I was sworn in as the County’s newest Supervisor in December, 2006 representing the City of Novato and the unincorporated areas of Loma Verde, Bel Marin Keys, Indian Valley, BlackPoint and GreenPoint.

Novato is a vital community that cares about issues and the people they affect. Serving this diverse and active community is a joy.

I invite you to attend the Board of Supervisors meetings on Tuesdays at the Marin County Civic Center or you can watch the meetings on the County website at: http://www.co.marin.ca.us/depts/BS/Archive/Meetings.cfm

Supervisors also serve on various committees, like the Transportation Authority of Marin, which can be accessed on the Marin Government Channel website at: http://www.co.marin.ca.us/G-Channel/Default.aspx

The Board of Supervisors appoints many of our residents to a wide variety of Board and Commissions. I invite you to visit the Boards and Commissions webpage and let me know if you are interested in applying to serve on any of them as a 5th District representative or as one of the at large positions: http://www.co.marin.ca.us/depts/bs/members/mcbccindex.cfm

Please know that I want to hear from you and greatly appreciate your interest.

My aides, Tanya Maxwell and Carolyn Glendening are here to help you, and always report your concerns and issues to me.

I cannot promise we will always be of the same mind, but I can promise you I will always have an open mind. Thank you for the privilege of representing you in the Best District in the Best County in California.
