I have been a long time resident (29 years) of the Miami area. I have seen Miami grow from a fairly small town to a thriving metropolis area. I am a student of history, natural sciences, and landscape architecture and appreciate the importance of preserving as much of the natural resource we have left in an economically feasible fashion in an effort to enhance our urban environment. I began my education in landscape architecture and environ- mental design at an early age by working in a plant nursery and becoming involved in all phases of horticulture. I became drawn to the field of environmental design in an effort to understand ways in which to resolve the planning and physical design issues involved as man urbanizes the land- scape. During my undergraduate education, which was a five year professional degree program, I received a strong back- ground in the art and science of landscape architecture. At that time, I took many courses in biology, botany, natural sciences, plant ecology and plant identification. In graduate school, I concentrated on the more complex issues in landscape architecture involving large scale planning, urban design, the economics of development and the economics of environmental preservation and enhancement. I have had seven years formal education in environmental planning and landscape architecture at two of the finer institutions of learning in the United States. I have had eight years of professional practice in the field of environmental design and landscape architecture. Much of my professional work relates directly to the types of concerns that will be addressed by members of the Environmental Preservation Review Board.

I have had much experience in the area of site design and have a good grasp of what is economically feasible in terms of environmental preservation issues. I am a registered landscape architect in the State of Florida and Massachusetts, and a member of the American Society of Landscape Architects, Urban Land Institute and The American Society of Planning Officials. I have had a long record of civic activities which involve my concern for environmental preservation. These activities included the following: (1) Presidential advisor in the Organization for Environ- mental Quality, Raleigh, North Carolina; (2) Environmental workshop moderator for the South Atlantic Region of the U.S. at the national meeting of the American Institute of Architects; (3) Member of the Physical Facilities Planning Committee for the School of Design, NCSU; (4) Volunteer teacher at Wiley Elementary School, Raleigh, North Carolina; developed over a two year period courses in environmental awareness and action; (5) Author of EXERCISES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION, while teaching at Wiley Elementary School; (6) Author of several other publications relating to mental preservation; (7) Presentations on environmental concerns to various civic and University groups. developed environ- "SUPPORTIVE DOCUMENTS FOLLOW" I11III IIiui IIuImuuIuI a City Commission gepternber 15 ► 1918 Page 3 1 am currently a member ofa�eo alrdhild Atidt�bonrSoCietyidal �a�atioiia�.

The site consists of 310 acres in the White Mountain National Forest and is bordered on the South by the Gale River. Working with soils, forestry and engineering con- sultants, a complete inventory of natural and man- made resources was executed. The architect sup- plied the building and function program for the museum which called for extensive use of outdoor exhibit areas. Included in the program are a pond, railroad, main exhibit building, sawmill, loggers camp, maintenance and storage buildings, natural habitat areas and several other smaller exhibit areas. Development criteria were developed for.le each use, and using a color key overlay data - of elements areas on the site were located for each use. Site orcranization was evaluated as to functional arrangement and then site selection was finalized to areas where development would be compatible with the land, taking advantage of specific site opportunities while minimizing the impacts. Because the site is located on United States Forest Service land, all planning and design had to be approved by the Forest Service. The fin. site plan with supporting data has been approved and the project is now entering the site design phase.
