ADJOURN * a February 7, 2012 IdM IMM - City Administrator City of Shorewood 5755 Country Club Road Shorewood, Minnesota 55331 near Mr. Ileek! I am submitting my name for consideration to be selected to serve on the Shorewood Planning Commission. As an Election Judge and District and State GOP Delegate, I have demonstrated a keen interest in the processes which shape our local communities, After attending the last hearing held by the Commission regarding future development along the Smithtown Road Corridor, I came away with some serious a^.rnxarerxsc. Most of us would prefer to live in a stylish and forward - leaning community. However, there is a charm and character of individualism, coinciding with privacy and a degree of seclusion and personal property rights, which distinguish Excelsior and its surroundings from places like Wayzata, Chanhassen, and Maple Grove, I want to have an influence in preserving the right balance for my neighborhood. Please note the attached resume. Thank you. Sincerely,:%^ r �. �.r. �BBl6(Bil CHRISTOPHER C.
