                Statement of J. ROBERT FOSTER, Candidate for
                      City Council Member, Short Term
   Occupation: Attorney
   Age: 57
   Education and Qualifications:
   
   I have lived in Morgan Hill for 32 years. I have been extensively
   involved in community affairs, including serving 12 years on the
   Morgan Hill School District Board and 4 years on the City Council
   (Mayor, 1984-85). From 1965 to 1979, I served as Assistant City
   Attorney. Born in California, I graduated from Willow Glen High School
   in 1957, San Jose State University in 1961, University of California,
   Boalt Hall School of Law in 1964. I was California deputy legislative
   counsel 1964-65. Since 1965 I have belonged to numerous organizations
   in Morgan Hill, been active in children's sports, service clubs, Boy
   Scouts, and various committees. Currently I am a member of the Rotary
   Club, Morgan Hill Historical Society and United Methodist Church.
   Professionally I am a senior advisor to the Estate Planning, Trust &
   Probate Section Executive Committee for the California State Bar.
   
   Morgan Hill is no longer a small city. The recently completed
   visioning process indicates the desires of the community. We need
   cultural and recreational facilities. I support the construction of
   such facilities in a well-planned manner, but also on a fiscally sound
   basis.
   
   I presently serve as an interim member of the City Council.
