While I support density near the downtown core, I also believe it needs to be balanced. Unique, interesting places, like Bozeman's historic downtown and surrounding neighborhoods have the greatest staying power in a community and need to be prioritized. Bozeman's historic areas reflect the diverse values, culture and heritage of the people who live here. It is these unique features that attract new residents and visitors. At the same time, we need to support a vibrant community for the people who already live here. In the past two years I have become active with the ad hoc group, Bozeman Preservation Advocacy Group. In order to submit thoughtful comments on issues and projects that have arisen over this time, I studied and learned the various applicable plans, codes and guidelines. As a certified public accountant, reading complex guidelines and interpreting their application to every day life is what I do. I know the Bozeman Historic Preservation Advisory Board needs members. I value historic preservation and what it brings to a community and I value this board. Please accept this application.

I would like to bring this passion to the board and help preserve Bozeman's history over the year's to come. It is imperative as cities grow and development 246 increases that we find a way to maintain a link to the history of our area. My family is fortunate enough to have an educational museum named after my great uncle in Puyallup, WA. The Karshner Museum and Center for Culture & Arts has been a long-standing educational facility for the Puyallup School District that connects children to the history of the Pacific Northwest and America. As a high school student, I participated in the museum through dedication speeches and frequently represented the family at new exhibits. Prior to moving to Bozeman, I lived in Park City, UT. Park City has experienced remarkable growth over the past twenty years and during that time they have done an exemplary job in preserving the mining history of the town. This was achieved through preservation of mines, city museums and a strict building code that retained this history in new homes and developments.
