�brch 21, 1988 Dear Mr. Bernhardson, I am very interested in being considered for the position on the Orono Planning Commission created by the resignii-�g of. Paul Taylor. I think the next three to five years are critical for an organ- ized development of Orono. Orono has always had very high standards for growth and I think, an attitude of "grow slowly". I happcn to agree. I would like to see Orono maintain a rural flavor, yet know that growth is inevitable. With the Highway 12/394 completion looming in the near future, the influx of people into the con rn nity is already being felt. I would like to see a vory controlled growth to keep the standard of living and the quality of life high. I grew up in Deephaven, moved out to Salt Lake City to attend the University of Utah. After graduating with a B.S. in Recreational Therapy, I became the Directci of Adolescent Recreational Therapy at LIDS Hospital. My husband and I moved back to Minnesota in November 1981 and purchased our house in Webber hills in August of 1982. At that time I was working for Merrill Lynch Realty/Wrnet in Wayzata. For the past few years I hive been raising two children and working part time with Betty Jo Ogien ac the Five Swans. I have also been a block worker for the American Heart Association for the past two years. I think the environment that we live in is going to play an ever increasing role in our lives. I know from personal and career experiences that the home/neighborhood environment is critical to a balanced life. I would like to work hard at keeping Orono a fabulous community to live and raise my children in. Orono has a reputation for an excellent quality of living and I would be honored to help maintain this by serving on the Orono Planning Commission. T'ronk you for your tinx-, if there are any questions please call m- Sincerely, `-ira Moos a r� o I -A) �-I �� o A� �')A� Z ,�-►-�
