NORTH VANCOUVER CITY

GY sta to swverat starr

My name is Umeeda S. Switlo.
I was born in Uganda and moved
to Britisk Columbia in 1973. I
attended Argyle Secondary Schoo!
in Lyna Valley and the University
of Victoria, studying Marine
Biology, Behaviour and
Statistics and Environmental
Toxicology at Simon Fraser

University. After finishing my-

studies, | went to work in
Nanaimo for Fisheries and
Oceans and Jater worked for the
Ministry of the Environment.

This is when I received the
best outdoor experiences of my
life that have led to an abiding
respect for the Environment
plobally and more importantly for
he area in which | live.

I married Gary Switlo and
moved to North Lonsdale from
Kitsilano tn order to raise our
daughter Narcena. In 1988,
Nareena was one and a half years
old and I decided to work. Gary,
my parents and I bought the old
United Church in Deep Cove. I
renovated it, pre-
serving its character
and converted it intr
the largest private
child care facility on
the North Shore. It
was and still is called
My Little School Day
Care, I taught
summer camp there ~
“My Summer with a
Biologist” and enjoyed
that immensely. 1
could see Narcena
every day and Icad a U
productive life getting
involved in the North Shore After
Schooi Day Care Society and
other child care organizations.

In 1990, Gary found out that
he was HIV Positive and I began
letting go of the school and sold it
in 1997.

During Gary’s illness, I
became very active in North
Lonsdale. | became the President
of the North Lonsdale Rate-
payers Association, Treasurer of
the North Shore Child Care
Society, and was appointed to
the Environmental Task Force,
sat on the Braemar Dempsey
Committee and finally sat on the
Parks Advisory Committee.
These were difficult years for me
personally but I found great
courage in the simple fact that
there were some things | could
change. I found my advice and
thoughts were appreciated and |
met many wonderful people who
were involved on the different
committecs,

In 1992, Gary and 1, with our
neighbour, took the controversial

Weicpees

step of rezoning our properties
from RS3 (which would allow us
to subdivide these properties) to

RS2 (which would leave. the:

properties and trees and homes
as they were). We then were the
first homeowners in the District
to designate our Knoc Firinn as
a heritage home protected by

law, This olce log home can now -

be enjoyed for generations to
come.

After Gary passed away in
Apri! 1992, 1 challenged myself to
assist in raising $1 million for the
St. Paul’s/UBC Aids Research
Chair and succeeded. :

1 then wanted to complete the
task of rcturning service and
marketing expertise to the Ticket
Industry and began Community
Box Offices Inc. and in one short
year, have challenged a monopoly
that has existed for 14 years. This
has truly been a huge challenge.
The most important aspect here

was to gencrate funds for the Arts,

and | hope that I will be able to
; succced with this goal
three ‘of

operations.

Learning is my

oal, 1 never back

own from contro-

versy and I ama

persistent leader. In

voting this year, I

would like you to

remember that if

elected, I will be only

one of seven in-

dependent clected

decision makers. My

role will be that of a

leader to ensure that decisions

are made effectively and in a

timely fashion. I have run

businesses and yet have an

abiding love of the Environment

and shall make my decisions

based on what is best for the

environment and the community
within it.

My background and com-
mitment to the community will
ensure a fresh approach as
mayor. I have already made a
difference in this District and
will be challenged by you to do
more.

Please help me by becoming
involved, by caring. by listening
and by voting.

Thank you
Umeeda S. Switlo

Candidate for Mayor
of the District of
North Vancouver
