Member of Home Owners Association Board and Architectural Review Committee Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: None Boards/Commissions applied for: Hillsborough Planning Board Background, education and experience relevant to this board: I have been leaving in the Hillsborough extraterritorial Jurisdiction area since 2004. 1 have served as President of a HOA in Oceanside CA with more than 350 homes, dealing with the sub- divisions growth, enforcement and budgeting. I have an MBA in finance from Wake Forest with my Bachelor of Business Administration Business from NCCU. My husband and I have owned several successful businesses, where I was the CEO, dealing with contract/budget negotiations between our company and large pharmaceutical companies. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: As I move into retirement, which is planned for January 2021, 1 will have to time to dedicate to community activities. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: I understand the needs of the local people vs the desires of the re-located citizens. Sometimes the wants may seem conflicting. I moved to NC in 1986, before the large migration and became part of the local community, not as a transit. I grew up in Cambridge MA, a college town and understand the sensitivity of townies when there is a large number of outsiders taking over control of their town. I feel I can help to bridge the understanding between the locals and the newbies. 12 Page 2 of 3 Saru Salvi Conflict of Interest: Advisory Board on Aging Background, education and experience relevant to this board: My mother is 101 years old. I have learned a great deal about the services to the elderly on the local, state and federal level. Albeit, that my mother lives in MA, I at least know what questions need to be addressed and how to dig and find the answers. As a senior myself, I find negotiating the services available from different resources can be confusing. I feel that I can offer valuable insight to the Board about senior s needs. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: I would like to serve of this board because I feel that it is important that we give our senior citizens all of the support they need and also anticipate needs that they do not recognize. As I stated above, my mother is 101 years old and there are services she is receiving that I never knew existed. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: Not only being a senior myself, but having a mother who is elderly, I can bring a unique viewpoint to the board from the caregivers side. Recognizing that many seniors/elderly do not have access to information, often a caregiver has to step in and help. So not only are the seniors/elderly need support, but the caregivers as well. Conflict of Interest: Affordable Housing Advisory Board Background, education and experience relevant to this board: 990744288 Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: At one time I lived in public housing and received government housing assistance. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: After my experience in trying to find affordable housing in Cambridge MA, I would like to give back to my current committee by offering my experiences. Making sure the community understands the value of an economically diverse population, the acceptance of affordable housing could increase, helping to unify our communities. Gentrification has put housing out of reach for many people who grew up in these ares. Conflict of Interest: I understand the need for affordable housing. It can be very difficult to find, especially in an expensive area. I also understand the concerns of neighborhood people who are afraid to have lower income populations around them. Having experienced government housing assistance, I could bring that experience to the board to help address the neighborhoods concerns.

Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: I think is time to get more involve in my community and give them back all what I learn in all these years, of course I can wait for a position like that.

I am incredibly passionate about keeping Orange County accessible to all walks of life. We need doctors, teachers and food service workers in all areas of this county to keep it vibrant. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: I love Hillsborough and Orange County s economic and age diversity. It was what brought me and my family to this area 23 years ago.

I have served on this board for 2-years and have enjoyed being a part of the process. I also have several years of architectural background in civic/justice projects at the state and local level. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: As a resident of Hillsborough and Orange County for over 5-years, it is important to me to understand how I can help the community understand the process. The planning process can be confusing (even to me), so hearing everyone s thoughts and opinions are very helpful. I understand people s trepidation and concern about changes in this community. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: Conflict of Interest: 29 Page 2 of 2 Jeff Scott Affordable Housing Advisory Board Background, education and experience relevant to this board: As an architect, affordable housing is always a critical topic of concern. I practiced in residential architecture at the beginning of my career. I have also volunteered with Habitat for Humanity in Charlotte, Asheville, and Raleigh/Durham. My previous experience working with general contractors and construction managers also allows me to understand the ramifications of costing, constructability, and project management. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: Affordable housing is a very important and apt topic locally and nationally. As an active professional in this region, I continue to see how this area is being shaped for both the positive and negative. Contribution to the diversity of viewpoints on this board: I believe that the diversity I could bring to the Affordable Housing Advisory Board could certainly be an asset for Orange County. Having lived in other communities in this state (Asheville, Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham), as well as having spent time studying abroad in Italy and Germany, I have seen a variety of strategies that address housing. In many instances this housing has been shaped by how the urban or rural fabric is shaped. Orange County has the opportunity to really be a leader in driving affordable housing strategies forward as the county grapples with issues of growth and long-term planning strategies. I have seen this while working on single- family and multi-family residential projects and how the divide between building types is critical. Having seen how other communities grapple with affordable housing is also very important to me. Affordable housing is always a very difficult and contentious topic. I have previously been a part of a design/build architectural studio that focused solely on designing and building a home for a low-income family. I have seen how carefully and thoughtfully the process can be executed. Much of the process comes down to creating an architecture of decency for the people that inhabit these homes.

Conflict of Interest: I am mostly retired from development, but were I to create another Orange County subdivision I don t see how that would be a conflict.

Chapel Hill is my home now and I want to contribute to the success of Chapel Hill s Affordable Housing Advisory Board.

These alternative approaches include, but are not limited to, housing cooperatives and community land trusts. Conflict of Interest: It could be perceived that my interest is partly self-serving and meant to ease the pathway to establishing a limited-equity housing cooperative for our forming intentional community. But that is not my purpose, as we are well along the path to success in this regard already.
