I know you agree with me that such an overwhelming response is quite encouraging. St. Paul residents are genuinely concerned about the issues that face these committees, and commissions. Their willingness to devote their time and talent to participate in the governmental process insures that the process will remain open and productive. I carefully studied the numerous resumes that came into my office. During the selection process that lead to these ' nominees, I kept two priorities in mind; 1. To maintain the stability of the various committees by retaining seasoned members whose past experience will benefit new members. 2. To bring new people into the process whose fresh ideas and enthusiasm will guarantee the continued effectiveness of the committees. Of the 21 nominees, 17 would be new appointments. The four reappointments are people who were recently appointed. The con- tributions these people have made in their short tenure justifies their reappointment. Deborah Bachrach was first appointed on 11/1/77, George Berry on 9/9/76 , Maria Girsch and Peggy Foster on 5/10/77. • � � 2`��.`��� I believe the nominees I am today submitting for your approval reflect my commitment to those priorities. Along with the list of nominees, I have also attached resumes of the nominees for your information. Thank you for consideration of these nominations. , Sincerely, . eo e ati e� 7g CITY OF SAI`T Pl�i�I. '-j � OFFICF Or' T73E �L�YO�t ,u-i�� I �nf;i_.; ; • " 347 CITI" H.iI+l.

' As you can see from the enclo5ed resume, I have worked as Informa�iorr Officer �- ,for the P�innesota State Council for the Handicapped. for the past to years. During this time, I have answered numerous questlons regarding disabilities and have helped many dis�bled persons with a problem find an agency or organization which could help them solve the problern. In the course of my work, I have maintained close cooperation with service-provfders, both in St.. Paul and in other communities throughout the state. I believe my experience as Information Officer together 4vith my experience 'as a person with a disabi]ity (cerebral palsy) has made me very aa�are of the problems facing persons 4vith disabilities as well as ways of confronting these difficulties. This would be useful background to bring to the Mayor's Committee, I feel--a resource which the Committee would find valuable. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely yours, , � ���� � �� Kurt E.

I have considerable practical experience in working with handi- capped persons--and their concerns are part of our daily lives--as our iive year old daughter was born with a profound heaxing loss (total deaf- ness). I also have a nephew who is multiply handicapped. I realize many of the problems the handicapped must face, and I am committec3 to helping them become integrated into the mainstream of civic life. I think I can be especially helpfnl in relation to the dea.f and hearing impaired as �y experience i.ncl.udes the following: 1) Extensive practical experience in dealing with the deaf. I am fluent in �ign language and am part of a group help- ing to standardize the signs used in the St. Paul school. system. 2) �iork with PAC�R (�arent kdvocacJ Coalition for Educational Rights), a groun organized to inform parents and assist handicapped children in obtaining the best education possii�le. 3) Contributing member of the St. Pau1 Rehabilitation Center. Our daughter has appeaxed on their calendar anfl i.n a com- mercial made for United Way. , ' . � -2- . !�) Par�icipation in local political caucuses and conventions to emphasize and inform others of the needs of the hanc'a.- capped. 5) Attendec3 the P�iinnesota Foundation for Better Hearing and Speech, Update 76 workshop. The primary function was asses�- ing needs of the hearing iripaired throughout the State of Minnesota. 6) Have contacts with the deaf co,r^saunity and a familiarity with programs for the deaf in St. Paul. I am also awa:e of national programs �or the deaf and innovations and legislation being tried in other areas of the country. Although most of my experience has dealt particularly with the hea.,�ing impaired, I see many areas of shared concern £or all handicapped persons, and understand from personal experience the struggle they face. I also imow that wi.th a little support and consideration many of the problems of the handicapped can be alleviated or compensated for, and that these people can lead useful and worthwhile lives without compromising their c�.i.gnity and integrity. If flu�ther inforriation and/or references are desired, I z�.3.I be happy to supply them. Sincerely, �i�, /�.
