I’ve spent my entire life in the Twin Cities area. I grev; up <br />Woodbury on a farm. I witnessed Woodbury grow from 4,000 to over 45,000 currently. I have observed <br />their methods of park and trail planning. My father sold Woodbury larid for a park, so I am familiar with land <br />acquisition practices. I have also lived in Maplewood, Minneapolis, Minnetonka and Plymouth. <br />I enjoy the outdoors. I am an active user of trails and parks. I bike, walk, snowmobile, boat and fish. <br />The construction of Highway 12. potential railway to trail conversion, and the expected growth in population <br />make this a critical time for parks. <br />I understand this appointment may be discussed at a public meeting. <br />4 <br />( <br />Signature Date
