John Scheflen, candidate for Community Planning Committee

I have been married to Marcia for 53 years and we have 4 children and 8 grandchildren. I am an elder at Faith Presbyterian Church. I was a corporate lawyer for 17 years and general counsel for a bank for 15 years. Marcia and I purchased our house in Arden in 2009, spent more than two years renovating it and moved into it in 2011. We love living in Arden. I have served on the Board of Assessors for several years and am completing a two-year term on the Community Planning Committee.

INTERESTS & SKILLS: As a corporate attorney I have considerable experience in corporate governance and some in municipal governance. I was recently appointed as the Community Planning Committee representative on the Arden Governance Task Force. I am interested in learning more about Arden’s experiment with semi-direct democracy and in helping to review and revise its governance documents,

DATE: 3/11/22
