Tequesta General Employees Pension Board Member, Former Town of Palm Beach Pension Board Member and was the Town Manager's Office representative on the Palm Beach Development Review Committee (DRC) for many, many years, which critiqued every application made to the Town Council and provided reports on same with recommendations for or against approval and any conditions that may be warranted for application approvals. Made many presentations of public projects to Landmarks Preservation Commission, ARCOM, Planning and Zoning Commission,Town Council, Village Council and Community Appearance Board. In addition, worked in conjunction with design professionals to develop site plans and renderings for public projects that would hopefully be embraced and approved by applicable review boards. BASIC RESUME Personally, I drafted the original Tequesta pension plans for INFORMATION NOT public safety and general employees in 1990's. I have written INCLUDED ABOVE: numerous pension ordinance amendments for the review of actuaries and pension attorneys. I know with certainty the typical pension benefits structure prevalent throughout the Palm Beach County market area for competitive purposes. Very familiar with investment options for Florida public pension plans. Worked with numerous actuaries at GRS and pension attorneys over the years. Very cognizant of pension costs, the effect of unfunded liabilities on pension viability and in keeping costs reasonable for taxpayers, while ensuring that competitive pension benefits are there for retired public safety officers that have earned comfort and security in their old age. I know both sides of the development review process, including but not limited to, site plan review, special exception uses and variances. I have written many code updates for adoption for signs, landscaping, set back requirements, height limitations, parking requirements and community appearance standards. I know both quality and junk when I see it on paper and in the field. I have made applications to review boards in both Tequesta and Palm Beach for public projects and for projects that benefited special districts therein with debt service costs borne by benefitting property owners within the municipality, so I know what constitutes a good, well thought out presentation. I also know when an applicant requests something from a municipality such as a variance or special exception that its a good time to see if some amenities can be reasonably provided for the benefit of the public as part of the overall project. I am a reasonable, middle of the road kind of guy, that believes in the merits of quality compromise. I avoid unnecessarily causing delay and expense to property owners, but on there other hand, it is incumbent on the property owner and their representatives to do their homework and present quality projects to make the Tequesta physical environment and aesthetics even better than what exists today.
