HAWKINS Statement of Interest Attachment 3 The City of Newport Beach (the "City ") has become a major metropolitan area with the attendant exciting challenges and extensive resources. In addition, the City has special assets and opportunities due to the City's unique community, location and natural resources. Since my appointment to the EQAC in January 1999,1 have learned much of these challenges. I welcome the opportunity to serve on the Planning Commission and to continue to assist the City, itsresidents and its Council in developing rewarding solutions to these challenges including land use issues, developing its resources to the fullest, and enhancing our quality of life now and in the next century. Many significant challenges await us; the following are some of the most important, First, transportation issues raise significant hurdles for the City. Most significantly, the City must rhake every effort to prevent the further expansion of John Wayne Airport. Perhaps the proposed settlement agreement will solve this problem, however, the City may need to review its land use options in and around John Wayne Airport. Although the development of a international airport facility at El Toro may no longer be feasible, the City should investigate other options and alternatives for El Toro including some sort of joint use Airport and park facility. I have experience in dealing with such issues including advising the City of Orange in mitigating the expansion of the Theo Lacy Jail and related CEQA issues. I believe that this experience would be extremely beneficial in developing a plan to accomplish these airport goals. Second, the City's water resources also present a significant challenge. The City must make every effort to preserve its water resources including the water quality of the Back Bay and the area beaches. The City must act to prevent the discharge of effluent into the area witbout a full study of all potential adverse consequences. Again, I have experience in water resources and water quality. I have represented various districts and corporations in dealing with their water quality problems. Third, the City faces the challenge of sustainable growth. As the City begins the process to update its General Plan., it is important that the process be overly inclusive: all interested parties and groups should participate and see their participation bring results in the process, We cannot allow single interest groups dictate the result: the various interest groups must come together to develop a plan which is acceptable to all sides. Fourth, the Greenlight initiative is now the law for the City. We must work with each other and with City residents to continue to improve our lovely City while at the same time recognizing the will of the voters. Our General Plan process may move this process far and, once again, bring our City and its residents together. Finally, other challenges face the City: the development of Banning Ranch, infrastructure improvements on the Balboa peninsula; and other important issues. As a small business owner, a homeowner, a board member of a homeowner's association in the area and a member of the Chamber of Commerce, I have worked hard to address building maintenance and related problems and to address and cure significant impacts upon our quality of life. All of this presents a tremendous opportunity for the City Through the EQAC, l have participated in this process: I look forward to the opportunity to contribute as a member of the Planning Commission.

Henn 1004 West Oceanfront Newport Beach, 92661 Supplemental Statement as to why I wish to serve on the Planning Commission I have owned a home on Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach for over 10 years and I am proud and fortunate that all three of my children also live on the Peninsula or its environs. Over this period, I have grown to love and appreciate our wonderful surroundings with the Ocean and the Bay, and intend to live here through retirement. I have become keenly aware of the opportunities and need to preserve and enhance the beauty and desirability of the area. I wish to volunteer my time and experience toward maximizing those opportunities for the benefit of the Peninsula area, as well as Newport Beach as a whole. I believe that in view of my background, the Planning Commission would be a good place to begin my involvement in public service. I have had a long and successful career as a senior administrative and financial officer of publicly held companies headquartered in Southern California, both large and small. Over this time, I have developed strong problem solving skills in dealing with a wide variety of complex issues. My general approach to problem solving is to listen carefully to all sides, study the issues and then build consensus for a practical solution. This approach should serve me well as a participant in the governmental process. During my tenure as Chief Financial Officer of the large homebuilder, KBHome, I was a key decision maker on hundreds of homebuilding projects in California, including many in Orange County. This experience gave me excellent knowledge of the land planning process and issues, and the need to balance competing priorities in the community. I have recently changed careers to the field of private financial management, and now have the time and flexibility to be an effective and responsible member of the Planning Commission. I am sensitive to the needs to preserve the highly desirable residential character of Balboa Peninsula and Newport :Beach, and to maintain and enhance the quality of life in our community. At the same time, I also know we need to balance those needs with maintaining and enhancing the economic viability of the City through thoughtful development and redevelopment that is consistent with the General Plan and the best economic interests of this great City of Newport Beach. I would be honored to be considered for an appointment to the Planning Commission. 1011104 999925 APPLICATION FOR APPOINTIVE POSTTION FOR OFFICE USE ONLY Residence District No. Verified by 0- -�' CITY OF NEWPORT = BEACH 3300 Newport Boulevard Newport Beach, CA 92663 CrfY CLERK - 949 - 644 -3005 FAX - 949 -644 -3039 [RECTIONS: A separate application is required for each appointive position for which you apply.

I also advised on design issues for j the Balboa Peninsula Redevelopment and the Balboa Peninsula Signage Program and Guidelines. As President of the 9,000 member American Institute of Architects, California Council, I represented my profession on legislative issues in Sacramento; lead design and urban planning initiatives; and promoted pragmatic design solutions throughout the state to improve the built environment in order to create more livable communities. My interests are varied, which helps to broaden my appreciation for the many views of the Newport Beach residents. I am a business owner and employer, a boat owner, a Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Paddler and an active board member of Orange County Coastkeeper. Good planning, good design, and a healthy environment are necessities for a successful economy and a thriving community. I hope to help Newport Beach continue to excel in each of these areas. Our city is like no other. I have seen continuous change ever since I attended Ensign Jr. High and Newport Harbor High.
