P (eA -sue S41, 414AC1A ed Mis_I \Users\Clh\3hersd\ Hoards, Commissions, Committee * \Miseenaneoue\Application Date • Desire to serve as Planning Commissioner During my business career I have worked for several large, medium, and small Banks. I spent 4 years with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as a Senior Commercial and Real Estate credit specialist, and 6 years with Ticor Title Insurance Company as their Vice President National Credit Manager. In all of these capacities, I worked with and developed an understanding of Land Use issues. Including Ownership issues, water rights, toxic regulations, Zoning requirements, tract maps, developer agreements, city, state, local building standards and requirements, and many more. I have negotiated, documented, and monitored many adversarial real estate agreements. I have 9 years of community service in Newport Beach as a volunteer. Most recently, I am the chairman of EQAC, a board member of EDC and Little Balboa Property Owners Association. In these capacities, I have had the opportunity to work with staff and applicants on land use issues which affect the quality of life in Newport Beach. Some of the major issues include The Bonita Village Annexation, Newport Center Expansion, Airport Areas, General Plan • Amendment, the Dunes hotel construction, Down Coast Annexation, and Traffic Phasing Ordinance. As a Banker and business man, I have had many occasions to make difficult decisions based on the application of facts, policy and the requirements of law and not emotions. I believe I can bring a balance to the Commission and represent the higher good of Newport Beach. •
