Please explain your
professional background
Ten plus years serving on the ToM Planning and Zoning Commission.
Over 38 years of various experiences with the United States Air
Force. Ability to command, lead, direct, manage, motivate,
Marana Town Council Committee for Planning Commission and Board of Adjustment Appointments

Page 37 of 60
coordinate the action of large complex organizations in attaining
mission goals and objectives. Experience dealing with re zoning
actions/conditional use permits, airfield/base construction projects
as well as issues associated with air base closure. In depth
knowledge with regard to planning, scheduling, executing and
instructing combat and continuation training flying operations. In
depth background with regard to flight, weapons and ground safety.
Describe your experience
working with a Council-
appointed board or commission
I have been a member of the ToM Planning and Zoning Commission
since March 2013 and have had the privilege of being elected as
their Chairman approaching nine years. Over these past years I
have had to opportunity to watch the Commission develop and
mature into a group of professionals who are well versed in the
issues, who listen to the applicant’s proposals and the peoples’
concerns, who facilitates compromise if possible, and then
respectfully voices their position…and while there may be opposition
to a particular Commission action, those parties in opposition know
what each Commission’s rationale is and can hold us accountable.
This has been my first and only experience in working as a team
member in support of Town Council decisions and continues to be
most rewarding.
Describe a time when you had
to stand firm and make a tough
or unpopular decision
I have had to guide/make tough decisions many times throughout my
Air Force Career and while leading the ToM Planning and Zoning
Commission. And while there have been many times when the
Commission has made unpopular decisions on both sides of a
proposal, the most difficult was approving (for a third time) a viable
rezoning action that my neighborhood did not support. This zoning
action required a super majority by the Town Council and did not
pass on the first two attempts. The third rezoning action increased
buffer areas thereby eliminating the requirement for a super
majority, and hence the rezoning action was approved. While my
neighbors were not happy that I voted for and disagreed they knew
my rationale.
If appointed by the Council you
will be representing all of the
Town of Marana in your
decisions. Describe how you
will maintain your objectivity in
making decisions for locations
other than your own residence.
By continuing to follow United States Air Force core values “integrity

What is your vision for the
Town?
To allow controlled growth, that allows for maintaining the small town
feel. Commercial growth i a necessity, but when allowed in a
properly planned manner, it allows for the tax base to be increased,
and provides retail services in the town so that residents do not
need to go to another jurisdiction to spend their money, and the
taxes stay within the town.
What are some of the most
important concerns or issues
that you think the Town will
have to face in the next 5 - 10
years?
Controlled growth. Careful planning of the commercial areas along
the interstate corridor will be a challenge to assure that small
businesses are not negatively impacted but needed services are
provided to the residents and visitors.
What do you see as the Town's
best asset to bring visitors and
new residents to the Town?
The small town feel and atmosphere is what provides charm and a
welcome feel for visitors. That is something that needs to be
preserved. Having the interstate in close proximity, makes for a
conduit for visitors and travelers to stop and spend their money to
increase our town's budget, and in turn our citizens.
Please explain your
professional background
I spent 30+ years as a law enforcement officer in Washington State,
and retired last year. I chose this area after some research and was
fortunate to be hired by OVPD. I have a master's degree in
communications and have extensive experience in marketing,
Marana Town Council Committee for Planning Commission and Board of Adjustment Appointments
June 6, 2023
Page 43 of 60
branding and crisis communications. I am a part time journalist with
several articles published in a online national trade magazine.
I also served as a volunteer firefighter for 23 years.
Describe your experience
working with a Council-
appointed board or commission
I have attended many board meetings from my previous residence,
but have not previously served on any Council appointed boards.
Describe a time when you had
to stand firm and make a tough
or unpopular decision
I served as president for a large non profit charity that was
governed by a board of directors. There were numerous occasions
where my vote as president or decision had to be made that was
best for the charity, and not necessarily what I agreed with.
I also served as the Public Information Officer (PIO)for the State
Patrol, and there were times I had to make decisions that were
going to be very unpopular with segments of the public, but they had
to be made, and I had no issues making them when they are the
right decision to be made.
If appointed by the Council you
will be representing all of the
Town of Marana in your
decisions. Describe how you
will maintain your objectivity in
making decisions for locations
other than your own residence.
I reside in the Dove Mountain area of Marana, which is
geographically removed from the main portion of the town. This
does not mean that I would represent this area, it means I live in
Marana. I firmly believe that all decisions should be evaluated with
the information available, and decisions made based on what is best
for the town, and all residents of Marana.

What is your vision for the
Town?
I envision a Marana that maintains the traditional values that make
Marana unique, in its agricultural heritage, its extensive natural
desert, its family friendly atmosphere, and small town feel. I see a
resilient Marana, prepared for any crisis, from extreme drought and
Tier 2b or Tier 3 water cuts, to electric grid failure or train
derailment. At the same time, we can embrace ideas that set the
foundation for a secure livable future, especially when that involves
not reinventing the wheel but instead accessing ideas that have
been proven elsewhere, such as KB Homes’ savings of 30% water
use with its commitment to Water Sense Certified technology in all
new builds, or other towns’ enabling regulation of versatile “granny
flats” to enhance affordability of homes and maintenance of
extended family ties. These are just examples for further discussion
or applicability to Marana.
What are some of the most
important concerns or issues
that you think the Town will
have to face in the next 5 - 10
years?
1. Increasing housing stock to maintain affordability without losing
our small town atmosphere and natural desert, by expanding
options beyond the usual large single family home.
2. Water conservation to maintain affordable clean water, and
maintain this as a public utility rather than privatization.
3. Employment in Marana so we don’t become just another bedroom
Marana Town Council Committee for Planning Commission and Board of Adjustment Appointments

Page 51 of 60
suburb with a “sea of stucco” and long commutes.
4. Accessing our share of the billions available in the Infrastructure
bill and the Inflation Reduction Act to earn Marana a reputation as a
clean energy oasis. This could take the form of grants for training
programs in clean tech jobs, town regulations to facilitate clean
energy development, shade tree programs, alternative transit
options, grants for local farmers to benefit from Dept. Of Agriculture
programs, etc.
5. Traffic management, especially at clog points like Cortaro, Ina,
Orange Grove using technology like better timed lights, and
alternative transportation like Park N Ride lots, trolleys or
neighborhood circulators, incentives to businesses to operate non
traditional hours or company vans, more bike lanes and ride share.
This will become ever more important as Marana’s population
grows.
What do you see as the Town's
best asset to bring visitors and
new residents to the Town?
For both visitors and new residents, being able to visit our natural
desert without driving for a hundred miles is our best asset. Being
next to the Saguaro National Park, Ironwood National Monument, and
enclosing a large portion of the Loop, as well as our own Tortolita
Preserve and El Rio Preserve is a major draw for tourists, especially
hikers, backpackers, bird watchers, photographers, bicyclists and so
on. This draw for tourists can be further enhanced with new ideas
like car charging stations in parking lots bringing tourists to local
businesses.
Please explain your
professional background
I am semi retired at this point, which has the advantage of allowing
me to devote needed time to such an important position. I spent half
my career in services (primarily case management and supervisory)
for people with developmental disabilities, and the other half as an
over the road truck driver and owner operator. See my resume for
more details but this unusual combination has allowed me to
develop a broad range of skills and experience. I also am passionate
about lifelong learning in many varied areas.
Describe your experience
working with a Council-
appointed board or commission
Though not specifically with a Council appointed board, my work in
disability services was based on a broad commitment to team
process and consensus decision making. My process is to identify a
problem or need, identify and evaluate various options and barriers
to attend to that, select the best option, evaluate how well that is
working or not working and repeat as needed.
Describe a time when you had
to stand firm and make a tough
or unpopular decision
My disability agency had wanted to leave a family with incorrect
information about their daughter’s waiting list status, which could
lead to her being ineligible for needed services in the future. In spite
of much pressure and even verbal abuse, I insisted on giving them
correct facts so they could make the best decision for their family.
If appointed by the Council you
will be representing all of the
Town of Marana in your
decisions. Describe how you
will maintain your objectivity in
making decisions for locations
Because I am newer to Marana, I feel I can be more independent
from vested interests. Because I have worked with a variety of
people, from very low income to well off, and professional to blue
collar, I am able to consider decisions from several points of view.

What is your vision for the
Town?
My vision for the Town of Marana is to continue the Town's work on
creating a thriving, healthy Community with opportunities to live,
work and thrive. I support creating a safe community for families to
raise their children while creating a sense of place. I believe Marana
has done a great job with creating a sense of place by including it's
rich history in the Marana Heritage Park and Downtown Marana. I
also believe that Marana has done their part in supporting economic
development by creating jobs for the many families that call Marana
home. I would like to serve on the Planning Commission to help with
the vision for the Town and the many challenges in front of them,
including issues with the Central Arizona Water supply concerns and
quality of water. I would also like to volunteer my time and past
experience in Planning & Development to help plan the future of the
Town to create a better place.
What are some of the most
important concerns or issues
that you think the Town will
have to face in the next 5 - 10
years?
1. Water quality and supply
2. Paying for public Improvements as the Town grows at a rapid pace
3. Supporting economic development with the future water
challenges

What do you see as the Town's
best asset to bring visitors and
new residents to the Town?
place and preserving Marana's rich history. Marana also has many
open space areas and park amenities for visitors to enjoy. The
Town's best asset to bring new residents to Town is the Marana
Unified School District, the growing economic development within
Town limits, and the guarantee of living in safe neighborhoods
Marana does not deal with the same issues as other areas like the
City of Tucson. The City faces homelessness, drugs and crime
making Marana a safer place to live.
Please explain your
professional background
I am a professional urban planner. I have been involved in many
projects throughout Southern Arizona from beginning to development
completion. My favorite part of my job is problem solving and using
my expertise to create a better Community.
Describe your experience
working with a Council-
appointed board or commission
Earlier this year I was appointed by Pima County Board of
Supervisor, Sharon Bronson, to the Pima County Transportation
Advisory Committee. The Committee was formed to make
recommendations specifically related to transportation
improvements, operation, and maintenance in the unincorporated
area of Pima County and for transportation improvements,
operation, and maintenance within incorporated cities and towns
where County funds are being spent for these purposes. I really
enjoy being part of a Committee that works together to make better
decisions on pavement preservation. We listen to County staff
recommendation and utilize our experience to give the public a voice.
I believe our volunteer time will help make Pima County a safer place
for it's residents.
Describe a time when you had
to stand firm and make a tough
or unpopular decision
Although on the opposite end of the dais at public hearing, i stood
firm when making a decision to move forward on a higher density
project. It is typical that neighbors, neighborhood associations don't
support higher density projects in established neighborhoods. I took
a project that was surrounded by development and protesting
neighborhoods to fruition. This decision was difficult because the
project was not supported by Council or neighborhood, but it was
good planning. The project was a perfect place for density
surrounded by multi modal opportunities. It was close to bus
service, bicycle paths and the streetcar. The project created a more
affordable place to live and made sense with the all existing utilizes
available nearby. I should good planning for the future.
If appointed by the Council you
will be representing all of the
Town of Marana in your
decisions. Describe how you
will maintain your objectivity in
making decisions for locations
other than your own residence.
For my entire career, I have had to work with engineers, architects,
developers and neighborhood association. I've always had to
maintain my objectivity in making decision while taking into
consideration the surrounding neighbors, the environmental
community, and other political officials. I've learned that the project
and issue brought in front of me will always require objectivity. I'm
excited to be representing the Town and will recuse myself if any KB
Home project is brought to hearing.
