Re: BID Board appointments
Mayor Johnson and members of the Council,
At the April Board meeting of the Kalispell Business Improvement District the Board of Directors
unanimously voted to reappoint John Hinchey for a three year term. They also motioned to appoint
Marshall Noice to a new three year term.
It is our firm belief that the appointment of these two individuals will assist the KBID in continued efforts
to strengthen the economy of Downtown Kalispell. Their dedication to the downtown is demonstrated
not only in their individual downtown business interests but also in their ability to coordinate efforts
which sustain the economic vitality of the District.
We have enclosed letters of interest in reappointment and look forward to your affirmative vote to
confirm these two individuals.
Thank you.
ly,
Pam Carbonad

Mayor Johnson and City Council,
I am writing to express my interest in reappointment to the Planning Board for the City of
Kalispell. I was appointed to the planning board midterm to fill an open seat in October of
2014 and have enjoyed serving on the board for that short period of time. I would like to
continue serving as a board member. As stated in my original letter of interest, I believe that
planning is a very important process in order to maintain the lifestyle most of us enjoy. I also
believe service to the community is an honor and to be taken very seriously. I am a long term
resident of the Flathead Valley. I was raised on the eastside of the valley and have been a
home owner and lived in the City -of Kalispell for the last twenty years.
As I previously mentioned, I enjoyed serving on the Board of Directors for the Kalispell Golf
Association (KGA). I was elected twice (three year term/six years total) to the KGA Board,
serving as the president for four years. I have experience participating in and conducting public
meetings as well as working with diverse personalities which, I believe, are important skills I will
continue to bring to the board if reappointed.
I continue to be employed by a regional civil engineering firm and have been for over twenty
four years. I have represented clients in front of planning boards and city councils for
development projects. I have experience with zoning, subdivision, and other facets of the
planning process. During client representation and project development I accumulated a
knowledge base and perspective that I believe will continue to be a valuable resource for the
board.
As a long term resident of Kalispell, with a knowledge base and skill set I believe will continue
to be assets to the planning process, I am requesting reappointment to the Planning Board for
the City of Kalispell for the next term.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Doug Kauffman

Current Employer: Montana DNRC
Organization(s) of which you are currently a board member:
Bethlehem Lutheran Church Council and Youth Committee
Why are you interested in serving this board, committee, or commission:
I have had an interest in urban forestry since a child. I love tree -lined streets and wish to
keep Kalispell's boulevard trees healthy and diverse. Growing up in Minneapolis in the
1970s, I saw our entire neighborhood lose 90% of its shade trees to Dutch Elm disease,
and it really changed the face of the area. I want to see a diverse mix of shade trees in
Kalispell so that disease cannot wipe out entire avenues as is currently happening.
Detail any education, knowledge, or experience you have which would be beneficial to this board, committee
or commission:
I have a BS in forest hydrology from the University of Minnesota. That degree required
dozens of credit hours in silviculture, forestry and dendrology, so I have a basic
background in management of hardwoods and conifers. I have also worked in DNRCs
forest management program on school trust lands in northwest montana for over 21
years, so I am familiar our soil types, climate and ecosystems.

Kalispell Sunriser Lions Club
Why are you interested in serving this board, committee, or commission:
I have an interest in the preservation and expansion of the Kalispell urban forest. The
loss of hundreds of elm trees within the City's original townsite is extremely disappointing
and has resulted in a degregation of the character of the historical residential
neighborhood. I would like to help prioritize tree species selection and a replacement
program that reestablishes the street trees the community has lost, maintain the
remaining trees and prioritize planting in the original townsite.
Detail any education, knowledge, or experience you have which would be beneficial to this board, committee
or commission:
As a professional engineer involved in land development for over 40 years in Kalispell,
Flathead County, the State of Montana and the Rocky Mountain region, I worked with
many landscape architects, public agencies and private individuals selecting trees for
site developments and streetscapes. Through this experience I have gained a solid
understanding of what trees can thrive in nothern climates and why diversity is so
important to maintaining healthy urban green spaces. Additionally I own priate timber
land where I practice sustainable timber management.
