Other Comments: Though I currently live within the Chapel Hill city limits, I would make an excellent At- Large" member of the board because I grew up in a very rural area of the state (Swain County), so I identify strongly with my neighbors who live in the more rural .areas of Orange County. I sumbmitted an application for these boards a couple of years ago, so I just wanted to update my application and remind the Board of my interest. Also, though I currently reside in the Chapel Hill township, my husband and I now own 6 acres outside the city limits and plan to build a home there in the near future.
