Trustee Bios:
Susan Scott
Susan Scott, a regular visitor to Point Reyes since 1975, recently moved to Inverness from Sacramento, where she's lived, raised children, and worked as an attorney for the past 23 years. She has spent the past 15 years organizing, developing and living in one of the first American urban cohousing projects (Southside Park Cohousing) and the first with an affordable financing program for low and moderate income residents. Upon moving to Inverness, she immediately began working for affordable housing here and joined the Interim CLAM Board in June of 2002. She is committed to using the land trust home ownership model to further the creation of a viable self-sustaining multi-income community in the Tomales Bay area.
Nancy Adess
Nancy Adess has lived in Inverness since 1983. She has been on the boards of the West Marin Health Project (now the West Marin Health Alliance), the Jack Mason Museum, and the West Marin Music Festival. She has also worked with MALT, Papermill Creek School, West Marin Literacy Project, and Gallery Route One. In her work life, Nancy edits books on natural history, fundraising, and community organizing and social justice. Her career has been spent working for and with nonprofit groups.
Kerry Munger Livingston
Kerry Munger Livingston, a longtime West Marin resident, has plenty of experience in the local housing situation: she and her husband were renters raising three children for fifteen years (five rentals in Point Reyes Station and Olema) before finally finding one of the last affordable houses in Inverness eight years ago. Her father, Carl Munger, co-founded CLAM at a time that he could see first-hand the housing frustrations of lower income West Marin residents. Kerry has been a West Marin librarian for 20 years, the last 17 of those at Stinson Beach and Bolinas libraries. She and her husband, California historian Dewey Livingston, have three children: Molly, a senior at UC Santa Cruz; Ben, a senior at Tomales High School; and Nora, a junior at Midland School.
Terry Nordbye
I have lived West Marin for thirty five years. Both of my children were born here. I have worked as a general building contractor for the past twenty-five years serving only the nearby towns. Outside of my immediate gene pool, the people of this community are my family. What makes this community unique and strong is the active involvement of community members in deciding the social and political atmosphere we want to live in. Passions and jobs: Kayaker, swimmer, tree hugger, cloud watcher, building contractor, desert rat, watching ants.
Nancy Vayhinger, LCSW CMT
I have worked with non-profit organizations for 20 years, as a social
worker, counselor, teacher, project manager, and representative to the
public through written and oral communication. My second career for the last
10 years has been to offer therapeutic bodywork and massage to people of all
ages, and especially to seniors. I also practice Tai Chi, Aikido, and
kayaking. I wish to support affordable housing, which benefits everyone in
the community.
Daniel Cordrey
Carpenter and green-building
specialist.
Marshall Livingston, Property Committee Chair
I have been involved in housing issues in West Marin for thirty years as a renter, homeowner, designer, builder and landlord. As a licensed contractor and real estate broker, my experience with ownership, financing, construction and tenant/landlord law and relations can be valuable to CLAM and the community. I am committed to the creation of low cost housing for all members of the community. I am on the Design Review Committee of the Point Reyes Station Village Association and the board of the West Marin Youth Soccer League. I live in Inverness with my wife and children.
