My interest in continuing this work is driven by both a personal ethic of environmental stewardship and a deep appreciation for the intellectual and civic dimensions of planning and land use. I am especially motivated to ensure continuity in the face of increasing workload and upcoming complex projects such as West Lionshead master planning and ongoing implementation of the West Vail Master Plan. As a self-employed consultant with a flexible schedule, I remain fully committed to the time and effort this role demands. I bring a unique blend of technical fluency, democratic values, and collaborative conflict-resolution skills that I believe are essen -judicial and advisory responsibilities. Thank you for considering my application to continue serving the Town of Vail in this capacity. Yours, Robyn Smith
