Include any special qualifications you have which are particularly appropriate to the position for which you are applying. I would like to serve on the Newport Beach Citizens' Bicycle Safety Committee because I feel that I can have an impact on improving the safety of cyclists in our city. Many people don't bike because of their fear of riding on the road, and if we can educate both drivers and cyclists about how to share the road safely, we can boost the popularity of recreational cycling and bike commuting, with the benefits of improving health, saving fuel, and decreasing auto emissions. I am safety conscious and understand the cyclists, drivers' and homeowners'viewpoints. In my profession I manage risk by assessing the risks, looking atthe costs of controlling those risks, and finding the right balance to mitigate risk without spending a lot of money. Through my USC Executive MBA I understand the financial aspects of the proposed projects - and I know that every good project idea can't be funded. I work well on collaborative teams, and have experience presenting to all levels of education and background. I have planned and managed major community events. I am an effective public speaker, networker and collaborator. [See word document.] I certify that all statements made on this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

I am a member of the Bicycle Club of Irvine, the Trail Angels, and the Team in Training Cycling Alumni (we fundraise for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society). I participate in several century rides (100 miles) each year. When I worked in Irvine I bike commuted. I ride from 1 to 4 times a week, sometimes over 100 miles per week on the roads and bike paths. I have bicycled from San Francisco to Los Angeles on a fund raising ride for the Arthritis Foundation. I've rented bikes and ridden in other US and European cities. Two friends of mine have died while cycling - one was hit by a car, one had a heart attack, and several of my friends have been hit by vehicles while cycling. These accidents could have been avoided, and I would like to use my talents and abilities towards improving bicycle safety. There are several aspects to improving safety. Cyclist safety education — targeted at both adults and children, and varying levels of cyclist Driver safety education — should particularly be targeted at residents in the neighborhoods that attract cyclists (Spyglass, Newport Coast, Back Bay, Corona del Mar, Balboa Peninsula), perhaps through home owner association newsletters, utility bills, or training events in their community clubhouses Road signage, painting of bike lanes and /or sharrows, perhaps changing traffic lights and crosswalks Enabling community input about risky spots and road hazards Collaborate with neighboring cities, and other bike - friendly cities to learn what worked and what hasn't worked, to allow us to spend our resources wisely If promoting cycling is also within the scope of this committee, I would be an asset with experience in planning community events. A lot could be accomplished for free using social media such as YouTube, Twitter, Foursquare, Yelp, MapMyRide, Facebook, Google Maps, and I am very knowledgeable about this. I have been a homeowner in Newport Beach for 21 years, and feel I can contribute a great deal to the Citizens' Bicycle Safety Committee.

I would like to serve on the Citizens Bicycle Safety Committee for three key reasons. First and foremost, I am a cyclist and runner who spends nearly every morning on the City's streets and paths. This gives me a helpful perspective on what works, and what doesn't. Second, my professional experience as a land use attorney will inform my advice with hands on, practical experience. 1 know what improvements are realistic, and what improvements are simply beyond the City's capacity to implement. Finally, I served on the City's Bicycle Safety Task force in 2009 -2010 and helped formulate the recommendations that were eventually approved by the City Council. Now, I would like to see the City implement some of these recommendations. Thank you for your consideration.

Include any special qualifications you have which are particularly appropriate to the position for which you are applying. I have a particular interest in cycling. I am bicycle racer, commuter, and social rider. I pretty much ride my bike most days of the year and manage a cycling club that has members ranging in age from 14 years to 70 years. I live in Newport City and know the roads very well. I have two retail bicycle stores, one in Newport Beach, and one in Irvine on the campus of the University of California, Irvine. The UCI store was our first location and I have been actively involved with the University in making the place more bicycle friendly and helping develop a bike plan for the coming years. I served on the recent Task Force on Bicycle Safety and found that I enjoyed being able to pass on some of my experience. I was a law enforcement officer for 17 years. I have also been a bicycle rider for even longer. I believe that my experiences in both of these careers would be a benefit to the committee. I believe that putting in signs and marking lanes on the road is only a small step in making the city bicycle friendly. There needs to be driver, bicycle, and pedestrian education. There needs to be outreach with students to teach them bicycle safety. There needs to be liaison with City Police and local bicycle groups /clubs. This is just the start.
