To whom it may concern,

My name is Alex MacPhail,

I currently sit on various sub-committees of Saco Maine Street, and am Executive Board

member, and donate my time to events throughout the year. I am married to a wonder lifelong Saco

resident and having lived in and around the area for the last 26 years, looking forward to spending

the rest of my life within these city borders (I own two properties).

It is with great interest that I submit information with regard to the open position on the Saco

Conservation Commission Board.

I am a former Saco River Corridor Commission Board member, as well as Shapleigh Planning

Board member, with extensive experience in both fields of municipal planning and conservation.

Additionally I helped form and assist the Maine DEP pilot project “Mousam Lake Youth

Conservation Corps,” performing erosion control measures in and around the Mousam watershed

area and was chair of the #1 Pond Committee in Sanford/Springvale.

I have sat on boards as varied as the Nasson Community Center Committee, VP of Sanford

Soccer Association, Sanford Mainers Steering Committee, Acton Fair Committee, Ossippe Valley

Fair Committee, an early version of the Old Orchard Beach Ballpark Commission and more and

understand the dynamics needed of parties being able to come together and work towards a

common goal.

I would hope to be considered for this opening.
