July 29, 1993 <br /> <br /> Jill E. Johns <br />6043 - 174th Avenue NW <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br />753-6585 <br /> <br />Kay McAIoney <br />Personnel Coordinator <br />Ramsey Municpal Center <br />15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W, <br />Ramsey, MN 55303 <br /> <br />Dear Ms. McAIcney: <br /> <br />I am writing in response to your article in the Ramsey Resident <br />newsletter. I would like to add my name as a candidate to fill the vacancy <br />on the Park and Recreation Commission. <br /> <br />To be completely honest, I have no experiencei'n municipal affairs. What <br />I do have is a willingness to give my time and the ability to communicate <br />my views concisely. I would be bringing to the Commission a new- <br />resident's perspective. <br /> <br />The driving force behind my seeking an appointment to the Commission is <br />my family. I'm sure that probably sounds contrived, but my husband and I <br />moved to Ramsey 13 montl~s ago with our children (ages 3 and 1), and i <br />want them to have all the opportunities to enjoy a Parks and Recreational <br />system that meets the needs of our growing community. <br /> <br />Although I don't have hands on experience in government affairs, I do <br />understand that no Commission or Council is an isolated entity. All <br />government programs must operate within ~t budget and with other <br />restraints that force us to make community choices -- decisions for the <br />good of all. I do not plan to be a neighborhood advocate, although I <br />would bring a neighborhood perspective. <br /> <br /> <br />
