r. <br />irf/miKetn' 5 <br />CITY OF <br />SHOREWOOD <br />5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD • SHOREWOOD. MINNESOTA 55331 • (612) 474-3236 <br />June 19, 1989 <br />Mayor James Grabek <br />Mayor of Orono <br />Box 66, Crystal Bay <br />Orono, MN 55323 <br />ii: <br />2 0 !PS9 <br />JU.I <br />RE; Appoincmenc to the Regional Transit Board <br />I would like to be nominated for the vacancy on the Regional Tran­ <br />sit Board. I believe my approach would assure that all aspects of <br />transportation planning are considered when working for solutions <br />to Regional transportation issues. <br />I have been active in transportation issues, including the RTB <br />Chairman's Advisory Board, the AI-IM Transportation Committee, the <br />Hennepin County Light Rail Advisory Committee, and as a member <br />of the Shorewood City Council since 1976. <br />I have served on the City Council since 1976 - and as Mayor since <br />January 1, 1989. <br />I served on the Light Rail Advisory Committee for the S.W. Area <br />since 1976. <br />I have been on the Board of Directors of the AMM and served on the <br />Revenue and Transportation and Metropolitan Issues committees. <br />I have served on numerous League of Cities committees, was a founder <br />and President of the Women in Government, served on the first Board <br />of the Women Elected Officials of Minnesota, and a Metropolitan Council <br />committee. <br />I believe the RTB ought to be the "transportation" advisory board <br />and take all modes of transportation and all means of dealing with <br />transportation problems into account. My experience Ln highway, <br />light rail, transit and transportation planning issues would be of <br />great benefit to the Board. I seek coordination of transportation - <br />not duplication. <br />A Rjtidentia! Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore
