The BID operates with an annual budget in the neighborhood of $80,000 per year. All revenues come from dues that are assessed to the members, currently $30 to $90 per quarter. Dues are legally assessed to the businesses, and the businesses are legally obligated to pay the dues, but neither the BID nor the City currently have a good way to enforce payment. Ot ED9gO Packet Pg. 4 A Task Force was formed in January to formulate some policy. There are some questions that have not yet been answered or there is not a clear consensus on: • A The consensus of the task force was to remove the dues owed by businesses that are closed or inactive from the schedule of "Dues Receivable" amounting to about $38,000. That leaves over $38,000 late dues owed by businesses that are open. We are waiting for guidance on how to handle these late dues. • As of last spring, out of about 212 active businesses there were 41 that owe an average of $300 ($12,500 total) and 11 that owe an average of $2,300 ($25,000 total). We have no policy about writing down these amounts. At what point would you like us to do this? • Should we continue charging 12% interest on accounts that are in arrears? • Should we continue sending businesses to Collections when they get behind? Our preference is No - this adds administrative burden to the Finance department, and businesses generally ignore the Collection Agency so they do not have a lot of success anyway. • Other City departments pay for the services provided by Administrative Services — we would like to start billing the BID. It would be around $6K to $8K per year. This is for things like doing the paperwork to add new businesses, invoicing, receipting and depositing dues, sending late accounts to Collections and corresponding with the Collection agency, approving and paying all of their invoices, and responding to public disclosures, which are extensive.

In many ways, fund balance represents working capital, which can either be used as a liquidity reserve or for spending in future years. A comprehensive fund balance/reserve management policy provides guidelines for the major funds of the City of Edmonds and provides a structured approach in setting reserve levels in specifically designated funds. This Fund Balance/Reserve Management Policy is intended to guide prudent use of resources to provide for the much needed services to taxpayers and to maintain sound management policies. It is essential that governments maintain adequate levels of fund balance reserves to mitigate risks and provide a back-up for revenue shortfalls. Policy It is the policy of the City of Edmonds to provide for the continuity of City government by planning ahead for economic uncertainties and unforeseen or unplanned major expenditures. In order to achieve reserve goals the City must exercise prudent debt and liability management policies and follow sound fiscal management policies that prioritize the City's core services. This policy establishes reserve fund balance accounts that will provide funding for emergencies, economic uncertainties and for unanticipated operating expenses or revenue shortfalls. In addition, this policy incorporates provisions of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASB) no. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. Objectives The purpose of this Fund Balance/Reserve Management Policy is to assist the City in the pursuit of the following equally important objectives: 1. Build adequate reserves which will provide the City the resources necessary for financial stabilization, particularly during times of unforeseen emergencies and economic downturns; 2. Establish sound fiscal reserve policies that will serve as the foundation for ensuring that strong fiscal management policies guide future City decisions; 3. Provide prudent guidelines regarding the establishment, use and replenishment of City committed or assigned fund balances/reserves; 4. Establish a process for periodic reporting and review of the City's various fund balances (reserves); and 5. Enhance the City's credit ratings received from rating institutions through the establishment of clearly delineated Fund/Reserve policies that promote strong fiscal management; 6. Establish reserve policies that are in full compliance with GASB 54 financial reporting requirements. Page 5 Packet Pg. 11 2.2.a ARTICLE II CRITERIA FOR ESTABLISHING APPROPRIATE FUND BALANCE RESERVE LEVELS There are key elements that must be reviewed and analyzed to determine the appropriate size of a given fund balance reserve. Failure to follow the guidelines established in this policy can result in developing unattainable fund reserve goals or unsustainable fund balance reserve levels. The following criteria shall be used in determining the appropriate fund balance reserve levels: Section 1. Volatility The predictability and/or the volatility of its revenues or its expenditures (i.e., higher levels of fund balance reserves may be needed if significant revenue sources are subject to unpredictable fluctuations or if operating expenditures are highly volatile). Section 2. Operating Fund Size The overall size of the fund's budgetary events should be taken into consideration in setting the required fund balance reserve level and type for a particular fund. Section 3. Purpose of F and Balance Reserves Another consideration for determining the size of each reserve will be the purpose of the reserve: Is there significant or perceived exposure to one-time outlays (e.g., disasters, immediate capital needs, state budget cuts, or are there potential drains upon fund resources from other funds, or conversely, are there potential reductions in funding transfers from other funds)? Section 4. Bond Ratings The potential impact on the entity's bond ratings and the corresponding increased cost of borrowed funds. ARTICLE III COMMITTED GENERAL FUND BALANCE RESERVES POLICY This Policy shall establish a committed fund balance reserve within the General Fund, define funding levels and call the reserve the General Fund Operating Reserve. The purpose of the reserve is for meeting economic uncertainties, and unanticipated expenses or revenue shortfalls. This Policy requires the City to establish and maintain a General Fund Operating Reserve, within the General Fund, in an amount equal to or greater than 16% of the General Fund's Adopted Annual O e� rating Expenditure Budget. If it is determined that the reserve balances are not adequate, the Finance Director shall propose an amendment to these policies. A detailed accounting of this reserve account will be maintained by the Finance Department to show deposits, withdrawals (when authorized pursuant to policies contained herein) and interest earned. All accounting for these accounts shall be recorded in the City's ERP system. A detailed report, prepared by the Finance Department, shall be presented annually to the Council. Section 1. Establishment and Purpose of Operatin_g General Fund Operating Reserve A separate balance sheet account shall be setup by the Finance Director for the General Fund Operating Reserve, to be used in instances of fiscal emergencies that include: economic uncertainties, unforeseen emergencies and unanticipated operating expenses or revenue shortfalls. Page 6 Packet Pg. 12 2.2.a The Mayor has the power to declare a fiscal emergency based upon one of the following: 1) A natural catastrophe; 2) An immediate threat to health and public safety; or 3) A significant decline in General Fund revenues. The fiscal emergency declared by the Mayor must be approved by a simple majority of the City Council. Limitations of Fund Use Any use of the committed General Fund Operating Reserves shall be used only in cases of fiscal emergency and shall not be used to augment ongoing budgetary/operating spending increases. The committed General Fund Operating Reserve may also be used for one-time non -reoccurring expenditures and/or capital projects (operations and maintenance shall not be included), all as submitted by the Mayor and approved by the Council. The amount of funds to be withdrawn from this committed fund balance reserve shall be determined by the Mayor. In his/her presentation to the Council, the Mayor or his/her designee shall include a detailed list of how the funds will be applied. A simple majority vote of the Council shall be required to approve the amount and use of funds. Transition Policy Council adoption of this policy will trigger moving an amount not less than 16% of the General Fund's unrestricted fund balance to the General Fund Operating Reserve. General Fund Operating Reserve Replenishment If any use of the committed General Fund Operating Reserve has occurred, the Finance Director must present to Mayor and City Council an annual Replenishment Report during the month of November. The Replenishment Report must be presented each year, until the Reserves are fully replenished. The Replenishment Report must include the following information: 1) Amount of Reserves used 2) Whether it is anticipated additional Reserves will be needed in the following budget cycle, or 3) If no additional Reserves are needed, then the Replenishment Report must include a plan for replenishing the Reserve to policy mandated levels. The committed General Fund Reserve shall be restored pursuant to the guidelines delineated below: 1) If a reserve is drawn down by 0-10% of reserve fund balance, then a solution to replenish to at least the minimum shall be structured over a 1 to 3 year period. 2) If a reserve is drawn down by 11-25% of reserve fund balance, then the budgetary plan to restore the reserve shall be structured over a 3 to 5 year period. 3) If the reserve is drawn down by 26-50% of reserve fund balance, then a budgetary plan shall be implemented to return the reserve level to between 75% and 100% of the minimum balance over a 5 to 7 year period. ARTICLE IV CONTINGENT RESERVE FUND BALANCE POLICY This Policy shall establish a fund and define funding levels for a committed Fund Balance Reserve to Page 7 Packet Pg. 13 2.2.a be called the Contingent Reserve Fund. The primary purpose of the reserve is for meeting emergencies of the City and, secondarily, if the General Fund Operating Reserve have been exhausted, the Contingent Reserve Fund can be use in times of economic uncertainties, and for unanticipated expenses or revenue shortfalls. The target balance of the Reserve shall 1) not exceed the limitations set forth by RCW 35A.33.145, which sets the statutory maximum at $0.375 per $1,000 of assessed valuation and 2) when combined with the General Fund Operating Reserve, the two fund balance reserves shall not exceed 20% of the General Fund's Adopted Annual Operatin Expenditure Budget. In other words, if the General Fund Operating Reserve balance equals 16% of operating budget, then the Contingent Reserve Fund balance cannot exceed 4% of the operating budget. It further requires a simple majority vote of Council with a statement declaring the reason for their use. A detailed accounting of the Fund shall be maintained by the Finance Department to show deposits, withdrawals (when authorized pursuant to policies contained herein) and be presented annually to the Council. The Mayor has the power to declare a fiscal emergency based upon one of the following: 1) A natural catastrophe; 2) An immediate threat to health and public safety; or 3) A significant economic decline in General Fund revenues. The fiscal emergency declared by the Mayor must be approved by a simple majority of the City Council. Limitations of Fund Use Any use of the committed Contingent Reserves shall be used in cases of fiscal emergency, shall not be used to augment ongoing budgetary/operating spending increases and should be used only after the General Fund Operating Reserves have been exhausted or when City Council approves specific used of the committed Contingent Reserve for one-time non -reoccurring expenditures and/or capital projects (operations and maintenance shall not be included). The amount of funds to be withdrawn from this committed fund balance reserve shall be determined by the Mayor. In his/her presentation to the Council, the Mayor or his/her designee shall include a detailed list of how the funds will be applied. A simple majority vote of the Council shall be required to approve the amount and use of funds. Contingent Reserve Replenishment If any use of the committed Contingent Reserve has occurred, the Finance Director must present to Mayor and City Council an annual Replenishment Report during the month of November. The Replenishment Report must be presented each year, until the Reserves are fully replenished. The Replenishment Report must include the following information: 1) Amount of Reserves used 2) Whether it is anticipated additional Reserves will be needed in the following budget cycle, or 3) If no additional Reserves are needed, then the Replenishment Report must include a plan for replenishing the Reserve to policy mandated levels. The committed Contingent Reserve shall be restored pursuant to the guidelines delineated below: 1) If a reserve is drawn down by 0-10% of reserve fund balance, then a solution to replenish to at least the minimum shall be structured over a 1 to 3 year period. Page 8 3 Packet Pg. 14 2) If a reserve is drawn down by 11-25% of reserve fund balance, then the budgetary plan to restore the reserve shall be structured over a 3 to 5 year period. 3) If the reserve is drawn down by 26-50% of reserve fund balance, then a budgetary plan shall be implemented to return the reserve level to between 75% and 100% of the minimum balance over a 5 to 7 year period. ARTICLE V ANNUAL FUND BALANCE TYPES - STATUS REPORT Once a year, in August, the City Finance Director shall present to the Council Finance Committee a comprehensive report on the City's fund balance reserve types as of June 30th. The report shall include an updated fund balance reserve level for each fund balance type. This report shall include the following funds: 1. General Fund Operating Reserve balance; 2. Contingency Reserve Fund balance. ARTICLE VI FIVE-YEAR RESERVE RATE REVIEW Every five years, during the annual budget hearings, the Mayor, based upon a comprehensive financial and economic review of all City fund balance types and in consultation with the City Finance Director, and Department Directors as necessary, shall make recommendations to the City Council for either maintaining existing fund balance reserve polices or revising fund balance reserve policies including percentage ranges established by category herein and replenishment requirements by categories established herein. ARTICLE VII DEVIATIONS FROM POLICY No deviations from the fund balance reserve polices set forth in this Policy will be allowed except as approved by a simple majority of vote by the Council. This includes any increase or decrease in the base fund balance reserve levels established by this policy and expenditures from fund balance reserve accounts for anything other than the intended budgeted use of said fund balance. ARTICLE VIII DEFINITIONS Budget - A plan of financial operation containing an estimate of proposed expenditures for a given period (usually a fiscal year) and a proposed forecast of revenues (receipts) to cover them. A budget is also a plan that outlines an organization's financial and operational goals and strategies in monetary terms. Capital Expenditures are expenditures incurred when monies are spent either to buy fixed assets or to add to the value of an existing fixed asset with a useful life that extends beyond the fiscal year. In accounting, a capital expenditure is added to an asset account ("capitalized"), thus increasing the asset's basis (the cost or value of an asset). The general rule (even for municipalities) is that if the property acquired has a useful life longer than the fiscal year, the cost must be capitalized. The capital expenditure costs are then amortized or depreciated over the life of the asset in question. Page 9 Packet Pg. 15 2.2.a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) - A CAFR is a set of financial statements for a state, municipality or other governmental entity that comply with the accounting requirements established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). It must be audited by an independent auditor using generally accepted government auditing standards. The CAFR consists of three sections: Introductory, Financial and Statistical. The Introductory section orients and guides the reader through the report. The Financial section presents the entity's basic financial statements as well as notes to the statements and the independent auditors' report. The Statistical section provides additional financial and statistical data, including data about financial trends that may better inform the reader about the government's activities. Council - Means the legislative body (the city council) that governs the City of Edmonds. Expenditure - The actual payment of cash or cash equivalent for goods delivered or services rendered, or a charge against available funds in settlement of an obligation as evidenced by an invoice, voucher or other such document during the fiscal year. For governmental reporting purposes, expenditures include expenses or a provision for debt retirement not reported as a liability of the fund from which retired. Fiscal Year - A 12 month period to which the annual operating budget applies and the end of which a governmental unit determines its financial position and the results of its operations. The City has specified January I through December 31 as its fiscal year. Fund - A fund is a self -balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and "residual" equity or balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain planned objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations. Fund Balances - The overall objective of fund balance reporting is to isolate that portion of a fund balance that is unavailable to support the following period's budget (see GASB 54 definition below). In general, an unassigned fund balance shall be defined as those amounts that are not restricted, committed, or assigned, of a particular fund at the end of the fiscal year. GASB 54 - Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions - The City of Edmonds's CAFR Financial Statements are required to comply with GASB 54 beginning with its Fiscal Year End 2011 CAFR going forward. GASB 54 changes and identifies fund balance classifications that can be more consistently applied by clarifying existing governmental fund type definitions. Fund balance is basically the difference between the assets and liabilities reported in a fund. GASB statement No. 54 provides the following five categories for classifying fund balance and related definitions to be used for describing the components of fund balance: 1. Nons endahle Fund Balance Amounts that are not in a spendable form or are required to be maintained intact. Due to the nature or form of the resources, they generally cannot be expected to be converted into cash or a spendable form (e.g. Inventories and prepaid amounts). This also Page 10 Packet Pg. 16 2.2.a includes long-term loan and notes receivable and property held for resale. Applies as well to amounts that must be retained intact legally or contractually. 2. Restricted Fund Balance — Amounts that can be spent only for the specific purposes stipulated. Constraints are placed on the use of resources by external parties (e.g. by creditors, grant providers, contributors) or by laws or regulations (e.g. constitution or legally enforceable language). Restrictions may be changed or lifted only with the consent of the resource provider. 3. Committed Fund Balance.— Amounts can only be used for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of City Council. Constraints on fund balance use are imposed by internal formal action of the government's highest level of decision -making authority (e.g. City Council) and can only be removed or changed by taking the same type of action it employed to commit those amounts through legislation, resolution, or ordinance (e.g. funds committed to satisfy .5 contractual obligations). Action to constrain resources must occur prior to year-end; however the amount can be determined in the subsequent period. 2 4. Assigned Fund Balance — Assigned fund balances include amounts that are limited by the ° a Council, Mayor, or his/her designee, for its intended use, but little or no formal action is required to modify or eliminate those limitations. Assigned fund balances comprises amounts intended to be used for a specific purpose. Amounts reported as assigned should not result in a deficit in m unassigned fund balance. Also relates to all governmental funds other than the General Fund, with any remaining positive amounts not classified as nonspendable, restricted or committed. 5. Unassigned Fund Balance — Comprises the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all amounts not contained in the other classifications. Unassigned amounts are available N for any purpose. This represents the residual amount of the fund balance that has not been >; restricted, committed, or assigned. General Fund - In public sector accounting, the General Fund is the primary operating fund for all revenues of the City that are not otherwise restricted as to their use, including monies from local property and sales tax, and other revenue sources that are not assigned for a specific purpose. The General Fund provides the resources necessary to pay/sustain the day-to-day activities for City services such as administration, community services, parks and recreation, police, fire, public works, elected officials, Mayor, and City Council. When governments or administrators talk about "balancing the budget" they typically mean balancing the budget for their general fund. Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) - GASB is the private, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that works to create and improve the rules U.S. state and local governments follow when accounting for their finances and reporting them to the public. While the GASB does not have the power to enforce compliance with the standards it promulgates, the authority for its standards is recognized under the Rules of Conduct of the AICPA. Also, legislation in many states requires compliance with GASB standards, and governments usually are expected to prepare financial statements in accordance with those standards when they issue bonds or notes or otherwise borrow from public credit markets. The GASB was established in 1984 and is funded by publication sales, contributions from state and local governments, and voluntary assessment fees from municipal bond issues. Operating Budget — A detailed projection of all estimated income and expenses based on forecasted revenue during a given period (usually one year). Since an operating budget is a short-term budget, capital outlays are excluded because they are long-term costs. One-time revenues, such as grants, settlements, Page 11 Packet Pg. 17 2.2.a sales of assets and transfers are excluded because often they are non -recurring sources of revenues and cannot be counted on coming in from one budget cycle to the next. Revenue - The income of a government from all sources appropriated for the payment of the public expenses. It includes such items as tax payments, fees from specific services, receipts from other governments, fines, forfeitures, grants, shared revenues and interest income. Structural Budget Deficit or "Gap" - A budget deficit (Gap) that results from a fundamental imbalance whereby current year governmental expenditures exceed current year revenues without any consideration of carryover or prior year unspent revenue balances if they exist. A structural deficit remains across the operating fiscal cycle because the general level of government spending is too high for the prevailing revenue structure (e.g., taxes, fees and other sources). A fiscal Gap, is a structural budget deficit over an extended period of time and not only includes the structural deficit at a given point in time but also the difference between promised future government commitments, such as health and retirement spending, and future planned or anticipated tax and other revenues. Another description is that the current revenue structure is insufficient to maintain services at the current level.

I truly enjoy mentoring others and understand the value in welcoming a mentor for myself. I find that I have been more successful in modifying this behavior in my professional life than in my personal life, which I continue to work on. • Knowledge base for this role. A Civic government role being a new endeavor for me, will require a rapid ramping up on knowledge_ i will need to learn the technical tools of the role to become more familiar and versed on code, while also expanding my understanding of the legislative and council meeting process and protocols, including Roberts Rules of Order. In addition, I will need to become familiar with the organizational structure of the administrative hierarchy the city departments. I have been participating and attending Council Meetings regularly in the past 1 years and have learned the basics but applying them to real life is next level. • Corn petitive to a fault with myself. As I fill out this application, I am questioning myself —am I crazy? I have had battles with self- doubt in the process but have not turned back. This is the last portion/item I am filling out, as a matter of fact, because I could not quite decide what to write. After completing the rest of the application, I realized the inner struggle that I experienced throughout, and mainly it was because of a voice in my head that was saying "Are you sure about this?" I imagine some applicants feel similarly_ I dug in deep to identify why that is and my conclusion is that I am highly competitive with myself. I do not lice to fail. In fact, it can he said that I will do whatever it takes to avoid failure. Good or had, that is the case. I know that I will work hard and do the work necessary to excel —it will not be immediate, obviously, but I will always be applying myself to learn more, gather information, and be the best in the role that I can be. Packet Pg. 60 2.4.a My top three strengths: Effective collaborator and team -builder. I enjoy and excel at supporting the coordination of multi -faceted organizational teams that are working toward a common goal. My experience in managing a diverse team of creative, technical, and financial work streams has developed my ability to manage cross -functional projects and build effective and happy teams. 1 believe this skillset would be an advantage for me while working in the multi -functional and cross -divisional atmosphere that Council operates within. Respectful dialogue, an open mind to different viewpoints and a collaborative energy are ways to move forward in an effective way and will serve the community well. ■ Balanced approach: Analytical and Creative I make data -informed decisions and balance them against higher level strategies to drive strategically balanced outcomes. I am both open-minded and critical in the consideration of input and data. I excel in balancing projects and strategies that entail both "science and art." When I say art, I mean open -spaced creative ideation that comes from a 30,040-'Foot perspective and could encompass consideration of broader impacts. • Customer -obsessed During my 27-year career at Nordstrom, we were hard -wired to be obsessed with our customers. As a merchant we were constantly studying the customer and seeking out feed back to understand their needs and purchasing priorities. I believe thiswould be of great use to me in the role of Councilperson with the community members atthe top of the Organizational Chart, and as such they are the customer to whom the Council answers. I feel that finding new methods of outreach to the community is an opportunity for our Council. To promote awareness, encourage engagement and gather community feedback, there needs to be a more targeted focus on new approaches for the Council_ Town Halt meetings, face-to-face discussion groups, and recurring outreach events that are specifically geared toward and occur within the sub -areas of Edmonds are perhaps some ways to hear from all areas and demographic groups of the community_ I am not in support of utilizing community representatives or weighting input from any select group in our community. We must instead find a way to gather the input across all demographics and sub -areas in a Constitutionally -sound way. Packet Pg. 61 2.4.a 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? Public Safety Ensuring the safety of the community, promoting a healthy and vibrant economic environment, and being responsible stewards of the land are, in my view, some of the top deliverables as a Councilmember. Ensuring the safety of the public is the bedrock on which the city is built and as such, I am a strong supporter of the Police Department and in enforcing the laws that ensure a Safe environment for the whole community. We have clearly seen a shift in the way our community feels about their personal safety since the legislative reforms passed in Olympia in the past year or two. While there was some opportunity to strengthen the accountability of Law Enforcement, the legislation went beyond the scope needed, in my opinion, and served to embolden criminals and reduce the ability of Law Enforcement to perform their jobs effectively, putting the law-abiding community at risk. Edmonds did not reduce their PD force, but crime rates and frequency have gone up as criminals have figured out that the laws are not as strict or even enforceable. I live close to the Hwy 99JI04 interchange only blocks from the new Police Department outpost in the Safeway shopping center, so I am personally aware of the recurring incidents in that shopping center. I recently witnessed a female dressed in scant boudoir -like clothing on the Hwy 99/220th intersection. She was under the influence of something and was standing on the Shoreline side, but this is a key entrance to our city, and it really concerned me. I support the idea of adding Police Officer personnel presence to the Hwy 99 outpost location. With the Hwy 99 revitalization project in flux, the Edmonds Police Department should have a presence to support the community where much of the crime occurs, while the Downtown presence remains unchanged. Public Safety also includes addressing the Drug Addiction and Homelessness issue. The safety of those who are suffering from addiction or housing insecurity homelessness deserve to live in safety as well_ I feel that a program that offers transitional housing but afso requires treatment for drug addiction and then participation in job training would be welcomed by our community. Edmonds is a compassionate community. Giving people the stability and the tools needed to reestablish their health and to be successfully self-reliant is as compassionate as it gets in my book. Lastly, the last few years of living through the pandemic have taken a huge toll on our youth. My daughter, who is now 20, was the first year of students who missed the important milestones (Prom, Graduation Ceremony, Grad Night) is still trying to recover from the massive disruption to her life -trajectory because cf the pandemic. The Opioid crisis in our country adds to the threat that the younger generations currently face. Deadly Fentanyl is flowing over our borders and being dispersed in counterfeit pills making it undetectable. Mental health issues such as depression and social anxiety have become commonplace. I feel that thisthreat falls under the Public Safety umbrella. A concerted Youth Awareness and Education on Opioid and Drug Addiction in Edmonds is needed. Using Edmonds' special Creative District designation could have a prong that is youth -focused to encourage artistic engagement and could work on s❑ many levels (more ideas on this during my interview, perhaps), to provide our youth with a destination for art therapy and self-expression, while enhancing the community and the economy. Packet Pg. 62 2.4.a • Managing housing growth and its impact on our Environment The newest GMA projects that Edmonds' population will be close to 56 mil} -ion by 2044, an increase of 13,000 people, and according to current projections, Edmonds is falling short of providing the additional housing needed by about 4,000 people. Edmonds has always met their growth goals and are currently on track to prior growth targets but this new GMA, which must be built into the Comp Plan and approved by council by the end of 2024, poses a real challenge for the city of Edmonds an several levels. For one, our stormwater infrastructure is at critical mass. we have aging stormwater pipes as well as investments needed toward existing stormwater management strategies that were executed in prior years and have now become liabilities, such as the ?errinville Creek Watershed and Talbot detention system. In addition, we share our stormwater management facilities with other neighboring cities and are at full capacity as it stands. How will Edmonds address the infrastructure shortfalls in stormwater and waste management while supporting the aggressive GMA goals for housing development AND be the best stewards of this beautiful land? Could we request "Small City" status to reduce the pressure of housing growth by the new GMA? i understand this would impact the transportation funding the city would receive, which seems to me to be an extortion -play, but the community could be asked how they feel about it, what their priorities are and whether this should be considered. The Edmonds Bowl is a critical land feature for the Puget Sound and the Edmonds Marsh, both of which are suffering because of our stormwater management issues. There are funds flowing from the Federal Government related to Green Causes/Climate Change. The council, by way of annual budgeting, can influence funds toward projects that will directly support Edmonds' unique environmental considerations. I believe that these funds could be leveraged more effectively than they were in 2021 when the City purchased an entire new fleet of electric cars in one year, rather than to divert a portion of the funds toward a broader marsh Strategy, which is currently a volunteer -driven endeavor. It was great to seethe Marsh project moved to the PROS plan to ensure more focus on rehabilitation. I have recently started to volunteer with Joe 5cordino in the marsh restoration and clean up. 1 had an opportunity to "pick his brain" and learned so much in just an hour. Joe is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Edmonds' unique land features, stormwater, creeks, and the negative impacts that all of this has on the Marsh, the viability of salmon, and the Puget Sound. I feel that we should be leveraging and enlisting those in our community that have such broad and historical knowledge when formulating a strategy to address growth and the environment. He knows, cares, and loves this city and that to me, is as useful to developing a great strategy than any outside consultant report. We are s❑ lucky to have Joe Scordino—he is truly a gem! Tree code has been improved, but do they effectively deter developers from removing trees? Trees are nature's stormwater processors, and yet we continue to allow more and more of them to be removed with new development projects while holding private property owners to the same rules, even though the playing field is not even {potentially stepping on their Packet Pg. 63 2.4.a Constitutional rights). Our codes require grading standards that I believe ultimately result in more trees than necessary to be removed by developers. It is estimated that one older, large tree can process 7000 gallons of storm water annually. Multiply that by 20 trees on one sub plat division project and we have lost the ability to process close to 140,000 gallons of stormwater per year, multiply that by 20 development projects, and now we have eliminated then at ura I ability to process 2.8 million gallons of stormwater per year! How can this be overlooked? We can, and likely are, trying to focus a large amount of the housing growth on the Hwy 99 corridor, but does zoning support the maximization of this idea? There are many development projects in play in the areas that are adjacent to the 99 corridor along the 104 where I have resided for the past 15 years. Noise levels and loss of ecosystems are already noticeable- it is alarming. Between now and 2044, we will need to house 13,000 more people in Edmonds, and to do so without destroying the land of which we are the stewards, we must take a holistic and carefully thought-out approach to all the connecting issues: housing, infrastructure, the environment. if we do not, the outcome will likely be disastrous. We talk about the need for "affordable housing" and yet we do not deliver this to the community in a meaningful way based on the current MTFE arrangements that ultimately shifts the tax bill to the community, adding more complexity to the development of an all - encompassing holistically grounded strategy. This is a multi -pronged issue, no doubt. But if we do not declare the vision and identify our "North Star" and just piecemeal this in a siloed fashion, we will have an impending environmental catastrophe. Would the Council creating an Annual Legislative Agenda clarify the vision for the community? A Comprehensive Plan and fiscally responsible budget that prioritizes infrastructure and environmental conservation investment. The Comprehensive Plan should be informed by all voices in our community and so, the outreach topic mentioned above is in play. Through the budgeting process, the council should require full presentation for the intended use of funds wherever there are ambiguities. A full and comprehensive data -informed presentations to the Council that proves the connective tissue between the various priorities should be required prior to approval to release the funds. If the project does not align directly with the over -arching goals, it should not be approved until it does. This is not easy work, but it is required to achieve the best outcomes. We should not have any slush fund line items in the budget- let us make every dollar count. An additional area of focus in the Comp Plan approval should be to ensure that Code are cleaned up. Without clearand accurate written code, the Council is not able to deliver on their promise of good governance to their constituency. The Council approved an FTE Code Writer years ago but have never hired into the role. We have many code issues that need to be addressed and the longer this is put off, the bigger the problem becomes and passing more laws based on inaccurately written existing codes is a recipe for disaster and can potentially expose the City to Packet Pg. 64 2.4.a liability. in addition, code related to zoning &development, particularly in the Downtown Business District must be fine-tuned. For example, to ensure that 6D2 Downtown Mixed Commercial properties are protected for intended use and not approved for BD4 development. 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? • To serve the community by being "community -obsessed" to address the concerns and priorities of those the Council represents and who sit at the top of the City's Organizational Chart. • To enhance the lives of the community, support stewardship of the land and environment, to pass fiscally responsible budgets and to defend the Constitution. • To act transparently, display integrity, and practice ethical behavior, consistently. Engaging in respectful discussion and debate that aligns with the Council's Code of Conduct and Ethics. To respect decorum and to derive effective solution. • To publicly acknowledge individual accountability when/if this mark is missed by a Councilmember. • Approving fiscally responsible budgets that are clear and transparent to the constituency and that address and align with a bigger over -arching strategy for the citythat are supported by the community. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? The role of a City Councilperson is very robust, and it requires more than 20 hours/week of commitment by Council Members which I appreciate. I recognize and value all the hard work and the time commitment each councitmernber delivers to the Edmonds community. I believe the Council cannot function effectively unless they have the confidence and trust of those they serve. Although current City Council has begun to re-establish the trust that was unfortunately damaged by previous Councilmembers, this process will take time and consistency. Regardless of which political party the mayor aligns with, the Council is the legislative body and with this important responsibility it must adhere to guardrails that will maintain a position of political neutrality, defend the Constitution, act in the best interest of the entire community, and address issues that fall within its purview. This, done with open dialogue, integrity and transparency will rebuild trust and create solid ground for the community and for Council to work from. I believe the greatest challenge our City Council faces is to focus on approaching their duties as a balanced legislative body that has meaningful debate, respect for one another, and to avoid grandstanding or making politicized statements that only serve to derail and divide the Conversation and community. This will require an individual commitment by each Councilmember as well as the Council as a group committing, to be successful. I believe this will lead to a more productive Council! Packet Pg. 65 2.4.a 7. Please add any additional comments First, i would like to respectfully acknowledge Councilmember Kristiana Johnson for her dedication and long service to the community of Edmonds, and her passing was an enormous loss to our city. She brought wisdom, dignity and respect to the role and really listened to her constituency. Kristiana was not afraid to push back and ask the tough questions, relying on her experience and strong ethical core to guide her. She showed grace under difficult situations and her leadership and natural kindness are deeply m issed. i would work every day to do honor to her legacy, if given the opportunity. I also want to share some background related to my strong support and passion for the arts. My love of theatre and performance art was nurtured by my parents. I grew up in a rural town in the state of mew York, about an hour from NYC, and my dad owned his own hairdressing salon in Manhattan. As kids, my siblings and I were fortunate to be exposed regularly to the buzzing energy of New York City and all that it offered. Broadway plays and musicals, amazing museums, and broad range of diverse viewpoints and expression. For much of my younger life, although I participated in synchronized swimming and modern dance, I always considered myself as a fly on the wall, just lucky to be in the presence of people who were much more talented than myself. I have always had a strong appreciation of the talents and creativity of others. When I graduated from college and took the job in the Money Market, i was feeling unsatisfied with my career -life and decided to pursue a buying job with Nordstrom where I had been buying my personal work attire at the lime. I started as a saiesperson, and I eventually worked my up to Buying role which I found a perfect balance of art & science. At that time in Nordstrom's timeline (1994) there were very few systems in place so to analyze sales and make decisions I would have to create the reports on my own, which I did_ I thrived in this very entrepreneurial atmosphere, eventually moved into the Private Label Division in 2009, where I really hit my stride. Working with and supporting creative individuals (designers) was my dream come true. I was still the sciencelart person, and they brought the creative magic. During that same time, my daughter was attending Madrona K-8 and I was trying to get her involved with the arts as she had shown promise and interest. I thought that theatre could he a great outlet for her so we started voiunteering behind the scenes to see if she would be interested. She loved the atmosphere and took on acting and Tech roles. When there was an opening for a costume designer at Madrona Children`s Theatre (MCT), 1 quietly whispered, "I might be able to give it a try?" and I was immediately confirmed in the role (because I was the only volunteer). Honestly, I was sick to my stomach —I had never done it before except for my own personal passion for Halloween, creating my own costumes— and I was experiencing huge self-doubt. I forged ahead and with the support of an amazing Director and Production Team, I successfully costumed fifty kids in two different casts of "5hrek." My work was met with very positive and kind responses from the Madrona community, and I was humbled. After 2 more years of costuming for MCT my daughter was already in High School, and It was time for me to pass the torch. I figured that I had had my "truly creative moment" and that my costume design experiences were over, until a former Producer at MCTapproached me to costume a play for the Driftwood Players. Repeat: sick-feei'ing, self-doubt, but I decided to meet with the Director, and I was given the opportunity to design costumes for "Peter & the Star Catcher." Another level completely, 1 learned as I went. Through hard work and a huge emotional investment beyond anything had ever experienced, it was a success! Since then, ! have costumed two additional musicals for Driftwood, have received regional recognition, and am currently costuming the Driftwood Players Packet Pg. 66 2.4.a production of the piay "The Mousetrap" for their Fall 2022 season opener on September 1-V' [shameless plug). The lesson for me is this: I have the same self-doubt and the sick -to -my -stomach feeling at times as I filled out this application, but I must trust my instincts —I feel compelled because I truly love Edmonds and want to serve. I am confident that I can do the work to educate myself to perform the very important and strenuous task of filling Council Position #1 because I am fully committed to Edmonds and its residents. 1 am excited, ready to take on this endeavor, and humbled by the opportunity to apply - Thank you for your time and consideration!

My volunteer experience has been focused primarily on empowering people with disabilities. I am passionate about advocating and giving voice to people with disabilities and finding a way for their stories to be told. In 2004 1 volunteered with the Public Broadcasting Service and was a Featured Personality in the Documentary, "Freedom Machines". This Documentary was about the personal freedom and independence found through assistive technology. You can view more information at http://freedommachines.com/. In 2005 1 was involved with George Lucas Educational Films. I acted as a consultant to George Lucas Educational Films Documentary "Assistive Technology: Enabling Dreams" which highlights the effect that alternative communication devices have on the lives of people with disabilities. 2. Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (please provide details) Although I have not served as an appointed official in the past, some of my recent work has prepared me for serving the public. Some recent work includes Americans with Disabilities Act Advisory Committee to the Fish and Wildlife Commission Region 4 and being the vice chair of the Washington State Ferry Accessibility Advisory Committee. While earning a Bachelor's in Communications from the University of Washington in 2002, 1 worked at the Disability Resources for Students office (DRS), and became a member of the UW faculty advisory committee on disability issues. As the student liaison to the department, I was able to help the committee succeed in developing a disability studies minor at the University. While earning a Master's in Organizational Leadership at Gonzaga University in 2006, 1 worked with the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR), Department of Developmental Disabilities, (DDD), Work Opportunities, Washington State Department of Transportation, ACLU, and Parkview Services which provides down payment assistance for people with disabilities. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? My greatest strengths are time management, goal setting, and project managment. I set priorities, meet deadlines, and manage multiple concurrent projects all with assistive technology. Packet Pg. 72 2.4.b My disability has encouraged me to creatively solve problems to meet my goals and accomplish incredible things. I would be excited to share these talents if I were to hold a position on the City Council. My greatest weaknesses are my lack of parliamentary procedure knowledge, my desire to accomplish and solve problems that need more complex answers, and my career balance with family. I am confident that being a lifelong learner helps me to continue to grow these areas that need strengthening as I develop my career in public service. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? I believe the three most important priorities for the City of Edmonds include; Improving walkability throughout Edmonds by updating sidewalks to give access to all individuals, guiding the conversation on homelessness and how to address these complex issues within our community, and giving a voice to all Edmonds residents so they feel represented. 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? My role is to represent all of Edmonds. This job requires me to hear and to represent everyone in matters pertaining to city business. This includes ordinances and finances. My role is to be as good at this position as I can, to cooperate as best as I can, and have the greatest understanding of the city business. Improving Edmonds to the best of my ability with the unique perspective of my life experiences 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? I believe the greatest challenge to our City Council is balancing the wants of the citizens while keeping a balanced budget. 7.

What is your volunteer experience? Pre-Covid my primary volunteer activity was coaching the Sherwood Chess Club, about 30 years. More recently, I am volunteering as a member of the Washington Public Works Board. 2. Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (please provide details) Yes. I have over two decades of experience as an elected commissioner at Olympic View Water & Sewer District, 1995 to present. I also have nearly a decade of experience as a Edmonds City Council member, elected, re-elected, and appointed. I have served in leadership roles including committee Chair, Council President pro -temp, and Council President. The Public Works Board position in which I am presently serving is appointed by the Governor. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? My greatest strengths as a Councilmember include experience, being present and prepared, and making decisions based on facts and community input. My greatest weakness are the same as the above strengths. A councilmember with experience, who is present, prepared, and willing to listen, is not a good "rubber stamp." Packet Pg. 80 2.4.c Petso, Lora 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? Public safety, finances, and environment. 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? Council should respectfully accept community input (in advance and without manipulation or prejudice), and provide policy direction to the Mayor's staff in accordance with that input and with the best interests of the City. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? Listening, and, Avoiding the trap of thinking this is a "game". The tactics have all been around for years, stall this, pop this on an agenda without warning, sneak this one through on consent, let's get a fake "survey" to support this, etc. Perhaps the worst game playing, however, is the "I have enough votes so I can ignore your input" attitude (please see Listening, above). The majority rules, but the minority should have a real voice, and be respected. 7. Please add any additional comments: With the comprehensive plan getting a look this year, the City has an opportunity to set us up for success. I believe that my background and experience will be very useful in comprehensive plan review.

What is your volunteer experience? As a youth and adult, I have volunteered with multiple organizations including: the Lions Club, National Parks Service, and CALPIRG. Within the past five years: • 1 have served as a Shop Steward for AFSME. • 1 have donated significant time in public advocacy to the City Council and Planning Board and participated in the 2022 Edmonds PROS plan as an Equity advocate. • 1 am a team captain and owner with the adult recreation league DiscNW, and • At the beginning of the pandemic, I donated time and materials to sew and donate approximately 75 cloth masks and surgical caps to the general public and medical professionals. 2. Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (please provide details) As a youth I have elected experience and held office with the Los Alegres 4-H club. As part of my adult work experience, I have been involved in several initiative -based and permanent committees. Within the past 5 years I have been a member of the Regional Road Maintenance Forum to coordinate compliance with the Endangered Species Act across Road Maintenance organizations. 3. What are there of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? I believe that I have several strengths that would benefit the Edmonds communities and Council. With regard to Council Position 1, my strengths include: • Background in environment and municipal organizations — I have significant experience working with local, state and federal agencies. I am skilled at analyzing the practical "on -the ground" impact of proposed regulations and advocated for better policy. This experience is a strength I would bring to council to contribute to policy outcomes. • Practical — I believe that there are multiple big challenges that Edmonds communities are currently navigating. Although the challenges are big, I believe that most change happens through resourcefulness and compromise. I hope to provide a balanced outlook that will allow the Council adopt as many efficient and effective budgets and polices as possible now to meet the existing and future needs of residents. • Equitable Governance — I believe government has a tremendous ability to provide public benefit and that all areas of Edmonds should be invested in. I can help bring underrepresented viewpoints to Council from young working families. I am an inquisitive problem -solver that is unafraid to recognize when systems are not working for Edmonds residents and work with diverse perspectives to find solutions. If appointed to Council, I believe my greatest areas of growth would be: • Availability — I have both professional and family commitments that would need to be balanced with Council service. • Perception as an advocate forSR99 — As an equity advocate, I have focused my comments to council on areas of Edmonds and that have not received investment in accordance with past and future growth. If selected, I will continue to look at the need of residents wholistically within the city, but will Packet Pg. 83 2.4.d Natalie Seitz Position #1 Application 17 August 2022 Supplemental Questions need to work especially hard to learn the issues important to certain communities like North Edmonds. Public communication — As a subject matter expert, I have grown tremendously in recent years in providing accessible communication to the public. I hope to expand my skills in communication to ensure vital information is conveyed to residents and create spaces where all audiences feel comfortable engaging in issues. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? If selected for the council appointment my top priorities would be: • Supporting cost effective investments and policy decisions. By 2050 the impacts from climate change will have a significant impact on the daily lives of Edmonds residents. Strategic and cost-effective infrastructure investment is needed now to provide for future generations. • Equity. All Edmonds residents deserve to receive the benefit of their tax dollars. I would focus on providing public benefit to all Edmonds residents. • Inclusive Civic Engagement. I would prioritize the development of language access and public outreach standards to promote awareness of vital resources and civic engagement opportunities to all Edmonds residents. S. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? Government can be encapsulated within three components: authorization, resources and public benefit. The council plays a key role in each of these components: authorization of plans and ordinances; adoption of budgets "resources", and provides oversight of public benefit that is executed by the administration. If selected I would see my individual role as a member of the larger council body within this framework and hope to work with the administration of provide effective solutions for Edmonds residents. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? The greatest short-term challenge for City Council is fostering a collaborative relationship with the city administration. 7. Please add any additional comments: All council members provide a tremendous amount of personal sacrifice for the betterment of Edmonds residents. This position provides a unique opportunity to understand the commitment needed while serving in a short-term capacity. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity provided by this position to see if it is a sustainable fit for my family for future public service opportunities.

Quality Output with Sustainability to repeat ii. Leadership: By promoting diversity and inclusion, as well as utilizing Emotional Intelligence (EI), I strive to build upon and provide support for team members' strengths, emotions, and needs iii. Philosophy of Continuous Improvement... Means that everything we do is a temporary process; temporary because it can and should be improved... it is the current (temporary) process until the next improvement is set in place b. Weaknesses i. Because of my Passion for my projects, I sometimes find it difficult to pass them on to my successor, when I am assigned the next project ii. Because of my philosophy of continuous improvement, some people might be offended, because they are happy with doing the same old way iii. Arthritis: I feel bad that I am unable to spend time playing catch and shooting hoops with my grandkids, like I was able to do with my own children 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? a. Protection and Safety of the community i. Court cases are almost half of what they were a couple of years ago, yet reported crime is escalating. So if you do the math, that means that crimes are going unprosecuted. b. Conservation of Natural Resources i. The attractiveness of Edmonds stems from the beauty of our beaches, parks and trails. Trash and debris left by visitors of these attractions is not only an eye -sore; but also a danger to wildlife, under water habitats, and our people. c. Responsible, balanced growth of business and residence i. As businesses and new residences are being introduced to our city, we need to also make sure that the city remains pristine and accessible. For example, parking is constrained; so by adding parking lots we could use shuttles to the ferries, beaches and Oldtown. This would reduce congestion and make the Old Town streets safer. 1 Packet Pg. 88 2.4.e Robert (Bob) Cram 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? a. The role of the City Council is to plan for the future of the city, follow the outlined processes to develop and update ordinances that will support, maintain, and nurture the quality of our city. b. My role on the City Council would be to serve my community by becoming an active liaison between the citizens of the City of Edmonds and the local government. c. My goal would be to represent those who want to preserve the friendly, attractive, diverse, and safe environment that makes Edmonds such a great city by bringing council members closer together, rather than further apart. Therefore, I would promote a more non -partisan form of City Council government. 5. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? a. I truly believe that the greatest challenge to the City of Council is to be steadfast in preserving greatness and beauty of what we have and have had, in the City of Edmonds over the years. A City Council that begins to lose track on their responsibility of making a better future will result in deteriation in their city, such as what we see in so many cities; Seattle, San Francisco, Loa Angeles, Chicago, New York, and on and on... 7. Please add any additional comments: a. I am extremely appreciative and grateful for the 43 years I have lived in Edmonds. I have wanted to become more involved with local government for some time; but I wasn't able to fully commit to the weekly evening and even day -time meeting commitment. Now that my kids have moved on, I am finally at a place in my life where I can pledge to fully commit to the responsibilities involved with serving on the Edmonds City Council. b. If appointed to the open seat I would join other City Council members in being proactive to concerns of our community by meeting with the sectors on a regular basis to know what is working well, and what is not meeting the expectations of our community. c. I would also take an active role in looking at all sides of each of the decision that I would be responsible to vote on. d. Education: i. Edmonds Community College AA Degree ii.

I would like to emphasize my interest in this position with this brief letter in which I can introduce myself to the Edmonds City Council members. I feel that I am very qualified and would be a great addition to the City Council. I have lived in Edmonds for 43 years and I have a deep passion and appreciation for this beautiful city. I have always been very involved in the community, and now I would like to take a greater step by becoming a City Council member. Some of my activities include volunteering for various causes such as ministering to the sick and homebound, feeding the homeless, and working in the Cold - Shelters for the homeless, teaching Sunday School, and coaching the youth. Now that my kids have grown, I am ready and willing to take on more of a role and commitment in the city government; a role in which I believe I can make an impact on preserving and improving the City of Edmonds. Growing up in Lynnwood, and then moving to Edmonds I feel that this is a very special place, yet many cities have gone in a direction that is compromising their safety and charm. You as City Council members have done a great job maintaining the safety, charm and beauty of Edmonds. If I were selected to become a member of the City Council, I would also take a role to continue to make decisions that would preserve, safety, our natural resources, and the wonderful diverse atmosphere of Edmonds. My career has spanned 46 years in business, with over 11 years as an engineer and over 30 years as a Director of Operations. I have Project Managed hundreds of projects, including the building of a manufacturing plant. My experience in business provides me with the skills to deal with situations responsibly, such as would be necessary as a City Council member. I look deeply at all sides of the issues and involve the subject matter experts in my decision making. Please know that I am willing and able to immediately step into this role and proudly represent the people of our great City of Edmonds.

Previous Governmental Experience City of Lake Forest Park City Council (January 1998-December 2005) Mayor of Lake Forest Park — Elected (January 2012-December 2015) 3. Strengths and Weaknesses Strengths Dedication to Public Service — I have a passion for doing what is right for the community and putting in the time it takes to make meaningful contributions towards the Council goals. Active Listener_— I am respectful and actively listen to others with differing points of view from colleagues, before making decisions. Packet Pg. 92 2.4.f Mary Jane Goss — Supplemental Questions - Position 7 Team Play — As one of seven members, I understand that for the Council to accomplish its goals, subordinating my interests may be necessary to move forward to fill this vacancy. I am willing to serve in areas where there are gaps that need to be filled to advance the Council goals. Weaknesses I struggle with personalities who follow political ideologies that stray from middle-of- the-road approaches because local municipal government is meant to be non -partisan. When working together with personalities of this nature, I have learned to actively listen and work towards finding common ground. I sometimes underestimate whether I am speaking loudly enough because I have a soft voice. As a result, I must constantly remind myself to project my voice when speaking in public. I am always working to speak in a manner that is needed for all to hear. I have learned to take advantage of resources that help me improve and overcome this weakness such as voice coaching. I sometimes have difficulty finding a healthy work -life balance because there is so much work to do. When finding myself in situations where there is not enough time, I make lists to focus on the work at hand and plan out how to approach completing the work. I've learned that getting enough sleep is necessary for a positive outlook to support the enthusiasm needed for this position. 4. My 3 Top Priorities — During my time in elected office my areas of focus center on ensuring that the public's money is well spent, supporting safe transportation corridor improvements, and protecting single-family housing that city residents want as well as to address the needs of other areas with multifamily housing, and businesses. 5. What is the Council's role in the Community — An excellent explanation of the Council's role is found on the City of Edmonds website, "The City Council adopts the City budget, establishes law and policy, approves appropriations and contracts, levies taxes, and grants franchises. Councilmembers also represent the City on boards and commissions and to other organizations." 6. Greatest Challenge for Edmonds City Council — The Council's challenge I see is a common one, that is solved with teamwork. The issue is long Council meetings lasting more than 2 hours. Successful government and business entities do exist that manage to limit business meetings within a 2-hour framework. City Council meeting ending no later than 9 PM is possible with teamwork between the administration and City Council to commit to this goal will require ongoing communication. A project document and timeline that details the plan to accomplish the workplan prepared by the administration Packet Pg. 93 2.4.f Mary Jane Goss — Supplemental Questions - Position 7 and approved by the City Council is necessary, along with a commitment from each and every participant involved in the meeting to come to the meeting prepared to discuss and make decisions when needed. 7. I look forward to speaking with you and answering any questions you might have. Thank you for your time and consideration. Packet Pg. 94 2.4.f Cover Letter Honorable Councilmembers: I am excited at the possibility of serving the public once again. My background is in Real Estate. I am a Washington native, with family roots dating back prior to Washington statehood. My volunteer background is varied throughout my life as I enjoy helping where I can, including in parent -teacher associations, community associations, and real estate associations. There is a gap in my volunteering from 2016 — 2020 due to helping to care for an aging elderly parent in the family residence stretching the limit of my available hours because it also occurred at a time when I completed earning a master's degree in Public Administration. My background in public service extends over 12 years at the City of Lake Forest Park. (8 years as City Council member, 4 years as Mayor.) I am interested in serving because I have the willingness and capacity to serve, along with relevant experience and education in how to serve. I have kept myself informed on City of Edmonds issues over the years because of joint ownership of property now serving as my primary residence. Previously, a family member lived in the house, and so I have knowledge of Edmonds City issues from a different perspective besides being a resident. I spoke to many people during the last election. I watched a few of the City Council meetings to become an informed voter. During my real estate career, I engaged with the Seattle -King County Association of Realtors over the years becoming informed in growth management directives affecting the Real Estate industry. I believe my experience, background, and practical knowledge are relevant to serving on Edmonds City Council. I greatly appreciate and thank you for your dedication, time, and effort in serving on the City of Edmonds City Council. I look forward to meeting and talking with all of you.

I think that greatest diplomacy is necessary in politics because the only way to really weaknesses? accomplish anything is to be able to compromise and work with those whom you do not agree with 100% of the time. I would bring a spirit of bipartisanship, respect, and cooperation to my service on council. I would prioritize my duty as a public servant over my personal feelings towards other Council members or members of city government. 2) Creativity: In my work, I am constantly looking for novel solutions to my client's problems, be it by new technology or new ways of doing business that will help my clients achieve their goals. I think that this is an important trait to bring to council work because council is often tasked with achieving the city's wants and needs while using taxpayer money effectively. While consultants often propose costly and time-consuming solutions to our challenges, I think that the creativity and human capital of our city can be utilized to find more cost-effective avenues to addressing our endeavors. a Packet Pg. 99 2.4.g 3) Professional background as an attorney and a small business owner: As an attorney, I am trained to think critically and communicate solutions to problems effectively on behalf of my clients. As a council member, I will bring this skillset to my work for the city, in additional to my budget -management skills as a small business owner who needs to keep operational costs to a minimum in order to attain a profit. Weaknesses: 1) Strong convictions: Although I try to listen to all viewpoints and regard all perspectives fairly, there are some beliefs that I hold which I cling too rather stubbornly, such as my conviction that emergency housing is a human right, everyone in our society should have access to the social safety net, and that our government has a responsibility to address humanitarian crises in our region, like our homelessness epidemic. Perhaps this is a "weakness" because I might be viewed as inflexible by some people who disagree with me on core, moral issues. 2) Adverse to confrontation: I genuinely try to get along with everyone and I usually avoid direct and personal confrontations. As an attorney, I rigorously represent my views and advocate for my positions, but I avoid personal confrontation and can sometimes seem to be "playing both sides" because I value dialogue and good relationships with people across the political spectrum, regardless of whether we agree or disagree at the end of the day. 3) Rationality above emotional instincts: I try to suspend my emotional responses to challenges and respond rationally to any issues that come up as I pursue my objectives. I think that this means I am sometimes viewed as "disloyal" or "uncaring" because I try to take a holistic, system view of problems rather than relying on a gut reaction of "good" or "bad." I also try to disavow any sort of tribalism and try not to preference people whom I'm personally acquainted with over strangers or people who belong to a different group or affiliation than me in my work. Packet Pg. 100 2.4.g 4) What would be your top three 1) Affordability for residents: One of my grave concerns is that, as priorities for our cost of living, property and sales taxes, and utility fees continue city? to rise in the City of Edmonds, middle class families will soon find themselves priced out of the area and be forced to move. As our demographics continue to change and our population expand, my top priority will be to make sure that Edmonds is as economically inclusive and diverse as possible. My hope is that we can find solutions to keep seniors in their homes and provide affordable housing to young families and other middle/working class members of our community. 2) Environmental preservation: A large part of what makes Edmonds beautiful and a desirable place to live is our natural beauty. I believe that we must preserve our mature tree canopy and natural green spaces before they are swallowed up by development. This will take political courage from City Council, to resist the big developers who want to erect luxury condo buildings and bulldoze our neighborhoods for generic construction. We must preserve our waterfront from excessive development and the character of our residential neighborhoods from encroaching urban sprawl. I don't want to see Edmonds subsumed by Seattle's gentrification, which is already happening in neighboring communities like Shoreline and Lynnwood. We have to preserve our unique character and charm as much as possible. 3) Inclusion: I want to make sure that Edmonds includes all of its residents in the political process, particularly the minority communities that largely inhabit the Highway 99 corridor. While the Bowl is very well represented in the political priorities of City Council, the voice and perspectives of our international business community and other businesses on Highway 99 often seem overlooked. As I grew up in this area of Edmonds, I will strive to bring this part of the city into the process and make residents in my corner of Edmonds feel heard and respected. 5) What do you see I think that our City Council has important symbolic and practical as yours and the functions to play in Edmonds. First of all, our City Council Council's role in represents our chosen leaders, and should reflect the diversity our community? of the community that it represents. This means not only ethnic a Packet Pg. 101 2.4.g diversity, but also geographic diversity as well. People from all parts of Edmonds should be able to look to our council members and see people whom they feel listen to and understand their perspectives. Secondly, I think it is very important that our City Council provide leadership to address our community's concerns and challenges. Such as the homelessness crisis. We have a new population moving into Edmonds from surrounding areas that is underserved and in dire need of government services that the state and county governments have failed to provide to them. Even though we didn't cause this problem, our municipal government will now have to help reach a solution. Thirdly, city government acts as a guardian for Edmonds' people and our culture and traditions. The city government must rigorously protect the character of our town as we experience growth and development. We do not want Edmonds to turn into a generic, overdeveloped suburb with big box stores and too few parks. It is up to City Council to safeguard Edmonds to ensure that our little town isn't unrecognizable in 25 years. 5] What do you Having observed our City Council for multiple years, I think that believe to be the our Council's greatest challenge in 2020 will be integrating its greatest new members and finding a way to work productively with the challenge for our rest of city government. I think that our Council is made up of City Council? many good, hardworking, and intelligent members, but that interpersonal conflicts sometimes arise due to the strong personalities that clash occasionally. As the Council faces substantive challenges, like homelessness and the affordable housing crisis, my hope is that the Council members will be able to build a strong working relationship and put the people of Edmonds first. 7) Please add any While there are many strong applicants for Position 1, I think additional that what sets me apart is my commitment to work with all sides comments: of the political spectrum and treat everyone fairly, regardless of whether we agree or disagree on a particular issue. I believe that the ability to compromise and reach bipartisan solutions is key to achieving our common goals to keep Edmonds a beautiful and charming small town. I hope that you will agree that someone like me, who values diplomacy and respect towards others, a Packet Pg. 102 2.4.g would be an asset for the Council.

It is a volunteer organization started in 2004 that supports responsible development that respects and complements the character of our small city on the shores of Puget Sound We attempt to provide citizens with accurate information about land use activities and actions that allow them to distinguish between fact and rhetoric so they can make informed decisions and provide relevant input to our elected leaders. Finally, we promote preservation of the natural environment of the City of Edmonds — its streams, trees, beaches, parks, and open space. 2. Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (please provide details) While not previously having applied for or served as an elected or appointed official, I have participated in all types of City meetings over the last 5 years as an active community citizen advocate. You have seen me attend full Council meetings for years and heard me speak on a variety of city issues and at a variety of public hearings. As an example, I actively take the time to review extended agendas, agenda packets, prepare citizen comments, speak with and email elected officials and volunteer citizen members of these Boards and Commissions, attend special meetings, Council retreats, as well as the Citizen Housing Commission, Climate Action Plan, Reimagining Neighborhoods and Streets meetings and events. In my volunteer position on the Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds Board of Directors, I spend many hours attending or watching City Council, Planning Board, Economic Development Commission, Architectural Design Board, and numerous other city meetings to gain a broad overview of current issues that relate to our mission. I am responsible for developing agendas Packet Pg. 107 2022 Edmonds City Council Appointment — Position #1 Application from Michelle Dotsch 2.4.h for our monthly meetings with the Board, running our monthly general membership meetings, as well as researching, speaking, and writing letters and articles to inform citizens about these pertinent issues and encourage broader citizen participation in these processes. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? Three of my greatest strengths: 1. I was born and raised in Edmonds, attending local schools until I went away to college and dental school at the University of Washington. I always wanted to come back here after obtaining my professional degree. My husband and I have lived in Edmonds, in the same general neighborhood I grew up in, for 22 years now. I have a passion for Edmonds and a desire to give back to this great community that gave me such a wonderful childhood. Now, as an adult, I cherish all that Edmonds has to offer as it grows and flourishes into a highly desirable, diverse community. 2. 1 can take a holistic framework view of an issue or challenge, then am able to drill down into the pertinent facts and resources. This process includes a desire to have a discussion with those who are directly impacted or involved in the outcome. In my dental career, if there was something that I did not understand or had never seen before, I immediately looked to find out the answers to provide a more comprehensive diagnosis and treatment options for my patients. I took over 400 hours of continuing dental education on a broad range of topics after I graduated from dental school. 3. 1 ran my own dental practice and small business in Shoreline, a block from Highway 99, for almost 25 years, including managing a variety of diverse team members and patients. My business management skills include being able to listen, learn and teach new skills. I also actively encourage and mirror healthy teamwork and have the ability to sensitively manage potential conflicts. Three of my greatest weaknesses: 1. There are times I try to do too much by taking on too many roles and responsibilities. 2. 1 can store vast amounts of information in my head and sometimes wait a bit to get it down on paper because I rely on simply recalling it. This can lead to me sometimes speaking with others as if they already have that same information, which they may not. 3. 1 am told sometimes I can be too detailed. This can be a weakness but also at times a strength. Packet Pg. 108 2.4.h 2022 Edmonds City Council Appointment — Position #1 Application from Michelle Dotsch 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? 1. Encourage a holistic view of information and processes. Eliminate departments or volunteer boards and commissions working in silos, where they may become limited and even ineffective in achieving their desired goals. Even discussion of plans and issues suffer when they are discussed in silos. This would also bring better transparency and community trust. Most importantly, the city needs to begin the process of updating the Edmonds city code, which currently is confusing. As is, it creates excess work and time for those trying to interpret and implement it. 2. The 2024 Comprehensive Plan update process; I advocate mindfully keeping a holistic framework as all parts intertwine. Part of this is getting as much public participation by local citizens, businesses, property owners and residents alike. It is very important to keep it a locally driven process. 3. Focus on the environmental impacts of new development, including infrastructure, livability and keep the benefits in mind of preserving our marsh, parks, green space and wildlife. As an example, Edmonds had to close our beaches on Jan. 4t" this year dues to an overflow of damaging wastewater into Puget Sound. The city and the public should be aware of what the limits on our aging infrastructure are. While we have a good plan to update it every year, the city should be transparent as to what our infrastructure can realistically handle. Our new wastewater treatment plant will be close to maximum capacity when it opens on day one. We need to consider what that mean for future development and planning. S. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? #1 is to listen, trust but verify, ask questions and create transparency in city government processes. #2 is to represent the entire community of Edmonds. This role suits me well: growing up here, knowing many people who still live here, living here as an adult for 22 years, speaking with residents at numerous events and other meetings, and now in my work with a diverse group of local ACE members, I have the ability to bring different people together and be responsible for and responsive to all Edmonds' citizens. #3 is to do my homework to be well -prepared for all meetings and presentations. #4 is to oversee the effectiveness and implementation of the programs, ordinances and processes that the Council passes. As an example, Council will pass something, and people wonder what happened to it or it gets lost or forgotten and must be brought back or redone. It Packet Pg. 109 2.4.h 2022 Edmonds City Council Appointment — Position #1 Application from Michelle Dotsch is better for everyone, both in government for citizens, to have improved efficiency and oversight. #5 is to review and approve the annual budget. Keep short and long-term priorities in mind, with the basics being to run our city safely and be fiscally responsible to our taxpayers. #6 is to attend and review other committee and board meetings to keep current on their important work and discussions. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? I believe the greatest challenge is taking in the citizen input and administration/staff information, along with fellow Councilmembers input, to make clear choices based on all input provided. Council must do this while framing decisions, long and short-term objectives, and priorities in a system framework rather than in the silo approach of each decision or project. Councilmembers work hard and should remain responsible and responsive to the citizens and residents of Edmonds. Primary in my mind is that, as a Councilmember, I am responsible for and will be responsive to the citizens and residents of Edmonds. Inclusive of this is making sure Council meetings stay focused on the basics of running our city and keeping that first in mind. Meetings should be run efficiently, clearly presenting complete information for decisions being made, and be transparent about balancing our needs versus wa nts. 7. Please add any additional comments: I understand the time to be ready for this City Council position is on Day One. I recognize the importance of having current knowledge of what has been going on this year so far, the necessary time commitment and hard work that is required to participate in council business for the rest of this year and all of 2023, and into the future. I keep abreast of a wide variety of city and community issues in Edmonds, not just housing and zoning. I am well -versed on most of what will be presented for the 2023 budget that is starting now. I can be engaged and participate fully right away where others may struggle with the wide range of topics and decisions to be made immediately for our constituents.

Question: What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? Response: At this current juncture, managing budgetary demands with an ever-growing need of public services and meeting the needs of a changing demographic while preserving the Edmonds character. Additional Comments: I grew up in a small town similar in size and character to Edmonds and was able to see first-hand how uncontrolled growth can destroy the character and livability of a city. I think having empathy for both long-term Edmonds citizens who want to preserve the size and character of the City and newer Edmonds citizens who want to see the City progress requires finding creative solutions and striking a balance where both can prosper and still allow the City to thrive. I believe this understanding with the citizens is paramount to the Edmonds City Council's success in the community.

I was a member of the citizen committee that helped design the recently -unveiled Welcome sign on 5th Avenue at Edmonds Way. In Seattle, I was a community activist for three decades, including service as president of the Wallingford Community Council and of the North Beacon Hill Council. On Beacon Hill, I lead a city -funded neighborhood planning project, one that successfully engaged a cross-section of people in that very diverse community. I remember one city official remarking to me how our public meetings were so much more diverse than the city's public meetings in our neighborhood. Our North Beacon Hill planning project became one of the models for mayor Norm Rice's neighborhood planning initiative, and his planning for "urban villages." Service as an elected or appointed official: In Edmonds, mayor Earling appointed me to the Planning Board. My colleagues elected me vice chair for this year.. In Seattle, mayor Wes Uhlman appointed me to the Charter Review Committee, whose mission was to develop and propose amendments to the WW2 -era weak -mayor city charter. I am a former Precinct Committee Officer (Democrat). Strengths and weaknesses: My strengths include a passion for our work in city government. As a student of political science, my focus has always been on local government- the level of government closest to the people. This work may seem boring to some, but it's important that we work hard to get things right. Edmonds' future depends on it. I'm fundamentally a happy person, and I bring positive energy to the table. I enjoy discussing and debating matters of public policy, and I stay focused on the issues and not the personalities. My experience includes working with groups of people from different ethnic and economic backgrounds. These often include people reluctant to speak, folks who may feel intimidated or somehow diminished by the discussion. I always make it a practice to ask, to encourage the reluctant ones to talk with us, how their words are important to the work of the group. My weaknesses include I've been a part of the Edmonds community only six years. make up for that by absorbing as much as I can from people with longer experience in Edmonds and with good memories. Packet Pg. 119 In my retirement, without professional responsibilities to manage, my focus can get diverted to new things before finishing current projects. I'm a late adopter of new technologies, even when they could be helpful to me. I was the last person in my group to give up my flip phone for a smart phone. Top 3 priorities for Edmonds: First, let's work on creating a culture of what I call One Edmonds. The City of Edmonds is more than just the Bowl; we're not just the Bowl and everywhere else. When we're working the budget, let's always be thinking city-wide, bringing an equitable distribution of facilities and services to our citizens. Second is improving civic engagement, what I like to call advancing the civic conversation. This includes outreach and inclusion of voices we don't hear enough of, especially people of color and with lower incomes. Third is the development of our new Comprehensive Plan. This should be a roadmap of the way forward for the City of Edmonds. It should be as close as possible to a community consensus. And it should be a living document that influences decision - making, not a dusty volume lost on a shelf in City Hall. Roles in the community: City Council is the legislative authority in city government, and as such it is the voice of the people. City council decision -making should be influenced by what the people of Edmonds would decide if they had access to all the information that we do. As to my role, I'll be accessible and responsive to our constituents. I'll respond to phone calls and emails quickly and with candor. I enjoy talking public policy with people, whether I agree with them or not. Greatest challenge: My sense is the greatest challenge facing City Council may be improving interpersonal relations on the dais. All relationships among our elected officials should be professional and cordial, even friendly. We're all working towards the same ends— responding to the inputs and needs of our fellow citizens, and making Edmonds a better place to live, work, play, and do business. Packet Pg. 120 Dear City Council friends, With a heavy heart, I'm submitting my application to fill the vacancy created by the sad and untimely death of our friend Kristiana Johnson. At the end of the process to fill the last vacancy appointment, councilmembers asked us, the other applicants to stay involved in Edmonds city government. That I have done. In addition to my service on Planning Board, I've followed the work of this council closely. I've attended many if not most of your meetings. I've attended your retreats and your training sessions, even your monthly committee meetings. It's a cliche to say a well -prepared candidate can "hit the ground running," and that might apply in my case, but I believe a better assessment may simply be that my learning curve could be short. There are a couple of areas where I could add strength to this council, on planning and transportation matters, and also on civic engagement. I try to cover those in this application packet. I look forward to discussing my capabilities in an interview. Thank you -Roger Pence - Packet Pg. 121 2.4.j Roger Pence, Resume Highlights Military Service During the Vietnam War, I was an Army sergeant serving a 3-year tour of duty in the Pentagon. I was a communications center specialist in the headquarters of the Special Security Group, an ultra -secure world-wide communications network. We handled top secret codeword documents and Eyes Only messages for Army officers of the highest ranks. This was a 24/7/365 operation, and I was the NCOIC during overnight hours. Education I earned a BA in Political Science at the University of Washington, with areas of minor concentration in economics and urban planning. I also did a couple years at the Seattle University Institute of Public Service, mostly classes in public administration and project management (no degree). Seattle Metro For seven years, I was transit planner working on service development (bus route planning) and capital projects. I was the project manager for the site selection and preliminary design phases of the original Bellevue Transit Center. In those days, transit planners did their own community outreach work, communicating with transit riders and project neighbors to identify and solve problems. Sound Transit I did community engagement work during the design and construction phases of the Link light rail project. I worked the segments in SODO, SE Seattle, and Tukwila. This was an enormous project with huge impacts on local communities, and successful community involvement work was essential to allow the project to move forward successfully. After 12 years of service, I retired in 2013.

(LinkedIn resume) Hello, My name is Jessie Upp and I've been an Edmonds resident since 2009. I'm a mother of a 23 year old daughter and a 16 year old son. I grew up in the Skagit Valley, pursued a Bachelors in Communications and Educational Technology in Western Washington University, and hold a Masters in Leadership from the Center of Creative Change from Antioch University in Seattle. My passion for Edmonds sustainable living led me to a city official suggesting I run for this position. I'm intrigued to learn how this position can support the current and future needs of our community. 1. What is your volunteer experience? 2004-Present volunteer experience includes: Trainer Crisis Phone Worker for Crisis Connections; Speaker for Dispute Resolution Center of King County; Coach for Landmark Education; Mediator for Peace Council 2.

(please provide details) No, though I lead global committees at Amazon that support sustainable goals. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? Strengths: As a systematic thinker seeking to sustain or improve quality of life for myself and others, I apply this strength at work with global teams, with my family, and in my business and volunteer experiences. Weaknesses: Though I maintain great pride in using a diverse skill set, I occasionally take on the "superwoman" challenge and find myself trying to spin 5 plates on 4 sticks. Having a solid team to work with often provides the solution to problems on a project. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? Supporting the needs of residents; Helping build toward a sustainable future; Strengthening our community financial and ecological weaknesses 5.

What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? Diverse representation of community, including ethnicity and age. 7. Additional comments: I love Edmonds and finally bought my dream home around 5 corners about 4 years ago. I make my living with a tech company, but also have owned my own business as a consultant. I feel blessed because of how far I've come in life and want to help others do the same. Serving on the city's council may help me give back to the community that provided and continues to provide back to me.

My volunteer experience is mostly centered around my children's activities. I have 2 school aged children and have routinely volunteered in their school and sports programs. Pre -pandemic I was a volunteer art docent at Seaview Elementary, planning and instructing art lessons with students. I have also held weekly volunteer positions to work with students in advanced math groups at Seaview Elementary. The pandemic impacted my ability to volunteer, I am hopeful to be back in the classroom, this upcoming school year. I have also volunteered coaching softball with Pacific Little League in the past. 2.Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? I have never served as an elected official or on a public board. 3.What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? I think my greatest strength is my resilience and resourcefulness. I list these as one strength because resiliency without being resourceful will cause you to spin your wheels and burn out. I don't give up, but at the same time I research, network, ask effective questions, and work through problems. I am not deterred easily and can stay focused on the task even when presented with roadblocks and adversity. I often tell my kids, "You can accomplish anything you want in life if you are resilient and resourceful." Another strength I have is effective communication. I currently work in construction, specializing in environmental remediation. This requires collaboration with city officials, engineers, environmental consultants, regulatory agencies, field crew, etc. I listen to understand different perspectives and communicate uniquely with each. I have learned that sometimes the best approach to effective communication is to change my communication style and ask the right questions to understand the other point of view, or information that may be new. In addition to having thoughtful in -person discussions, my written communications are concise and accessible for most readers. Finally, I would say I am a natural leader. For the past 12 years I have been the owner and manager of a successful small business. I lead with empathy, encouragement, and a positive outlook on life. I believe that a good leader can recognize the strengths and weaknesses of others and figure out the best way to utilize those skills and support the areas that need help. As for my weaknesses, I think one would be my lack of experience in politics or as a board member. This would be a new role for me, but I am adaptable and learn quickly. Along those same lines, I think it would be a new experience for me to have issues and discussions that are not resolved quickly. In construction we move fast, and often I am tasked with being the decision -maker; this role would challenge me to have more patience as we work through the decision -making process with community and professional input. Lastly, I think a weakness of mine would be lack of experience outside of Edmonds. I grew up here and have worked for my family's business for the past 20 years. While that has provided me with awesome opportunities and a lot of life experience, it has been limited to our community and the professional community I am familiar with. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? I think my biggest priority currently for Edmonds is infrastructure planning. I understand the challenges associated with changing regulatory goals and sometimes conflicting project objectives. While I am not an engineer, my experience in public contracting could provide a unique perspective to project evaluation. Packet Pg. 130 Lauren Golembiewski City Council Position No. 1 Answers to Supplemental Questions 8/17/2022 I also would rank community safety as a high priority for Edmonds. The recent gang -violence related to Edmonds School District students is concerning, and while most of these acts of violence have taken place in Lynnwood it is of great concern for Edmonds residents. I'm not sure of the solution to this problem, but I do think the City Council needs to be involved. Finally, I think that the City of Edmonds needs to make sure to provide equitable resources and opportunities for the neighborhoods outside the downtown area. These neighborhoods are seeing the greatest population increases and the need for affordable housing, transportation, and business development in these areas is very important. 5.What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? I think the City Council's role is to make decisions that are in the best interests of the community. They can do this by relying on experts at City Hall, outside consultants, as well as their own research and connection with the community. I think my role as a Council Member would be to consider all information presented and develop a decision that is objective and considerate. I also think that council members serve as a conduit to the community and should take an active role in community engagement and education. 6.What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? I think currently the biggest challenge the council faces is the 111h-hour community involvement. I have seen multiple issues get to a final vote in recent years and suddenly there are hundreds of people speaking up in opposition to the proposed action. I don't think the solution to this is quiet decision making, but rather earlier public education and involvement. I hate to see how hard City employees and council members have worked on initiatives (not to mention budget spent) to have them derailed. I am seeing the city take a more proactive approach with community engagement meetings for planned projects and I think that is great and will hopefully help this issue in the future. 7.Please add any additional comments: I just want to add how much I love our city. It is a very special place and I would be honored to be a part of its continued growth and development. Packet Pg. 131 2.4.m Lauren Golembiewski Edmonds, Washington 98020 August 17, 2022 Edmonds City Council 121 5th Avenue North, Edmonds WA 98020 Dear City Council, It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application for Council Position #1. Enclosed you will find my professional resume and application. I think this is a unique opportunity for someone to be involved in local government without the pressure of running an election unexperienced and could inspire some newcomers to the council such as myself. I have lived in Edmonds almost all my life: I went to Seaview Elementary, where my kids also have both attended, and then Meadowdale Middle and High School. I moved away to purchase my first townhome in Everett at age 19 but knew that I wanted to move back into Edmonds to raise my family. My husband, our 2 children and 2 goldendoodles currently live in the Seaview neighborhood I own and operate a small business that specializes in environmental remediation and civil construction. I am currently working on moving my business into the City of Edmonds by developing a parcel on 212th for a new office. My experience as a small business owner, and as a woman in construction has provided me with experience in many different disciplines. I have become a Jill -Of - All -Trades, if you will, and think that I could be a useful member of the council.

Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (Please provide details) Currently appointed to the Edmonds Citizens Tree Board and serve as the Chair. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? Strengths: Technical Competency: As an environmental engineer I excel (and enjoy) assessing and interpreting large quantities of information and data and have a strong ability to garner understanding of complex processes quickly. This goes for all sorts of data including environmental variables, budgets, construction plans and community input. As an Environmental Engineer for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) I was on design teams performing environmental impact analysis for complex air space procedure changes. This required modeling and analysis of a multitude of variables including a variety of aircraft in various configurations in time and space to evaluate effects of noise and emission impacts to residents and environmentally sensitive areas. This strength provides me the ability to then help groups of stake holders understand impacts and work towards collaborative solutions. Compassion and Open mindedness: As small business owner in the wellness industry, I interact with a variety of clientele who struggle with mental health and neurocognitive issues such as dementia, autism and brain injury. Keeping an open mind and having compassion for those with different abilities and neurodiversity is essential to helping people improve their health. My business and volunteer activities are focused on caring for others and listening very closely to people. This strength has also helped me develop relationships and connections with everyone that I meet outside of work and in our community. Courage to do the right thing: Sometimes doing what is right isn't popular and may make you stand out in a group. As the environmental engineer on an FAA team redesigning airspace and procedures in the Las Vegas area, I stood up to a room full of air traffic managers, union reps, airline tech pilots and county airport leads to explain that they needed to consider amending flight paths over the Grand Canyon per a long-standing agreement between the Department of Transportation and the National Parks Department. In this situation, I was a lone voice and some air traffic controllers literally walked out of the room. By bringing the design team together with other stakeholders including Tribal Nation Leaders, the Parks Department, US Fish and Wild Life and residents, we were able to achieve mutual understanding and work together. The end result was an immense success with reduction of flights over the Grand Canyon by 100 per day and zero flights over Zion Packet Pg. 135 2.4.n Janelle Cass Edmonds City Council Position 7 Appointment Application Supplemental Questions National Park. It took courage to voice an unpopular idea, but with hard work and collaboration, in the end the team was extremely proud of how we achieved both airspace efficiency, improved safety and reduced noise over our national treasures. Weaknesses: Getting a into the weeds: Because I am so data driven, I tend to want as much information as possible about an issue to ensure full and complete understanding. This can in turn take a lot of time. I have been working on taking pauses to reassess scopes of projects and how much information do I really need before making decisions. Self -Sacrificing: As someone who helps people struggling with often debilitating conditions and trauma, I can take that emotional weight to heart and home with me. Working with other wellness providers, I have been learning and practicing ways of focusing on celebrating small successes and improvements to stay hopeful and positive for those I serve. Creative writing: As an engineer, I am far more comfortable conveying information in spreadsheets and charts rather than lengthy paragraphs. Recognizing that people learn absorb information in different ways and often require longer explanations, I worry that I don't always do that effectively. To compensate, I partner with others who are excellent at writing help me improve my written communications. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? Public Safety: As I am interfacing with residents and businesses in Edmonds, especially closer to the highway 99 corridor, people are experiencing increasing incidences of property crimes and even violent crimes. Not that long ago, emboldened criminals held two women up by gun point on the Interurban trail. Additionally, I believe an updated emergency response plan is very important for Public Safety. We are facing the double tracking of the railway where hazardous goods are transported through our city. Should a derailment occur, it poses significant risk to our residents and the environment. My concern increased after speaking with a railway worker who explained that they are pulling longer and longer loads and being asked to reduce operators from two to one engineer. An updated Emergency response plan with adequate training and practice among responders and communications with residents is critical to saving lives. Comprehensive Plan: Balancing growth with while maintaining the charm of the Edmonds we love is clearly a top concern of our residents. The future of Edmonds depends on thoughtful, considerate planning. The comprehensive plan must protect our environment, family friendly neighborhoods and businesses all while accommodating modest growth and modernization. I do believe there are creative ways that can harmoniously balance these factors in accordance with the Growth Management Act but it will take hard work and dedication. Moving to a Bi-annual/ Priority driven Budget: Responsibly allocating tax dollars to accomplish work for the residents of Edmonds is a fundamental duty of the Council. It is extremely time consuming, arduous and can be controversial. In connecting with city council members of neighboring cities, it seems that the bi- annual timing of budgeting has many benefits. Benefits include operational funding continuity and available time in the off years for Council to focus on other business. Along with the shift to bi-annual, a thoughtful methodology of receiving input from residents on what their priorities are should be implemented; after all it is the people's money. Packet Pg. 136 2.4.n Janelle Cass Edmonds City Council Position 7 Appointment Application Supplemental Questions 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? The People of Edmonds are at the top of the organizational chart for our city. With that in mind, council is there to serve the people by listening to concerns and enacting lawful policies and budgets that are in the best interest of the residents. Council members have awareness and understanding of the unique characteristics and challenges each neighborhood faces and be committed to finding solutions and set fair policies for our whole community. Council should also work as a team to deliberate ideas to weigh pros and cons of policies to find optimum outcomes for the People of Edmonds. Another vital role for council is to anticipate and plan for our city's fiscal resilience for all economic seasons As we have seen recently, drastic changes can affect our revenue and expenditures and impact the economic well-being of our city and residents. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? The greatest challenge for our City Council is balancing the growth and demand for more housing while preserving the charm and environment of Edmonds that makes it so special. Lots of controversy surrounds added development and in order to make good decisions, planning for our city requires maximum community input. However, getting people engaged can be extremely challenging. While staff has been very dedicated and creative in gathering input, there are many that should be involved that perhaps are not. Going door to door and speaking with neighbors has shown me that the majority of people are primarily focused on getting their individual lives back on track after this pandemic. Families are taking time to make up schooling for their children, spending time travelling and doing all the things they didn't get to do in the past few years. Being aware of pending plans or choosing to get involved is not necessarily at the top of their to-do list. As a council member, it would be extremely important to use all available communications to solicit input on future planning to ensure we are best serving Edmonds including open forums for direct dialogue. 7. Please add any additional comments: Having spoken with numerous residents recently and maintaining awareness of current issues in Edmonds, I am prepared to begin work right away. I am passionate about the wellbeing of Edmonds and would be honored to serve our community in this role.

What is your volunteer experience? I volunteered with Students Saving Salmon from 2017-2019 to analyze and advocate for improvements to stream habitat. I volunteered with the Los Angeles Department of Consumer and Business Affairs from 2021-2022 as a JusticeCorps intern through Americorps, helping unrepresented litigants access justice through the small -claims process. I've volunteered with the Block Project, a group in Seattle that partners with homeowners to build fully equipped ADUs for unhoused folks, since 2020. 2. Have you previously served as an elected official or do you have any experience as an appointed official including public boards, commissions, committees, etc. in either Edmonds or elsewhere? (please provide details) No. 3. What are three of your greatest strengths and three of your greatest weaknesses? Strengths: • Gentle listener: People know their own problems. Joining them in their context to hear them, even for uncomfortable conversations, is the only path towards effective action. • Research -oriented: Thousands of smart people are doing high -quality work evaluating every issue area in existence. I am thorough in exploring these perspectives as a starting point for any problem -solving process. It would be a waste not to. • Articulate & narrative -driven: I like to turn sticky problems into stories that draw people in. We are one, and sometimes we need to find common ground/framing to recognize that to get better outcomes. Weaknesses: • Bias to action, not analysis: I take time to explore any given domain of knowledge before taking action, but I believe the willingness to iterate is a necessary facet of successful approaches in any area of inquiry. • Talkative: I love to share my thoughts with others. Sometimes I talk a lot. Talking is an essential part of the way I learn. When it gets to be too much, you can just say, "Mackey, that is a lot at once" and I'll chill out (promise.) • Impassioned: There is no separation of the personal and political for me. It's all one world. 4. What would be your top three priorities for our city? • Exploring urban land use innovation. Edmonds faces three primary challenges with our urban (or "built") environment: segregation, climate -compatibility, and housing affordability. To create greater community cohesion, improve the viability of decarbonized transportation measures, and provide more affordable housing options of all housing tenures (rental and owner -occupied), we need to enable civic innovation that allows the city to meet our needs — whether we are aging -in -place, finding stable housing, or • Expanding public engagement. City Council can only be as effective as the community input it draws insight from. When that input is unrepresentative, outcomes will be unrepresentative — and it is in everyone's best interests to maximize the number of people whose perspectives are recognized in our process. This is a matter of procedural and statistical integrity. 5. What do you see as yours and the Council's role in our community? I am a designer, organizer, and storyteller. I embed myself in this place, learn by doing, and condense the insight gleaned from working with folks in every slice of this city into considerate policy. Packet Pg. 140 2.4.0 Council's role is to manage the expenditure of public funds in the interest of long-term population well-being and community resilience in our pocket of the world. It is the pass -through between public sentiment and the logistics of administration: every meeting should be a celebration of our shared place and an acknowledgement of the work we can do to make it better. 6. What do you believe to be the greatest challenge for our City Council? Council could benefit from additional perspective on economic & regulatory opportunities for improving the way our urban fabric serves its residents. As it stands, we struggle to empower folks with creative solutions to advance the values of Edmonds. The magic of this place has always been the degree to which it is "customized" by its residents to create a visible sense of communal ownership and presence. Approaches that rely on strict, bureaucratic planning at the expense of 1) our natural environment's health, 2) our sense of connectedness and community cohesion, and 3) opportunities for residents and communities to invest their love and care in the spaces around them, are long due for inspection. 7.
