Briefly explain your interest in serving on the Revitalization Commission. <br />I moved to Louisville a little over 5 years ago. The majority of my life was spent on the coasts, specifically NY <br />and LA. While it is somewhat of a long story, the only reason I moved to the area was one fateful day when I, my <br />wife and two kids (1 and 4 at the time) stumbled on Sweet Cow in Louisville. We had already made a decision <br />not to move to the area because we had spent most of our time during that visit in Boulder. Louisville changed <br />our minds... <br />5 years later, I have seen some of that luster wear off. While there are fantastic things that have happened in the <br />city including the new rec center and maintenance of street faires (albeit watered down), I think the approach to <br />new ideas and growth has been approached with a fearful and reticent eye. <br />Change and openness to new ideas and approaches will help our community continue to grow and thrive and I <br />am definitely in that camp as opposed to the folks that just want everything to stay the same. <br />33 <br />
