Dear Mayor De Weerd:
I spoke with your office on Friday afternoon and, as promised, I am enclosing a copy of
my resume for the recent vacancy on the board of commissioners for the Meridian
Development Corporation.
As an azea native I'm seeking this appointmant to participate in helping to shape and
grow the area that I have always called home. I have always seen the potential for a
thriving and vibrant downtown Meridian and feel it is important to help maintain the

helping families call Meridian their own. I believe that I can bring an understanding of
the market and a passion for the renovation and rejuvenation of our city's core that will
allow me to help the commission make educated and informed decisions regarding our
city's future.
