St. Anthony Village, MN 55418-2553 Friday, July 13, 2008 Mike Mornson, St. Anthony City Manager 3301 Silver Lake Road St. Anthony, MN 55418 Dear Mr. Mornson, Please accept this correspondence as a letter of interest in participating in the task force that will help research the possibility of a single garbage hauler in St. Anthony. I have lived and owned a horne in St. Anthony since November 2000. My career has been in corporate benefits.' I have worked in a local firm as a consultant/senior benefits analyst to law firms, manufacturing companies, retail stores, and other clients regarding their defined contribution plans. Prior to that, I worked at Honeywell in their corporate benefits department and at Dayton Hudson (now Target) in their corporate benefits department. For the last four years, I have been a stay-at-home mother to my children: a 4'/z and a 2 '/2 year old. I believe that many skills I utilized in my career will transfer to the work that will need to be done by the task force members. In my last position as a consultant, one of my responsibilities included the complete process of requests -for -proposals (RFP) projects for our clients. I have experience collecting data and information and presenting such data in a manner to the client so the various vendors can be compared as objectively as possible. The purpose is to select a new vendor that meets the goals of the organization or to document that the current vendor continues to meet the goals. I also have extensive experience working with clients and employees in explaining benefits, plans, and regulations along with problem -solving issues they are experiencing. My main reason, though, for my interest in participating in the task force is that I am proud to be part of the St. Anthony community as a resident. My husband and I are raising our children in this great city and we have made such wonderful friends in our neighbors. I care about the vitality of our city and our residents. I would like to contribute to my city, and the task force, in whatever capacity is deemed helpful. I applaud the City Council in requesting research on our city's procedures in areas such as a garbage hauling. Such actions will ensure the continued strength of our city. Thank you!
