I graduated �:� from Drake University Law School with myjuris doctorate, and '� received my bachelor of arts from the University of New Hampshire. What contributions can you To summarize it to four basic points: First, I put 100-percent malce or state reason for into everything I do. I would do the same thing for the Housing applying? Commission, including conducting any research, reading, or � community-engagement required to best serve the Commission, the City, and its citizens. Second, as an . admittedly newer"Dubuquer," I believe I can also add some fresh insight into the housing needs of the City. Third, as an attorney, I have an understanding of legal issues the Commission may face. Finally, I have a passion for serving my community, and particularly have an interest in serving the needs of those who may not necessarily be looked out for. I believe a government agency like the Housing Commission does exactly that with its work serving the needs of residents who need low-to moderate-income housing. Describe your experience In an effort to best answer this question, I have worked in working in diverse diverse environments in nearly everyjob, organization or environments: activity I have been involved with.Whether it be political diversity religious diversity, gender diversity, ethnic diversity, or economic diversity, I have been fortunate enough to work(and grow)from working with a broad section of people. There is no ,,...�.,.,.»..,,.._ �.,....�.........................�.......,....� .........e.......>.�..............�..,. ....,..�.....,..,.�..,,._..,.._..�...............�... g & 2 � � d E doubt that some of the communities I have been involved with were more diverse than others. However, I reflect positively on the interactions i have had with people who come from different backgrounds.Without those interactions, I know I would not � have grown to be the sort of person I am today. I hope this � sufficiently answers the question, if not please let me know so I � may supplement. � Describe your experience While I have never served in local government before, when I engaging other community was a student at Drake University Law School I served as the members to gather their vice president of the student body. Admittedly the community I input and opinions: engaged with was small, but I took pride in reaching out to my � constituents by holding open forums and keeping them informed of community issues via social media. These, as well as surveys, proved to be valuable methods of engaging the community in order to ascertain its input and opinions. They did not always work, but making an effort to show that you truly do j care did cause certain community members to understand that � I was available to speak with them outside of these more � i formal settings to discuss issues which may arise. � � List two references: Y N��A��Brody D.

F . � SIGNATURE: � � i Kevin Firnstahl From: Gail Weitr <windword403@outlook.com> Sent: Thursday, February Ol, 2018 8:56 PM To: Kevin Firnstahl Subject: Housing Commission Applicant Greetings: My name is Gail Weitz and I have submitted my application for a seat on the City Housing Commission. I would be addressing you in person but the off-year caucus is tonight and I am my precinct Chair. Born and raised in Cascade, lowa, I graduated from Dubuque Senior High School, attended the University of Dubuque, and years later, received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Clarke College, now Clarke University. I started my professional career at the lowa City Veteran's Hospital, transferred to the Indian Health Service, then returned to Rockford Memorial Hospital. The majority of that time was spent in the emergency rooms of underserved areas where I learned a lot from the patients I met and the friends I made. After retiring to Dubuque where I had established friendships through volunteering at Dubuque Area Residential Care, St. Anthony's School, and the Dubuque Catholic Worker House, I re-connected with the Dubuque Branch of the NAACP. Shortly after that, busloads of children fleeing for their lives crossed the border of Mexico into the United States and Dubuque for Refugee Children was born. That organization continues to advocate for undocumented minors as well as for those we assisted in getting green cards. The issue of safe, affordable housing continues to be of major importance for them and for all people of color who are struggling to give their children a better life. Dubuque has been tasked with the unique challenge of inviting area landlords to the table in order to help them see the benefits of providing safe homes and apartments for all people, throughout the city, not just in prescribed areas. I would be honored to contribute to that effort. Sent from my G a laxy Ta b A Click here to report this email as spam. 1
