I have been a resident of Kalispell for 15 years. I moved here with my family in March of 1995. My nephew had just been murdered by a gang in Ventura, Ca. where we lived. My wife and I needed a better environment in which to raise our children. Her family all lived here so we vacationed here quite often. We decided to move here and we are very happy we did. I currently own 4 homes in Kalispell, three of which I rent out. My children are all grown now and work and live here in Kalispell. I currently have 3 Grandchildren, all born here in Kalispell.

I am able to commit for the 2 year term and look forward to the opportunity of serving on the Planning board. Respectfully, Stephen I.

I will make my remarks brief. I have spent my entire life in the construction industry. with a father in the commercial and industrial roofing fields and other family members in the building trades, I have heard and seen a great deal. As you will see in my resume, I have extensive firsthand experience in commercial and residential construction. Over the course of my life I have had the privilege to travel around the country for work and non -work related purposes. During this time I have talked to a great deal of people and visited many places. I could not help notice how some locations were laid out different than others. Some of these places were efficient designs so that growth would expand steadily and evenly without destroying the area with massive eye sores. For example, the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania use to be a beautiful resort for people that wanted to get out into the country to relax from places like New York and Philadelphia. If you visit there now it looks like a rundown casino looking town that got hit by a hurricane. It has billboards all over the place that are falling apart, rundown old buildings with newer vastly cheaper looking structures spotted all over the town. The bottom line is that the Pvconos exploded with growth and interest, but it was not managed reasonably so that anything was allowed and it finally reached a point where it warn"t attractive anymore. I feel that decisions concerning our community should be made in the best interest of our entire community, and not just one faction or aspect of it. I'm a builder, but I'm not here to slant all my opinions and recommendations to favor just the building industry. I'm here to keep it reasonable and fair concerning what is in the best interest of Kalispell and its future so that it doesn"t turn into another Poconos Resort debacle. The Flathead Valley is a beautiful area and my home and I would like to offer my experience and knowledge to the Planning Board in order to keep it that way for generations to come.
