Special Qualifications Particularly Appropriate for a Planning Commissioner
I was most recently one of nine candidates who applied for the vacated council seat for District
4. Although not appointed, I believe I firmly established my desire and qualifications to serve the
city in that capacity. I will one day run and be elected to the Newport Beach City Council. Being
appointed to the Planning Commission will provide me with greater insight into land -use issues
which will ultimately make me a more effective Councilman when I am elected. For the past 10
years, I have demonstrated my interest in civic leadership and commitment to the City of
Newport Beach through a number of experiences.
I currently hold a seat on the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. I was appointed when
an unexpected vacancy occurred as a result of Commissioner Steven Rosanky's appointment to
the Council. Since my appointment to the Commission, we have made two significant
recommendations to the Council, most recently prohibiting smoking on the beach and earlier the
park patrol. I have also represented the Commission at the 2004 Arbor Day Celebration at
Lincoln Middle School and most recently the 2004 Sunday Fun Day at the Park. I also serve on
the Park Development Committee. This committee makes recommendations to the Commission
as a whole and city staff on land acquisition and park construction. Most recently the Committee
has made help prioritize the development of Sunset Ridge, Newport Ridge and Upper Bay View
parks.
Also, I am currently serving on the Executive Planning Committee of the Corona del Mar
Centennial Celebration. This committee serves the Board of Directors of the Corona del Mar
Centennial Foundation. I am the Special Events Committee Chair. Our committee is charged
with the Corona del Mar Beach Party and Expo to be held on the weekend of October 16`h and
17`h. Those activities include a number of first for Newport Beach, a live concert at Corona del
Mar State Beach, a vintage boat parade and a fireworks display over the mouth of the harbor.
Since 1999, I have been a resident member of the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce. I
serve on the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce Governmental Affairs Committee. The
committee is made up of business leaders as well as representatives of elected officials and state
agencies. The committee routinely invites speakers who are community leaders or activists to
speak on a wide variety of issues which may affect the business climate in the Newport Beach
Area. The committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors as to official positions
the Chamber should take on various city, county and statewide issues.
I am the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Leadership Tomorrow serving my second term in
that capacity. Leadership Tomorrow is a program designed to help people become more engaged
their communities. Many of our graduates become volunteers in civic organizations, attain
appointments to Boards or Commissions and even run for elected office. I was a member of the
Class of 1999 in Leadership Tomorrow and was asked to serve on the Board of Directors upon
graduation. Several current Council members and Commissioners are graduates of our program
in Costa Mesa, Irvine and Newport Beach including Mr. Rosansky and Mr. Adams.
I have been an Associate with the Upper Back Bay Naturalist and Friends since 2003. In this
capacity I served as a volunteer in the Peter and Mary Muth Interpretive Center from 2003 to
2004. The role included acting as an advocate for issues directing affecting Upper Newport Bay,
answering visitor's questions about the ecology of the region and lea_ ding school groups through
the displays at the Center.
I served on the Aviation Committee for District 2 in the city of Newport Beach from 1998 -2003.
I was named to the alternate seat by Council member Jan Debay. During this time El Toro
Marine Base remained a viable option for an international airport in Orange County. The
Committee made many formal recommendations to the Council during the campaign against
Measure "S" strategy and on issues surrounding the extension of the settlement agreement for
flights leaving John Wayne airport during those turbulent times. Part of my role was to keep
citizens in District 2 abreast of the airport debate. In addition, I worked in concert with the
Airport Working Group on the noise level test conducted in 1998 at the base as well as actively
campaigning against Measure "S ".
During the summer of 1999 I was a member of the second graduating class of the Newport
Beach Citizen's Police academy. Each class elects a leader to represent it and to deliver the
graduation address and I was elected to that honor.
I have been a volunteer at the Newport Beach Toshiba Champions Tour event at the Newport
Beach Country Club since its inception in 1994. During this time I have participated on a
number of committees including hospitality, fairway marshal and scoring.
Also, I have been a volunteer at the Taste of Newport Beach sponsored by the Newport Beach
Chamber of Commerce, since 2002.
Respectfully submitted,
Timothy Charles Brown
