And
be
proactive
in
addressing
some
of
the
urban
blight
issues
that
we
have
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
A
couple
of
weeks
ago,
you
know
working
with
Commissioner
with
Lajoie
on
amendments
to
the
vacant
building
registry.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
being
proactive
and
the
way
we
address
some
of
the
ban
and
bacon
property.
So
right
now
we're
making
changes
to
the
registry
in
order
to
improve
improvements
and
also
effectiveness
of
the
registry.
So
we
made
three
amendments
to
the
they
can
build
in
registry.
One
of
the
amendments.
C
It's
too
late
and
I
believe
that
being
proactive
and
addressing
this
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
Another
thing
that
we're
going
to
require
for
individuals
that
registered
with
their
benefit
of
properties
there
to
turn
all
utilities
should
be
cut
off.
You
look
at
certain
cities
that
have
vacant
abandoned
properties
and
you
see
structural
damages.
You
see,
fires
that
occur
because
some
of
these
reptilians
are
there.
C
You
have
orders
that
are
breaking
in
doing
all
type
of
activities
inside
some
of
these
properties
and
severely
too
often
the
causes
of
damage
where
police
supply
has
to
be
evolved.
Where
property
has
a
popular
catch
on
fire
and
fire
department,
we
have
to
go
there
and
rectify
the
situation
by
then
it's
too
late.
Another
requirement
that
we're
going
to
make
is
to
winterize
of
the
vacant
abandoned
property,
which
is.
D
So
the
the
first
part
of
it
is
adding
the
interior
inspection
on
a
yearly
basis.
When
somebody
comes
in
to
register
the
building
is
vacant,
what
this
will
do
is
going
to
give
us
access
to
buildings
that
we
don't
necessarily
have
access
to.
What
we
found
in
my
tenure
in
the
city
are
over
90%
of
the
demolitions.
That
happen
are
based
on
water
infiltration,
and
we
have
no
knowledge
of
this.
D
You
know
happening,
or
you
know
we
don't
know,
what's
happening
until
we
call
there
as
an
emergency
and
it's
collapsed
and
I've
had
three
in
particular
demolitions.
In
the
last
two
months
that
I
had
been
in
the
building,
one
was
a
year
and
a
half
ago,
one
was
three
years
ago
and
both
of
those
buildings
were
or
all
three
of
them
were.
D
You
know,
but
the
same
they
had
minor
roof
leaks
that
went
unattended
in
a
year
and
a
half
later
and
three,
you
know
respectively,
ended
up
being
emergency
demolitions
because
it
yeah
the
water
filtration
was
just
too
much
to
wait.
You
know
our
structures
are
very
old,
so
they
just
can't
handle
that
kind
of
that
kind
of
problem.
The
weatherization
as
we're
calling
it
is
just
basically
the
requirement,
while
we're
in
there
inspecting
to
make
sure
that
it
is
weather
tight.
D
So
whether
it's
boarding
up
windows,
replacing
windows,
patching
a
roof,
replacing
a
roof
tarping
the
roof,
whatever
it
might
be
to
stop
that
water
infiltration.
You
know
we're
going
to
require
that
they
take
that
action,
because
again
it's
that
water
filtration.
That
leads
to
a
majority
of
the
demolitions.
The
winterization
is
based
on
cutting
all
the
utilities.
Gas
is
a
no-brainer.
We
had
a
house
five
years
ago
in
Schenectady
they
can
abandon
house.
The
gas
was
left
on
it
built.
There
were
two
ended
up
being
a
leak.
D
The
house
exploded
because
with
the
county
at
the
time
and
our
directive
immediately
was
to
go
to
every
vacant
building
that
was
under
our
under
my
responsibility
and
get
all
the
gas
shutoff,
because
you
know
we
didn't
certainly
didn't
want
that.
To
replicate
shutting
the
power
off
helps
to
eliminate
people
wanting
to
go
in
there
and
squat.
You
know
if
there's
no
power,
there's
no
reason
the
early
to
be
in
there.
D
There's
no
chance
of
heat
they're,
not
gonna
plug
something
in,
but
it's
also
gonna
help
help
prevent
some
of
the
fires
that
have
started
with
squatters
getting
into
buildings
with
power
they're.
You
know
you'll
mix
without
water
infiltration.
You
know
it's
just
a
bad
bad
combination
and
then
shutting
the
water
off
to
the
property.
So
where
we
had
buildings
that
may
not
have
a
water
leak
through
the
roof
or
a
window,
we
found
we
get
what
we
call
urban
mining.
So
people
come
in.
D
They
know
it's
vacant,
they
strip
all
the
copper
out
break
to
the
water
meter
and
maybe
the
meter,
and
now
we
have
water
gushing
into
the
building
for
sometimes
months
before
you
know
we
get
it
until
it
reaches
our
somebody
calls
in
it,
because
it's
now
elevated
to
the
level
where
it's
coming
outside
the
basement
windows,
and
that
is
catastrophe
waiting
with
your
foundations.
You
know
again
we're
in
a
very
old
city.
The
the
concrete
is
not
the
same
as
it
is
today.
D
There's,
no,
you
know
rebar
in
it
is
just
basically
sand
so
by
cutting
that
off.
You
also
eliminate
you
know
on
the
requirement
that
drain
the
remaining
lines
again.
If
someone
does
come
in
and
decide
to
rip
the
copper
out,
I'm
not
going
to
worry
about,
you
know,
flooding,
so
we're
just
trying
to
cut
all
possibility
of
fire
and
water
infiltration,
and
we
have
our
the
best
ability
to
do
that
is
to
get
access
into
these
buildings
and
lay
eyes
on
them.
A
D
With
a
realtor
yep,
so
there's
already
a
provision
in
the
when
they
made
the
change
last
year.
That
allows
people
to
that.
If
they're
going
to
be
selling
it
and
they
give
us
proof
that
they've
listed
it
with
a
realtor,
we
can
give
them
the
waiver.
They
don't
they're,
not
held
to
the
same
requirement
of
having
the
inspections
and
that
kind
of
thing
that's
for
sale
by
owner.
They
have
to
follow
this.
D
They
do
but
I
do
have
I
do
have
the
ability,
as
a
director
to
be
able
to
waive
or
yeah
I
might
still
have
them
register
it,
but
I
won't
charge
them
the
fee.
You
know
whatever
and
whatever
it
might
be,
because
these
inspections
are
not
going
to
cost
the
resident.
We're
not
charging
to
come
out
there
and
do
this
inspection
I,
think
the
money
the
city
will
save
and
these
emergency
demolitions
and
being
proactive.
You
know
it's
not
worth
to
charge
of
somebody's,
adding
another
burden
that
they've
already
got
yeah.
This.
A
A
D
D
I
was
with
the
county
in
2013
and
I
was
charged
overseeing
all
those
before
the
land
bank
was
even
a
thing.
I
mean
I
was
screaming
it
from
the
mountaintops
I.
Couldn't
say
this
enough.
I
had
been,
you
know
and
I've
been
saying
if
I'm
ever
blessed
with
the
opportunity
to
have
the
ability
to
affect
this
I
would
do
it
so
I,
don't
know
why
I
mean
it
seems
so
like
a
no-brainer
and
so
simple
and
you
know
cause
any
look.
You
keep
saying
I,
you
know
we
don't
want
these
demolitions.
D
D
You
start,
you
know,
that's
right,
so
so
on
a
yearly
basis,
if
we're
in
there.
So
if
we
miss
a
leak
right,
if
I
may
also
back
up
we're
also
in
the
process
of
getting
a
drone
for
our
department,
so
we're
going
to
be
doing
exterior
inspections,
rooftop
inspections.
So,
let's
daily
what
I
mean?
That's
not
just
we
just
don't
want
to
grant
no
and
it's
for
four
licenses
for
a
drone
with
four
licenses
and
all
the
training.
E
D
So
if
somebody
does
not
register
their
bill,
what
ends
up
happening
is
once
we're
made
aware
that
it's
not
registered
we'll
send
them
a
Notice
of
Violation
they're,
gonna,
they're,
gonna,
contact
us
and
say
hey.
You
know,
because
it
happens.
Carly
yeah,
you
know
I'm
in
Florida
for
three
months,
I'm
not
gonna,
be
back
fantastic
check
it
off
the
list.
We
have
the
ability
in
our
tracking
system
to
know
that
building
is
you
know,
primarily,
you
know
a
Snowbird
we're
not
going
to.
D
A
D
Gonna
be
huge,
but
I
honestly
believe
this
is
enacted
and
we
start
going
through
it
in
less
than
five
years.
I
really
don't
believe:
I'll
be
standing
at
another
emergency
demolition
unless
it's
a
catastrophic
fire
or
something
that's
out
of
the
control.
I,
don't
think
we'll
have
a
demolition
by
neglect,
I,
honestly,
I,
just
don't
think
it's
gonna
happen.
D
Guy,
who
doesn't
even
bother
direct
so
the
guy
who
doesn't
bother
registering
so
too
bad
for
him,
he's
gonna
get
cited,
he's
gonna
go
through
the
process,
we'll
have
them
in
court
and
we'll
use
every
means
that
way
to
prosecute
and
try
to
hold
that.
You
know
that'll
be
part
of
their
their
finest
they're
gonna
have
to
give
us
the
access.
How.
D
I
registered
it
stayed
about
the
same.
There
was.
It
was
actually
a
little
bit
of
a
so
I
was
looking
from
2017-18
and
current.
We
actually
had
more
registrations
in
2017
than
we
did
2018,
but
for
2019
were
projecting,
you
know,
will
surpass
2018,
and,
but
so
aside
from
this
another
thing,
I'm
doing
is
with
that
grant.
It's
also
to
go
towards
new
software.
The
software
I'm
gonna
have
will
have
the
ability
to
generate
a
Notice
of
Violation.
So,
for
instance,
if
you
register
today,
information
will
go
into
computer.
D
F
D
May
go
both
as
they
always
do
now.
They
take
photos
of
any
violation.
So
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
didn't
necessarily
need
to
be
written
down,
but
it
will
you
know
internally,
we
know
it.
This
is
not
going
to
be
we're,
gonna
come
in
there
and
we're
citing
you
for
a
missing
spindle
or
missing
handrail.
You
know
we're
there
to
make
sure
that
it's
watertight
and
structurally
sound.
D
E
F
D
F
D
D
No
there's
no
violation
and
there's
also
the
other
exemptions
are
in
here
for
that
we're
already
in
there
from
the
last
change.
If
you
have
that
vacant
building
and
you're
gonna
renovate
it
and
you
pull
a
permit,
you
know
you
don't
have
to
pay
the
fee.
You
know
long
as
I
have
the
building
permit
some
submitted.
You
know
we
have
some
things
already
in
place
to
protect
yokes.
We
want
I,
don't
want
to
be
a
hindrance.
I,
don't
want
to
be
a
burden
you
want,
but
I
want
these
things.
D
Online
I
want
them
occupied
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
if
they're
not
they
can
stand
there
for
50
years,
I
won't
care
because
they're
gonna
be
safe
and
you
know,
as
many
of
you
know,
I've
received
a
head
injury
from
a
vacant.
Building.
I,
don't
want
you
know
the
possibility
of
you
know
anybody
else
ever
having
to
endure
something
like
that.
So.
D
It's
it's
a
standard.
They
have
to
get
a
permit
to
have
to
get
a
permit
to
make
sure,
though,
anyway,
any
vacant
building
that's
coming
back
online
period.
We
do
interior
inspections
to
find
out.
You
know
because
they
might
say,
I
had
this
vacant
building.
You
know
we're
gonna,
I'm,
just
gonna,
add
some
cabinets
and
paint
it
and
get
it
back
online.
I
mandate
that
my
inspectors
do
an
interior
walkthrough
before
they
issue
any
permits
to
find
out,
because
you
know
a
homeowner
may
not
know
hey.
You
need
to
address
this.
D
F
Yet
the
thing
about
the
property
insurance
I
know
because,
when
I
moved
up
from
Queens,
when
I
got
my
house
got
robbed
and
when
I
told
those
well
I'm
living
up
here
now
I'm
trying
to
sell
the
house,
they
came
to
play
insurance
yeah
because
you
gotta
be
living
in
the
house.
Is
there
provisions
you
know
kind
of.
D
F
D
B
D
D
There's
nothing
that
happens
automatically,
but
I
have
a
really
good
relationship
with
a
you
know:
Pam
and
Carrie
I've
been
Waldman.
We
actually
communicate
and
I
think
they
sent
you
all
a
letter
of
support
for
this.
We
are
in
constant
communication,
so
they
have
a
list
that
they
work
off
of
a
Billings
that
are
important
to
them,
that
they
know
are
vacant
and
we
had
our
own
list
and
we've
combined
those
lists,
and
you
know
we're
constantly
monitoring
both
lists.
It's.
B
H
D
So
I
you
came
in
after
I
did
I
did
address
this
so
which
is
fine
yeah.
So
currently
our
software
does
not
allow
me
to
have
an
automated
Notice
of
Violation
generated
to
say,
hey,
you
know
this
thing
is:
it's
expired,
so
I'm
manually
sending
out
these
notices,
I
go
through
the
list.
I
manually,
send
them
out.
I
set
up
inspections
for
the
date
that
they're
going
to
and
then
that
inspection
pops
up
as
an
inspection
and
it
says,
look
to
see
if
they
registered
and
they
did
not
register.
D
We
send
the
Notice
of
Violation,
so
we
just
want
to
grant
and
with
that
grant
we're
getting
a
drone
and
we're
also
going
to
be
getting
new
software
code
enforcement.
That
will
be,
you
know
primarily
I
need
the
automation
of
a
lot
of
this
stuff
same
with
elevator
inspections,
and
you
know
public
assembly
instructions
I
need
all
these
things
to
automatically
generate
so
that
as
they
expire,
we
get
that
notice
out
immediately
correct,
so
Doha
I
mean
they
just
go
through
that
process
the
same
process.
H
H
H
D
D
Correct
and
I
and
I
do
the
same
thing
Judy
just
so.
You
know
for
our
Opie's
that
expire
I
have
to
manually
generate
you
know
this
and
send
them
out
so,
but
we're
proactively
doing
oh
absolutely
I
know
I
mean
I
have
clerks
that
are
helping
me
too
clearly,
but
I
had
to
start
it
in
order
to
get
it
into
a
process
that
it's
now,
if
I'd,
you
know,
dropped
that
tonight.
It'll
continue
going
on,
because
that
was
always
my
thing
too,
is
you
know
so
what
you
know
if
they
don't?
C
D
So
we
used
to
send
out
a
notice.
That
said,
you
know
you're
for
the
RP.
You
know
in
particular
the
ROP
expires
in
30
days.
Okay,
so
we
spend
all
this
money
on
mailing
and
those
that
can
fly
great.
They
comply
it,
but
then
we
had
you
know
a
couple
hundred
that
didn't
comply.
I
have
no
idea
who
the
two
hundred
are
I,
don't
know,
I,
don't
have
any
way
to
go
back
and
drag
that
so
I
said
I'm,
not
gonna
waste
money
on
give
tone
them.
You
got
30
days
to
until
it
expires
now.
H
H
D
D
D
D
A
I
D
Drone
is
going
to
be
used,
it's
part
of
our
vacant
building
grant
and
it's
going
to
be
used
to
do
exterior
roof
inspections.
I
mean
we
saying
I'm
vacant
buildings,
but
it's
really
gonna
be
used
across
the
city.
I
mean
we'll
have
quadrant
areas
that
we
can
say.
You
know,
let's
go,
look
and
see
what's
going
on
which.
D
That
as
I
sit
here
but
I'm
sure
we
will
I
mean
cuz,
we
have
to
go
through
the
licensing.
We
got
all
the
training,
that's
going
to
come
with
that
and
we
get
four
licenses.
We
do
know
that
we
can
use
them.
We
can
use
them
in
the
photographs
we're
allowed
to
use
as
evidence
for
notice
of
violations.
So
we
do
know
legally
younger
and
Rob
McGee
is,
you
know,
you
know
actually
get
to
secure
the
grand
for
us.
D
I
Between
baking
in
the
band
make
it
means
it's
empty,
but
they're
paying
taxable,
so
the
city
really
came
to
month.
Let's
say
you
register
your
building
Omega,
but
what
abandoned
that
means
are
not
paying
taxes,
it's
just
sitting
there.
So
now,
as
a
city,
if
we
know
it's
abandoned
now
me
figure
out
okay.
What
are
we
gonna
do
with
this
property?
It's
obvious
this
tip
this
owner,
it's
gone.
They
have
no
claim
to
it,
they're,
not
paying
taxes.
I
B
I
D
I
can
tell
you
for
boots
on
the
ground.
They
decided
to
consolidate
it.
You
know,
because
it
happened
before
me,
because
there
was
too
much
confusion
for
the
fire
department
out
doing
vacant
building
inspections.
You
know
what
constitutes
vacant,
you
know
and
it
used
to
be.
If
it
was
either
had
a
board
on
a
window,
it
wasn't
locked
by
normal
means
or
violation.
H
I
H
C
D
I
D
The
other
part
of
this
is
the
national
code.
The
national
code
says
any
vacant
building
requires
one
of
three
placards
the
X,
so
on
so
forth,
when
you're,
trying
to
you
know
whether
or
not
they're
paying
taxes
is
irrelevant,
whether
or
not
it's
vacant
and
you're
gonna
get
one
of
these
placards
so
this.
So
there
was
a
lot
of
that
stuff.
That
was
part
of
that
conversation
again
I.
Wasn't
there
I,
wasn't
part
of
it.
D
I
F
F
B
F
F
E
K
K
I'll,
keep
this
quite
brief.
First
off
I
do
agree
with
president
Ellis
his
point
about
abandoned
versus
bacon,
and
also
this
is
very
important
to
finalize
this
legislation,
because
I
think
you
all
remember
this
past
summer,
I
think
it
was
July
or
August
that
vacant
building
that
was
or
abandoned
building
that
was
torn
down
and
it
ended
up
ruining
someone
else's
property
or
something
like
that.
Yeah.
K
B
K
H
G
On
Aaron
Kelsey,
759,
Madison,
Avenue,
okay,
so
I'd
like
to
have
to
go
over
some
of
the
issues.
I
think
that
the
committee
is
facing
that
the
Department
of
Buildings
is
facing
when
it
comes
to
the
red
X's
in
the
city
of
Albany,
the
history
of
the
red
x's
was
borne
out
of
Chicago
from
the
fire
departments
there,
when
one
of
the
firemen
ran
into
a
building
and
there
was
a
drop
floor
and
died.
G
G
G
There's
no
defining
difference
between
dangerous
buildings
and
just
plain
empty
buildings,
and
I
heard
that
conversation
starting
to
crop
up
a
little
bit.
I
believe
that
if
you're
going
to
open
up
the
vacant
building
discussion
again
about
how
you're
managing
the
enforcement
side
from
code
and
buildings,
it
needs
to
be
a
wider
discussion
about
it
and
there
needs
to
be
support
to
the
Department
of
Buildings,
for
what
they
want
to
do.
G
The
idea
here
is
that
you
want
to
return
properties
to
use,
and
how
do
we
do
that?
You
know
I
mean
this.
Is
one
issue
aside
here
about
how
to
how
to
deal
with
it.
But
one
thing
I
caution:
the
committee
about
is
punishing
owners
of
vacant
properties
with
higher
fees,
inspection
requirements
and
other
things
we're
lumping
everybody
into
one
program
here,
and
it
may
make
sense
to
look
at.
How
can
you
do
some
things
for
those
property
owners
that
want
to
rehabilitate
a
property?
They
don't
want
to
be
on
the
registration.
G
They
don't
want
a
red
X
in
front
of
the
house.
The
neighbors
don't
want
a
red
X
in
the
front
of
the
house,
and
there
may
be
some
ways
that
those
owners,
with
the
help
of
the
city
can
make
sure
that
those
things
are
happening.
I
think
it's
really
really
important
that
when
we
start
talking
about
going
inside
and
demanding
a
structural
engineering
report
that
the
city
be
cognizant
of
how
much
that
costs
somebody
to
do
most,
people
are
not
going
to
pay
licensed
professional
engineer
two
or
three
or
four
thousand
dollars
to
do.
G
A
structural
engineering
report
just
for
the
city
because
they
wanted
so
I
think
there's
some
problems
in
rushing
into
this,
but
I
support
the
overall
problem
that
Rick
is
bringing
here.
One
of
those
problems
is
the
offices
of
Emergency
Management
he's
getting
saddled
with
duties
that
come
in
to
Albany
County
Office
of
Emergency
Management
under
the
structured
buildings
right
they
have
a
seat
at
the
table
for
anybody
that
wants
to
go.
However,
when
you
look
on
the
Albany
County
website,
the
last
meeting
they
had
was
2014.
G
I
know
this
from
my
professional
capacity
and
working
as
a
international
environmental,
health
and
safety
and
security,
executive
management,
professional
also
MA,
Schenectady,
County,
auxilary,
police
officer
and
I
also
sit
on
the
city
of
Amsterdam,
Planning,
Commission
I.
Think
that
there's
enough
here
of
interests
and
passion,
not
only
from
this
committee
from
rich
Department
all
the
way
up
to
you
know
everybody
there,
including
the
historic
you
know,
division
but
I
think
there's
other
people
that
need
to
be
pulled
into
this,
the
chief
for
the
fire
department,
the
chief
of
the
police
department.
D
The
placard
in
is
done
by
the
fire
department.
They
conduct
those
of
inspections
without
having
access
to
the
interior
of
the
building.
That's
what
they've
been
there?
They
would
have
factored
the
X
No.
So
does
they
bother
being
overly
cautious?
So
in
the
last
two
months,
a
member
of
my
department
and
remember
the
fire
department
or
have
gone
back
and
Riaan
spected?
We
had
479
x
buildings,
we
inspected
I
think
today
they
may
have
finished
it.
If
not
tomorrow,
Walden
will
have
been
expected
and
more
again
as
best
they
can
more
appropriately.
D
So
we've
already
went
from
the
479
to
400.
X's
didn't
remove
the
other
placards.
They
were
just
downgraded
because
they
needed
training
internally
at
the
fire
department
to
know
you
know
they
thought
if
it's
a
dangerous
building,
it
gets
an
ax
and
it's
not
if
it's
a
dangerous
building,
the
half
slash
means
it's
a
dangerous
building.
You
have
to
enter
with
caution.
The
X
is
meant
for
the
worst
of
the
worst.
The
absolute
do
not
enter
and
we
didn't
make
that
up.
That's
a
so!
That's
us!
That's
a
national
law.
D
So
with
this,
we
will
clearly
have
a
better
idea.
It
into
your
point
of
you
know
requiring
the
engineer's
report,
which
is
what
we're
allowed
to
require
every
six
months.
If
we
need
to,
you
will
see
far
less
of
that
requirement,
because
our
promise
is
the
unknown
we're
not
in
there.
You
know
you,
the
owner
tells
us
everything's
fine.
Well,
you
tell
me
you'd,
find
and
show
me
it's
fine,
a
few
different
things.
D
So,
if
you,
if
we
are
in
there
you're,
not
gonna,
see
that
that
violation
nearly
as
often
because
we're
gonna
be
able
to
confirm
we're
walking
through
it.
We
know
it's
not
hazardous
to
the
point
that
someone's
gonna
fall
through
a
floor.
It
doesn't
need
the
X.
It'll
still
need
a
placard.
It'll
still
get
the
appropriate
placard.
It
just
won't
be
the
X.
F
F
D
I
I
I
D
I
A
C
A
Those
in
favor
aye
those
against
okay,
it's
being
reported
to
the
full
council
with
a
positive
recommendation.
Next
we're
going
to
take
what's
the
number
on
this,
they
aren't
leaving
us
no
ordinance,
830
1.19
by
council
members
holy
shet
in
the
name,
and
it's
cementing
article
eight
farm
animals,
a
chapter
of
115
animals,
the
code
of
the
city
of
Albany,
to
authorize
and
permit
the
keeping
of
ends
so
I
will
let
the
sponsors
have
to
first
sign
this
and
explain
it.
A
A
F
F
A
F
F
A
F
H
H
H
E
A
E
F
H
E
J
H
E
C
L
Ya
didn't
conversation
most
of
you
already
know
this
and
just
to
again
reiterate
my
support
for
it
and
as
nonprofit
organization,
they
sent
south
of
Albany
we're
happy
to
assist
with
whatever
problems
come
up,
whether
that's
offering
trainings
or
workshops
or
coming
up
with
sort
of
the
do's
and
don'ts
or
best
practices
that
could
be
handed
out
with
the
permits
that
are
issued
for
it,
as
well
as
assisting
with
rehoming
and
chickens.
That
need
to
be
done,
and
we
are
happy
to
sign
a
memorandum
of
understanding
whatever
is
required
of
us
yeah.
L
A
You
I
mean,
like
I,
brought
up
last
time,
if
you,
if
you
get
get
it
out
to
the
public,
more
educate
them
on.
What's
going
on,
especially
I,
think
it'd
be
very
helpful.
I
actually
went
to
daycare
graduation
whatever,
and
they
had
pony
rides
in
this
net,
but
one
of
the
most
popular
thing
was
the
chickens.
The
only
thing
and
the
kids
are
tricky
to
finger
in
there
every
day
they
just
went
crazy
over.
So
thank
you
what
they
next
that
Alana.
You
want
to
speak
on
this
to
in
the
hands.
K
If
you
remember
my
comments
from
last
time
that
I'm
neither
for
nor
against
associations
personally,
if
I
had
the
opportunity
I
would
not
and
no
offense
rule
sue
but
I
think
the
idea
about
getting
a
poor
people
in
keeping
chickens
to
get
eggs
that
not
as
hell
for
me
I
think
that's
a
pretty
good
point,
but
we
can
agree
to
disagree
on
that
I'm
glad
everything
seems
to
have
worked
out
with
mr.
Lovejoy
and
Scott,
and
anything
like
that.
My
main
concern
is
I,
did
not
see
anything
in
the
legislation
about.
K
E
K
That
to
the
point
then,
like
just
me,
my
main
concern
with
this
has
always
been
the
equity
and
reducing
the
square
root.
Necessary
square
footage
is
a
big
step
in
that,
but
I
think
that's.
Another
point
is
that,
even
if
some
people
have
the
space,
they
might
not
have
the
financial
resources
or
whatever
so
again,
maybe
just
something
to
think
about
either
tonight
or
when
it's
going
to
playful
council.
A
M
B
M
Waterhouse
I've
lived
here
for
about
25
years.
I
went
to
st.
Rose
I
live
on
Madison,
Avenue,
I'm
right
by
Knox
Street,
so
I'm,
actually
not
here
for
myself.
I'm
more
here
for
my
brother
and
sister-in-law,
who've
been
trying
to
move
to
the
Capital
Region
for
about
a
year
and
a
half
and
they've
not
been
able
to
find
anything
because
they
have
chickens
well.
M
M
M
As
you
can
imagine,
the
cost
of
living
in
North
Carolina
is
a
little
different
from
New
York,
so
they're
trying
to
find
something
that
they
can
live
with
within
their
means
that
they
can
fix
up,
maybe
an
abandoned
or
vacant
building
that
sitting
there
being
used
as
a
drug
hangout
right
now,
but
when
I
told
them
that
there
was
a
new
potential
for
chickens,
they
were
so
excited
hens.
Sorry,
they
were
so
excited
because
I
have
a
two
and
a
half
year
old
daughter,
but
they're
desperate
to
live
as
close
to
as
possible.
M
So
I
just
wanted
to
say
they
are
eager
to
move
here
and
take
up
one
of
these
buildings.
That's
sitting
there.
They
want
to
pay
their
taxes,
they
want
to
go
to
the
restaurants.
They
want
to
go,
spend
their
money
all
around
the
city
of
Albany,
and
this
is
sort
of
like
gets
them
actually
one
step
closer
to
doing
it
and,
having
spent
some
time
with
their
hens,
you
would
never
even
know
that
they
were
there.
They
are
so
quiet
the
bugs
they
are
gentle.
They
let
you
pet
them.
