Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards:
I currently serve on the Chapel Hill Public Library Advisory Board, but I do not currently
nor have I ever served on an Orange County Advisory Board.
Boards/Commissions applied for:
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I am a North Carolina native, growing up in Columbus County, and have been a resident of
Orange County since 1993, my freshman year at UNC. While an undergrad here, I worked in
several bars and restaurants in Chapel Hill, both cooking and bartending, prior to working at
UNC for several years, first in finance administration and then university development. In 2010, 1
returned to UNC to attend law school, and I have been a practicing attorney in Chapel Hill since
graduating from law school and passing the bar exam in 2013. In that capacity, I have
represented clients with alcohol infractions as well as advised small businesses on alcohol
regulations. I ve also been a customer lawfully for 22 years now.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
As a longtime resident, homeowner, and parent in this community, I have a vested interest in its
governance. I also feel somewhat connected to the local food and spirits scene, having worked
in restaurants years ago and having more recently represented and consulted with restaurant
owners. I have followed closely the lobbying efforts of local icons Scott Maitland and Gary
Crunkleton and have a great appreciation for the level of engagement within our community.
Additionally, for the last several years, I have enjoyed my experience serving with the Chapel Hill

Public Library Board, and I look forward to becoming more active in additional capacities in the
community.

Conflict of Interest:
I have no business interest that could create a conflict of interest, and, while I don t believe that I
have a personal interest that would be a real conflict either, I thought it worthwhile to disclose
that I worked in bars and restaurants many years ago and my wife is currently an employee of
Crook s Corner restaurant.

Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards:
None
Boards/Commissions applied for:
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I retired from the Chapel Hill Police Department after 28 years of service. In that capacity, I
spend a considerable amount of time in the enforcement of alcohol laws. Since retiring I have
been involved with three community coalitions that worked on issues relating to underage
drinking. My work in this area has included close association with local law enforcement
agencies.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
I have worked with the ABC Board for a number of years, both as a law enforcement officers, as
well as a community member. I realize the board works closely with law enforcement agencies,
as well as community members in supporting responsible alcohol sales and possession. I am
interested in continuing my involvement with these initiatives and supporting the role of the ABC
Board as part of this goal.
Conflict of Interest:
The only possible perceived conflict might be I currently work with a coalition that has received
ABC Board grant funding. However, to the best of my knowledge, any compensation I have
received does not come from these grant funds.
Supplemental Questions:
8
Page 2 of 2 Patrick Burns
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Please list/explain your experience, either professionally and/or from other
boards/commissions that you have in the areas of budget, personnel, and management.
During my employment with the Chapel Hill Police Department, I supervised and managed line
level officers involved in patrol, criminal investigations and crime prevention. I also submitted
and managed several grants received by that agency, one of which involved federal funds.
Through my years, I was also very aware of the need to operate within an established budget
and responsible accounting for those funds.
In addition to the experience listed in the question above, please list the work/volunteer
experience/qualifications that would add to your expertise for this board.
Through my work with community coalitions, I continue to maintain a close relationship with local
and state law enforcement agencies, as well as other community groups involved in preventing
harm to youth by alcohol and other substances. I have also had extensive interaction with the
NC ABC Commission, both in the training delivery, as well as monitoring sanctions for
businesses that violate laws and regulations. I believe these relationships can by of value to this
Board.
What do you see as the responsibilities of this board, and what do you hope to
accomplish if appointed?
I believe the main responsibility of this Board is to develop and maintain rules, regulations,
policies and procedures which provide for safe and responsible alcohol sales through their
outlets. I also believe an important responsibility is to serve as a strong community partner and
support other community groups that have shared goals or objectives, including responsible
alcohol possession and consumption. I feel my extensive law enforcement and community work
can be of value in these ongoing efforts.

Boards/Commissions applied for:
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
I offer the board experience in general litigation as well as substantive experience in both
regulatory and corporate law.
I have been an attorney for fifteen years, during which time I served as a law clerk for a federal
judge, a trial attorney at both the Department of Justice and the Federal Communications
Commission in Washington, DC, and now as in-house counsel at a software company in the
Triangle. My practice as a litigator at DOJ spanned a broad range of law, from first amendment
to national security, and I regularly appeared in courts across the country. During my time at the
FCC, I mediated, negotiated, and litigated claims before both judicial and administrative bodies.
Through these experiences, I have become accustomed to working with people of different
backgrounds and facilitating interactions among competing interest groups.
I believe that my substantive experience with regulatory law and litigation as well as my ability to
work with people of different backgrounds, beliefs, and experience would allow me to contribute
to the board.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
I have worked in the public sector for much of my career. Although now I work for a private
company, I am always looking for opportunities to volunteer for local government. I am
particularly interested in places where regulatory law overlaps with public interest, and the ABC
board seems to sit squarely at that intersection.

I grew up in Chapel Hill, and both of my parents taught at UNC. I left home for college in 1998
and lived out-of-state until 2017, when I moved back to Chapel Hill with my husband and
daughter. Twenty years spent living in cities both smaller and larger than Chapel Hill has given
me a broad perspective on the challenges that every municipality faces and on the ways in
which Chapel Hill is special. I recall my childhood in Chapel Hill fondly, and returning home has
cast those memories in a new light, as I have been reintroduced to the town as an adult,
homeowner, citizen, and mother of a child who will attend the same public schools that I did.
