Candidates for Planning Commission
I want to recommend tlNo of the candidates who will be applying for a position on the planning commission.
First,Joanne Talesfore has been very good for the commission as a consensus builder and communicator.It
takes time to get a handle on the job and I would hate to see her removed and replaced with a neophyte when
she has just come into her own and is making a real contribution to the commission..
The secona person I would like to recommend is Gary Ball.He is a neighbor of mine.Gary is smart and has
experience dealing with all the forces that got the Jewish community center off the ground..He has a real affection
for our town.As a commissioner,I think he would be fair,cool headed,a quick study,and articulate.Also,he has
time to devote to the commission..
Sincerely,
Jeanne Drexel
