see their backgrounds as a foundation on which to build their futures, rather than as barriers to success. I believe every young person and member of this commission has certain abilities that they embody.

I am a fluent Spanish speaker with strong writing skills, who can translate a diverse assortment of written and verbal communication. I am very organized and committed to serving my community. These traits were fostered when I began working as a student assistant, at Upward Bound (College of the Desert, Palm Desert, CA) at 17 years old, and EOPS/CARE (a joint office) at 19 years old. As a student assistant for these programs I helped students and parents with limited English apply for community college, CSU, and the UC system, along with other educational programs. I did this by translating documents, serving as a translator during meetings, and providing cultural context during difficult situations. This exposure to community service through public assistance programs, fostered a passion and commitment to public service that I carry with me to this day as a civil servant. I have served on the city's Youth Commission and I am very proud of the young members who have worked together and presented their interests and concerns to the city council in December 2019. 1 have also helped the youth members spread more awareness regarding SMART train youth opportunities during last spring's earth day. College, Professional, Vocational Schools Attended (Major Subject, Dates, Degree/Date): San Francisco State University, B.A. in International Relations, May 2014 College of the Desert, A.A. in Political Science, May 2011 Special Awards of Recognition Received: Received SCDP Young Democrat of the Year Award, March 2020 Honored with the Mujer con Cultura Award with Sigma Pi Alpha Sorority, Inc., Spring 2014 Recognized for Excellence in Service in International Business Department in SFSU, Spring 2013 Honored with the International Business Society Member Involvement Award in SFSU, Spring 2012 339 Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board, Commission, or Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this adviso body: My interest in both the Recreation, Music, and Parks Commission, and the Youth Commission stems from personal experiences. Before moving to Petaluma, I lived in eleven different communities, most of which were in Mexico. Throughout that time, I repeatedly witnessed the positive impact that parks, open spaces and broader youth engagement can have on a community, especially those lacking most other necessities. During this time, my mom worked for Baja California's Environmental Protection Agency and she would bring my siblings and I to help clean up parks, as part of the agency's monthly programs to engage youth in the community and keep the public commons clean. These experiences taught me the value of green spaces and regular community activities. If I were chosen to serve on the Recreation, Music, and Parks Commission, my focus would be on maintaining and improving Petaluma's beautiful parks, green spaces, and recreational areas for children, elderly groups, and families. I would also like to see the creation of community gardens in each neighborhood so no one goes hungry during crises. My. hope and vision is that investmenting in the community's green spaces and recreational activities will lead to future generations taking the time to engage outside. Is there any other information that you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application? I was born in San Bernardino, CA, but my mom and I had to move to Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico due to financial and personal issues. Therefore, we moved several times between Mexico and Southern California. I completed most of my education in Mexico until my junior year of high school. My mom allowed me to move to Indio, CA, to live with my maternal grandparents and finish high school there. I experienced the best of two worlds, but was unable to call a city or region my own. I met my husband in 2013 during a college retreat and after many years of visiting Petaluma, I realized that I finally found a wonderful community that made me feel welcome and at home. In summary, these experiences taught me the value of investing in one's community. 340 Are you associated with any Organization/Employer that might be deemed a conflict of interest in performing our duties if appointed to thisposition?
