Please return this completed form to the City Secretary's Office, Town Hall, 1400 Main Street,
Suite 270, Southlake, Texas 76092, fax to (897) 748-8270, or email address:

Current and/or previous board, commission, or committee experience in
the City of Southlak,e.
During the 13 years I have lived in Southlake, I have been a member of the Parks Board
and/or SPDC. This is an area that really interest me and now that my oldest child is in
college I feel I have more time to dedicate time to this Board where as I have not had that
time in the past.
Reason(s) for desiring to serve on this board, commission, or committee,
and your opinion as to the purpose, goals and duties of same:
I feel that the duties are to attend all meetings and be actively involved in what the Packs
& Recreation department is doing. The purpose is to make sure that all citizens have their
needs and wants available to them. Of course this takes money and time, but the City of
Southlake Parks and Recreation department have come a long ways since I have first.
moved here. The purpose is also to follow the CIP and to make sure that projects that are
on the CIP fit into the needs of the citizens of Southlake.
My goals and the reason I would like to be back on the Parks board are the following
I would love to see a joint use program with the Parks and Recreation department, Nature
Center and Keep Southlake Beautiful on making Southlake a bluebonnet/Indian
Paintbrush city. This will take some time and money, but I think it would be a great
community effort to start with our highways and then filter into the neighborhoods of
having our state flower (and other wild flowers) be planted all over the city. When spring
comes, and people see these flowers all over Southlake, it will make them want to come
take pictures and then go to our wonderN restaurants and shopping areas in town. It will
be another way to make Southlake a destination.
The other goal would be to work on educating the general public on recycling. I need to
better understand the economics of recycling for the city. The City of Southlake spends a
lot of money for our citizens to have recycling but when I walk my neighborhood I see
many trashcans with recyclable goods in the trashcan and not the recycling bin. Here
again, I believe this will be a joint. use project with certain departments in the city, but I
believe that we can educate our citizens to help with cutting down our carbon footprint.
Qualifcations and experience that would assist you in serving in this
position:
I have been actively involved in this community for the past 13 years and I understand
how the city programs work and /know many of the people that are involved in these
programs. Before I had children, I ran.a S million dollar business out of the apparel mart
in Dallas. I also have been very activOn the schools by being on various boards along
with my experience that I have had ort the Parks Board and SPDC. At this j tincture in life,
I bring history to the Parks Board, where we have been and hopefully
going. where we will be
Do you understand and agree that your regular attendance and active
support are required as an appointee and that noncompliance could
result in removal from that board?
Yes, I take this position very seriously and several years ago when there was an
unexpected vacancy I was approached by a City council member to see if I was
interested at the time of being appointed back on the Parks Board and although I was very
interested I knew that I could not commit due to the time co
and being at a school so far away. M mmitment of my oldest son
have more free time. Y youngest son is in the Carroll school district and I
Additional information or comments:
I believe that I have the experience, knowledge and work ethic, I also believe it is
important to talk to each of you to see the direction you would like to see the raft go in.
We have had the recreation center on the CIP for many years
back due to some other projects, it seems Korn what I am ma and it kept getting pined
