Bill filled one of the two "at large" positions that exist on our committee. (Marion Sinsheimer is the other "at large" member) . We would very much like you to appoint a citizen to fill this vacancy at you: earliest convenience. The Jack House Committee has discussed the qualifications of several people who it believes could best help our committee at this stage of its work. The expertise that we presently lack is : that of public relations; that is, a person who is ,, knowledgeable in working with the media, with the business community, and with service organizations to keep Jack House activities before the public and to stimulate the use of the Jack House and gardens. We believe that we have discovered a person who would fill that bill beautifully. That person is Pam Zwiefel. We have contacted her, and she is willing to serve and we have asked her to fill out an application form for appointment consideration. We have informed her that while our committee can recommend, the final appointment decision is that of the City Council. This she understands. As you will discover in reviewing her application, Pam formerly handled the public relations for our local PG&E office.. She is familiar with PR work and..is very knowledgeable about our city. She left her PG&E position several years ago to begin raising a family which is now ata stage where she feels that she can begin devoting some time to community activities. She has discussed the Committee's PR needs with Kathy Strong who was our former JHC "expert" is this area. As a result, Pam has some insight into what she would be getting into. RECEIVED 15 991 CoCI . . LUISO O, CA . 536 Marsh Street Mailing address: P.O. Box 8100 San Luis Obispo, CA 93403-8100 The Jack House Gardens The City Council has treated appointments to the Jack House Committee as well as the terms of JHC members differently from the appointments to other city advisory bodies. This is partly because of the unique conditions established by the family when the Jack House was gifted to the city and partly because of the well defined responsibilities of the committee. We hope that the City Council will continue to make appointments to the JHC with this in mind. On behalf of the committee, I respectfully ask you to give every consideration to the appointment of Pam Zweifel to the Jack House Committee. sincerely, thel Cooley, Chairperson 536 Marsh Street Mailing address: R O.
