Having been employed by a local business far the last 14 years plus a local resident for the last 3+ years I feel that it is my duty to put back into the community from all that I have gained by living in Rosemount. I do feel an urgency for Rosemount to carefully make movement in our development. I think that it is prudent that we know begin the complete the current steps that we have started to give us a firm foundation for the coming years. I am sure like many others that we seek to provide an adequate supply for our senior population. The demographics clearly show that our society is aging and we do want to be prepared. I feel as a benefit to you that I am well known in and around town and have always been known to listen to the needs and co�cerns of others. Simply put I am approachable. You can rest assured that I will seek to give representations of those that I am chosen to share their views. In closing I am expressly concerned that we continue to provide a wide variety of services and products to meet the needs of our residents and surrounding neighbors. This can only help to strengthen our area thereby adding additional jobs and revenues to our already increasing growth in Rosemount. I would therefore appreciate this opportunity to serve ou'�'this term on the Port Authority. Sincerely, Kenneth R. Ingram 423-9146
