- West Palm Beach-Boca Raton, FL (1888PressRelease) August 25, 2012 - Stephen Joseph Jara
Candidate for Seat 2 PB Soil & Water Conservation District
I am excited and pleased to present myself and my qualifications as a candidate for the upcoming Palm Beach County Election.
A Palm Beach County native, I was born at Bethesda Hospital in 1964. My father owned a very successful landscape and sprinkler business as well as owning a tree nursery and my mom was a Realtor. From a very young age, I worked for my father and learned the importance of hard work and integrity. A graduate of Pope John Paul II High School in 1983, I played football and was Captain on the golf team. Later I earned an AA degree in Business Management from Palm Beach Junior College, attended FSU and earned my BS at Vista College in Hospitality Management. I applied my hospitality degree in my career as General Manager at The Glade (Rehoboth, DE), The Little Club (Gulfstream) and Woodfield CC (Boca Raton) all country clubs. I also worked for Kolter at PGA Village and The Bear's Club in development. Currently I am President & Managing Broker at Pristine Properties, a full service real estate company and own a cattle ranch and tree farm.
I have earned the GREEN designation from the National Association of Realtors and have served as President-Elect for the Okeechobee County Board of Realtors. I sit on several Board of Directors and Committees which includes; Coastal Conservation Association South Palm Beach, Snook & Gamefish Foundation, Delray Beach Athletic Club, Pope John Paul II HS Alumni Group and a Member of the Florida Cattlemen Association.
As a Member of the PB Soil & Water Conservation District, I would utilize my experience in agriculture to assist in educating local land users, residents and businesses on ways to protect our natural resources. I have hands on experience in cattle, equine and tree nursery operations and know the value of Best Management Practices. Our county is one of the top counties in this nation which produces various agriculture products and we need to constantly educate and offer assistance to the professionals to continue keeping our Palm Beach County Green!
