“Thank you, Senator. I appreciate that. I would suggest that there's been some rumblings on council about going back and re-implementing some of the STC codes that we had back 10 years ago or something like that. And I would actually push the port to either reimburse developers and homeowners that decide to do remodels with that STC package as opposed to forcing that cost onto the developer or the homeowner.”

“I just have one comment. My new project, senior project manager, lives in Three Tree Point and found out that I was a council member on the city of Des Moines, and he can't wait to tell me all the stories of his seven-year-old son and all the fun he has. He takes him to the camps from Normandy Park to Berrien and all over the place, and he says by far his son has the most fun in all the camps in Des Moines that he is. So you guys are doing a great job, and I applaud you for that. Appreciate it. All right.”
