DISCUSSION
We had an opportunity to talk with Mr. Shumate earlier this year and I am pleased to forward
you his application and materials. He has been a resident of the Duwamish neighborhood for
four years and has worked with the Friends of Hill on the Duwamish Hill Preserve. He has also
been involved in transportation, shoreline and light rail issues. Mr. Shumate owns Propel
Designs, an industrial design company that focuses on transportation and consumer products.
His background and experience are very well suited to the Commission. I am recommending
that Council approve this appointment.
Please provide any feedback to me prior to February 11, 2010.
