“Thank you mayor. Uh, I, I share exactly the mayor's concern that, uh, and I, I think we need a balance in our community, but my biggest concern are for those. 1st, time home owners that try to purchase homes, whether it's in slightly park near Northeast or, uh, cut ski in that 200 to 300, uh. thousand range and they get bought and that's where we start building wealth and if that market is is closed off by corporate ownership that that's where my concern is so my questions are around are there policy options where we and our partners at the Coalition for Rochester Housing can Can work on that…”

“I guess where I'm at is I'm not interested in us spinning our wheels as creating policy and being around this table to make a policy that really isn't going to move the needle any significant amount. I'd rather see us spend our time on some of the ideas that Councilmember Miller brought up earlier when it comes to the long term. on valuation and other aspects of the discussion that has been rich in this hour and a half. So this one, I'm not interested in seeing us have you spend more time on it. Council Member Fredericks.”

And I don't know how it should be reflected there, but it's almost like And well, what I would say is from. Our standpoint, from my standpoint, sitting here at, uh, on the council, it is vitally important that that be extremely successful. That, uh, the 11,000 writers that we expect on that 1st, they have a, a, uh, a, uh, efficient. safe, clean experience so that they see that as a mode shift…”

“I would also agree, and it also, I have always talked about the need for connections and filling those gaps with the trail system, and so what you're saying, what the early data is saying is that the trails are an important connector to both commuting and getting to people's destinations, so.
