Of all tyrannies. a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better
to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's C17.lelty may sometimes
sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment usfor our own good will torment us without
end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. - C.S. Lewis

RE: Shorewood City Council
Dear Mr. Hurm:
It has come to my attention that you may be looking for an individual to act
on the Shorewood City Council to replace, temporarily, Council Person Jennifer
McCarty whose resignation, I understand, is effective May 1, 1998.
I am a resident of the city of Shorewood, and would consider assisting as a
council person on a temporary basis. I feel a strong bond with this community,
and have been active in public service throughout my career. I am enclosing a
copy of a resume, along with my Martindale-Hubbell profile. Please contact me if
I can be of assistance.
Respectfully,

As a thirteen year resident of the City of Shorewood and active participant in the Christmas

position.
Fred's history as a volunteer in many community activities, interest in local politics and
impressive professional qualifications would be a great asset to this community!
I believe Fred's interest in this position is particularly timely and valuable to the city with
respect to Fred's legal expertise and the city's pursuits to develop green space through tax
deductible easement donations.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this matter further.
Very truly yours,

Dear Jim:
As an eleven year resident of Shorewood, a member of the Planning
Commission and someone who cares about the future direction our City
Government is headed I would like to be considered for the opening on the
City Council. My affiliation with Tom Dahlberg and the new City Council
has led me in this direction and I know that my experience as an Engineer,
Manager and Contractor will add a new dimension to the current Council.
I understand that interviews will be conducted in April so please let me know
what your schedule for these interviews will be so that I can adjust mine
accordingly. I can be reached at work at 588-9857 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00
p.m. or at home 474-3179 after 5:30 p.m. most evenings.

City Administrator

Shorewood, Minnesota 55331
Dear Jim:
This is my formal expression of interest in reappointment to the
Planning Commission.
.
I am completing my fifth year on the Commission. During that time, I
have striven at all times to bring a thoughtful, deliberative approach
to the decisions in front of us. As the city wrestles with the
challenges of an almost-cornpletely-developed community, I believe my
background, approach and experience would continue to be of benefit.
I note that the interviews are scheduled for Monday, 8 December 1997.
Since I have a prior commitment that evening in the area, I request that
I be scheduled as early as possible -- I'm also willing to meet at
another time if more convenient to Council. (It may be easier to
schedule the interviews with current Commissioners earlier in the
evening, since we all have voting records and points of view known to
you all.)
Let me know Council's pleasure. Thank you in advance for your
consideration.
. Very truly yours,

If for some reason you feel I should not be allowed to continue my role as a Planning

Dear Mr. Hurm:
Please accept this letter as an expression of interest in serving on the Shorewood Planning
Commission. As background information and a brief introduction: My wife and I moved
to Shorewood a year ago after sending our last of three children off to college. Prior to
our move, we lived in Orono for ten years and were active in community activities as
they related to school functions and community sports programs.
I also currently serve on the Parent Advisory Committee for the College of St. Benedict
in St. Joseph, Minnesota. This Committee consisting of approximately 20 parents serves
as an Advisory Board for the Administration and deals with such issues as campus
housing, security, academic curriculum, and fiscal responsibility. I have been a
Committee Member for 3 ~ years and believe we provide valuable input to the
administration.
.
I would be very interested in continuing my community involvement in Shorewood and
would appreciate an opportunity to be considered.
For more information or to schedule an interview, I can be reached in the evening at
(470-8013) or during the day at (513-3626). Thank you and I look forward to hearing
from you.
Sincerely,

Re: Board posItion with the Parks or Planning commissions.
.
Dear: Mr. Hurm
My wife and I are native Minnesotans. We along with our daughter recently moved to the
Shorewood area. We believe that the strength of a community lies with its residences. I
am therefore interested in serving on either the Planning or the Parks commission. The
Parks in the communities that we have lived in have been important to us. We enjoy
jogging on the paths, using the play grounds, beaches and all other such facilities. The
planning of communities is of equal importance and I would feel honored to serve on
either board.
.
I have a BA in Political Science from the University of Minnesota and am currently
working towards an MBA at the University of Saint Thomas. I am a banker working in
the commercial lending area and am currently employed with Park National Bank, in St
Louis Park. 1 have served on a number of non profit boards of directors including the
Wisconsin Mortgage bankers Association and The University Of Minnesota Federal
Credit Union. I am also a Captain in the Minnesota National Guard. I have had over nine
years of service in the Minnesota National Guard. I enjoy serving my state and
('flmmunity I wOldd he intl"'rested in ~peaki!1g more with ~orneop..e ~hont the flO"jtif.\ns
that are available. Please don't hesitate to contact me at my home number listed above.
