Advisory Board on Aging
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
As a person who is aging I recognize the necessity of recognizing how this process effects
people physically and mentally. I have worked as a geriatric social worker and am a long time
believer in the connection of maintaining physical and mental activities as well as connection to
the larger community to help people age with integrity and dignity. Recently retiring as a high
school teacher, I clearly see the importance of maintaining ties to a larger community to lessen
the isolation created with retirement. I would like the opportunity to bring my ideas to a larger
group in order to be more inclusive of the aging population.

Sustainable/Smart Development of land should be the norm in our future. My
understanding is, it requires legislative approval for ordinances that have certain
requirements. We should do as many things possible to support environmentally
responsible development, such as creating solar easements for future renewable power
use, smarter energy efficiency improvements in new construction, Smart Grid
development, or work on ways to propose changes in the legislature to better protect our
environment on local levels. STAFF COMMENTS: Applied for Commission for the
