ADJOURNMENT 4 5 PO Box 1494 Buena Vista CO 81211 8/3/21 Town of Buena Vista PO Box 2002 Buena Vista CO 81211 RE: Letter of Interest, Trustee Vacancy Dear Board of Trustees and Mayor, I, Mark Jenkins, am submitting this Letter of Interest for position of Town Trustee for the current vacancy. There are several reasons why I think I would be the best choice for this position, because I sincerely wish to help make the transition from now until the next election, April 2022, the smoothest it can be, for the community and for the Board. I propose the following as qualifying factors to consider: 1. My most recent service to the town was from April 2016 to April 2020. Therefore, I have recent experience and knowledge of Town initiatives, Comprehensive Plan, budget, etc., which I see relevant to making that smooth transition possible. 2. I have served with all sitting Board members and the current Mayor, and I have a positive working relationship with present Town staff members. 3. Relating to meetings and process: as a 2-year serving Mayor Pro Tem within my Trustee service above, I am experienced in meeting protocols and legalities, and therefore, could reassume a Board position without further training. 4. Relating to specific Trustee duties: I have attended numerous CML trainings and workshops. 5. During my time on the Board, I became actively involved in the functions of various advisory groups and committees, which gave me a comprehensive understanding of Board responsibilities and issues related to Town governance. Due to prior commitments, I will be traveling for the months of October and November, so I would not be available for in-person meetings during that time. However, I will be able to prepare for meetings and attend remotely. I am eager to serve again, should the Board consider me worthy of this appointment. Sincerely, Mark E. Jenkins Mark E. Jenkins 6 7 FROM THE DESK OF Matthew Snow August 5, 2021 Paula Barnette, town clerk Board of Trustees Town Hall 210 E. Main St. Dear Paula and board of trustees My name is Matt Snow and I have lived here in Buena Vista for nearly 13 years.I am writing to express my interest in joining the board of trustees for Buena Vista. Currently I work from home caring for my four children and also work part time at The Inn in BV. I got my start in BV working for Young Life at Frontier Ranch for 11 years. My wife Beth Snow is a Nurse Practitioner for the CDOC as well as Our Town Medical. Our four children are; Jude (7), Olivia (4), Blythe (3) and Ben (1). I would be honored and excited to represent my community as a part of your board. Our family are invested members of the community here. We are engaged heavily with the younger crowd of BV including young parents finding a way to make a life here, as well as the “20-something” community of single people. I love living shoulder-to-shoulder with people and connecting over what is important to us. Buena Vista has been so good to my family. From the amazing playground we live in, to the tight knit community that rallies around its own, we have fallen in love with this place. Contributing to this place by serving on this board would be a gift. I would strive to keep the “community” feel in a town that has been “discovered”. My personal vision for our town is maintaining our unique culture of a tight knit community amidst the challenges and opportunities of growth.
