Karen Tabata was approved at the January 2007 Board meeting as Land Use Chair pro tem: "I have lived in the Bridlemile neighborhood since 1989, and enjoy being the owner of one of the area’s historic homes built in 1904. My interest in homes and land use stems from my profession as a realtor. I have been a real estate broker for the past 16 years and work with the Coldwell Banker, Barbara Sue Seal Properties Uptown office. My husband Cal and I have three sons, who have all attended Bridlemile Elementary, West Sylvan Middle School and Jesuit High School. I am looking forward to learning more about land use issues and recently attended the ABC’s of Land Use seminar on November 18th."

Rich Adelmann is continuing on as Land Use committee assistant to help with and backup Karen on the many Land Use meetings and activities until one or more additional neighbors volunteer to be Land Use committee assistants, if you are interested please contact
