"My academic and experiential credentials are an excellent resource to draw from for this experience," McLaughlin wrote in her application for the position. “I have assisted many communities with planning and economic development projects."
McLaughlin holds a master's degree in Urban and Regional Planning from California State University, Fresno, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Planning and Management from the University of California at Davis.
"Calaveras is a unique place to live with wonderful assets, especially the people who live here," she stated in her application. "Through this position, I hope to adequately represent their wishes as the county grows."
