Are you presently serving on a City board or commission? ❑ Yes XNo If so, which one? Why do you want to become a member of this particular board or commission? There is a strong need for affordable housing in any area. The City of Fort Collins has done a great iob in providing its citizens with affordable units. Additionally, the city has a great first time homebuver program I would like to help in the education surrounding this proce89tis application was submitted online on: Aug-14-2006 03:27 PM Briefly explain what you believe are the three most important issues facing this board or commission, and how do you believe this board or commission should address each issue? t) Unit marketability/resale.With fluctuating real estate trends, it can be difficult to determine how marketable any given unit will be in the future. However,there seems to be a problem surrounding the affordable units. I have talked to many owners who are attempting to sell and are faced with brining money to the table in order to close.Solution:At minimum, better education for the buyers so they can plan to allow several months for the sale of a unit. Preferably, the establishemnt of a program that helps better link potential users to current sellers. p) Negative views/associations with affordable housing.It seems as though many view affordable housing as having negative influences on communities. Most do not realize that these people may have college loan debt medical bills,or other commitments which may reduce their potential for higher housing payments.Solution: analysis and presentation of the demographics of the users of affordable housing units. Also in conjunction with the above issue, education of the benefits of home ownership and the pros and cons of different financing methods. 3) Getting developers to build affordable units.Given the potential problems surrounding buyer qualification, unit marketability, etc., it can be difficult to motivate developers to build affordable units.Solution: incentives such as allowing for flexibility with design codes in leiu of construction of a predetermined number of units and other incentives may work. Conversely, and more controversially, inclusionary zoning such as that utilized by in the Boulder. CO area can provide for a predetermined amount of affordable housing.

Why do you want to become a member of this particular board or commission? I want to become actively involved in bettering the Fort Collins community. I believe that the growth predicted for the Northern Colorado region over the next 20 years will reguire dilligent planning on the part of the city. The lifeblood of any city is availability and affordaftty ooftdft was submitted online on: Aug-14-2006 11:38 AM Briefly explain what you believe are the three most important issues facing this board or commission, and how do you believe this board or commission should address each issue? t) Based on my research of the board minutes and plans, one of the major issues facing the Affordable Housing Board is reaching an understanding with the City Council in regards to the importance of developing the affordable housing program now. The message has to be clear that waiting until a need for housing is obvious will create a painful waiting period where supply cannot meet demand. p) Another maior issue facing the board is the budget crunch that is currently facing the city of Fort Collins. Due to regional growth, the city is seeing less and less sales tax revenue to fund its city programs and infrastructure. This budget crunch will certainly impact the board in its ability to maintain a staff. It will be the mob of the board to provide a continued emphasis on the importance of affordable housing as well as the need for a group to nurture and grow this concept. 3) A third issue facing the board is filling all available seats and reaching a quorum at all scheduled meetings. It is impossible for a board of any kind to be effective if it cannot maintain a regular meeting schedule and vote on the issues of the day. By filling all vacancies with people who are committed to the purpose of the board it will allow the board to function. It will make a situation where quorum cannot be reached much less likely.

This application was submitted online on: Aug-14-2006 01:55 PM Briefly explain what you believe are the three most important issues facing this board or commission, and how do you believe this board or commission should address each issue? 1) What is the appropriate percentage of affordable housing to total housing in Fort Collins and should Fort Collins be doing more to insure that the housing needs of the low income population are being met? What incentives can be used to encourage low income housing? While the average cost of housing in the City continues to climb are we doing enough to insure that the needs of the lower income are being met? p) Should mandates be used by the City when working with developers? I will keep an open mind in regards to this question and see what the concerns of the City are Each particular project is different and may require different "mandates'or lack thereof. My primary concern is insuring that projects are cost effective for developers to proceed,thus benefiting both the developer and the City,while insuring that critical issues as addressed by the City are met. 3) Can the process working with the City be streamlined to provide easier access to approval and city assistance? I have continually heard from developers about the difficulty working with the City in regards to approvals for projects and requirements placed on them by the City. Can the City continue to meeet its agenda in regards to housing and the growth area in general, while easing the process for developers. Growth seems to be finding its way outside of the City limits and developers need to be encouraged to look again at projects in the City's growth area List any abilities, skills, certificates, specialized training, or interests you have which are applicable to this board or commission: Master's degree in Finance from the Univ.of Colorado-Colorado SpringsKnowledge of construction budgets and developer financinclKnowledge of the real estate market in generalGood communication skills Please specify any activities which might create a serious conflict of interest if you should be appointed to this board or commission: None known Have you attended a meeting of the board or commission you are applying to or talked to anyone currently on the board? ❑Yes X No Comments:Thank you for your consideration.

I feel there is an ongoing battle to represent the Spanish-speaking community. I think this issue should be addressed with a request of the community to support facilitate and promote Spanish-speaking assistance and education where practical and feasible. i 2) Due to the large student population, I believe age discrimination exists to some extent for our senior community. While I am aware of several elder outreach programs, I think it would be positive for the entire community to have some sort of blended age-group event. The old cliche is true that we can learn a lot from our elders, and in Fort Collins,that includes the many changes that have taken place over the years. 3) While I believe Fort Collins does an amazing iob of community events, it seems there is a division between the north and south sides of town. In order to facilitate more community involvement in these varied activities, it would be nice to rotate venues and areas of community events-extending further north and further south when events occur. i List any abilities, skills, certificates, specialized training,or interests you have which are applicable to this board or commission: I work daily with affirmative action laws, as well as state and local laws regarding hiring practices.

On OAna nn-nM ORA Briefly explain what you believe are the three most important issues facing this board or commission, and how do you believe this board or commission should address each issue? f� Fort Collins is growing at a record pace and with that growth comes diversity. It is incumbent on the City of Fort Collins that as we grow, residents of all races, religions, apes, abilities and gender are recognized and celebrated for their contributions to our community. Presentations and forums that showcase these unique attributes allow members of our community to embrace the flavor of our city. p) It is important that this commission continues to cultivate positive relations between groups in our community, and that those relationships are established at an early age. Active involvement in the Poudre School District is an excellent way to foster positive interactions that lead to good will within the community. 3) It is important that positive relations between city government and the citizens of the community are fostered. This commission should be a liaison between the two groups and should actively work to create ways for city officials to interact with community members through meetings, programs and printed materials. An involved community is a healthy community.
