A
All
right,
hello,
everyone
welcome
to
the
August
meeting
of
the
city
of
Binghamton
Planning
Commission.
My
name
is
Nick
Corker
and
I'm.
Currently,
the
chairman
of
this
commission,
which
is
comprised
of
local
community
members,
tasked
with
reviewing
site
plans
and
special
use
permits
with
consistency
with
the
standards
and
criteria
set
forth
in
the
city
of
Binghamton
code,
based
on
our
total
number
of
Planning
Commission
members,
four
members
must
be
present
to
constitute
a
quorum
tonight.
We
have
five
members
tonight.
We
have
six
members,
which
means
we
do
have
a
quorum
and
can't
proceed.
A
Right,
Mario,
Di,
filvio,
Steve,
C,
Prasad,
Kelly,
Weiss
and
Manny
priest
is
going
to
be
absent
tonight.
A
A
All
right
so
we're
on
to
Secret
determinations
in
this
portion
of
our
meeting,
the
Planning
Commission
will
be
reviewing
documentation
provided
by
applicants.
For
the
first
time,
applicants
will
be
called
to
the
microphone
where
they
will
be
asked
to
make
a
presentation
describing
their
plans
to
the
commission.
Commission
members
May
then
ask
questions
of
the
applicant
to
clarify
any
items
that
are
unclear.
After
all,
questions
have
been
answered.
The
commission
will
deliberate
and
then
either
set
a
public
hearing
date
for
the
project
or
request
additional
information.
A
Before
proceeding
to
all
applicants
that
will
be
presenting
tonight,
we
ask
that
you,
please
state
your
name
and
address
for
our
records
before
beginning
your
presentation,
and
we
ask
that
any
member
of
your
team,
who
will
be
speaking,
please
give
their
name
and
address
for
our
public
record
all
right
tonight.
Our
first
Seeker
determination
is
for
the
applicant
Crowley
Factory
Lofts
LLC
project
address
is
135
Conklin
Ave.
A
C
A
D
We
are
planning
on
turning
the
first
floor
into
two
commercial
spaces
and
also
indoor
parking
the
outside
we're
going
to
redo
the
existing
parking
lots
in
the
loading
dock
area
into
a
new
parking
lot
to
provide
the
necessary
parking
spaces.
The
two
upper
floors
will
contain
48
Apartments.
D
We
are
going
for
the
shippo
and
NPS
tax
credits,
State
and
national
tax
credits,
so
we'll
have
to
meet
the
interior
of
the
Secretary
of
the
Interior
standards.
For
that
preserving
a
lot
of
what's
already
in
there,
that's
the
main,
that's
pretty
much
what
we
plan
on
doing
with
it
all.
E
B
D
I
do
have
over
here
on
the
east
side
of
the
building
I'm,
showing
a
one
dumpster
there
for
now,
we'll
probably
have
to
have
more
than
that
and
we're
in
the
early
stages
of
the
planning.
Oh.
D
D
It
should
we'll
probably
need
more
than
one
dumpster.
Obviously,
that
should
be
the
size
of
one
of
the
commercial
ones
that
you
see
outside
of
building,
but
okay.
B
And
I
see
teal
has
walked
away.
I
was
going
to
ask
because
I
am
not
an
expert
on
planning
minutia.
What
kind
of
requirements
we
should
be
asking
of
the
applicant
to
I,
don't
want
to
say
decorate,
but
sometimes
we
require,
like
you,
know,
fencing.
So
it's
not
visible
between
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
I'm,
not
sure
what
the
rules
are.
In
theory.
Are
you
willing
to
abide
by
whoever
rules
Tito
and
the
others
in
planning,
say
yeah.
D
Make
us
appropriate
yep,
we
do
have
on
each
side
of
the
building
that
portion.
We
don't
have
just
the
trash
enclosed
right
now,
but
we
are
enclosing
the
parking
lot
on
that
side
to
be
a
gated
parking
lot
as
well
on
the
West
Side.
A
portion
of
that
will
be
a
gated
parking
lot,
so
the
trash
collection
won't
be
visible
from
the
road
or
anything
like
that.
But.
C
A
Right,
excellent
and
as
far
as
repaving
or
anything
you're
reusing
the
existing
asphalt
or
you're
going
to
be
repaving
completely
I.
D
Believe
the
plan
at
the
moment
is
to
repave
it's
there's
some
decent
spots
out
there
that
are
kind
of
rough,
so,
okay
planning
on
using
the
existing,
curb
cuts
and
everything
like
that.
So
we're
not
redoing
anything
all
right.
D
D
There
is
I,
guess:
I
didn't
fall
it
out
on
here
for
some
reason:
I'm
thinking
it
said,
existing
buildings
were
exempt.
But
if
not,
we've
got
space
in
this
back
area
where
the
screen
space
is
that's
going
to
be
an
entrance,
so
we
have
space
over
there
that
we
can
add
bike
parking
if
we
need
to.
A
D
E
A
D
We
haven't
quite
planned
anything
it'll
be
visible
from
inside
the
apartments,
we're
not
going
to
disturb
it
really
at
all.
That's
probably
going
to
be
one
of
the
character
defining
features
of
the
building,
so
yeah
we're
going
to
keep
it
put.
E
A
A
All
right,
so
you
know
other
questions
or
comments.
I'll
make
a
motion
that
the
proposal
is
a
secret
type,
2
action
per
nyccrr.6,
because
it
involves
a
reuse
of
a
structure
containing
mixed
residential
and
Commercial
uses
where
the
residential
or
commercial
use
is
a
permitted
use
under
the
applicable
zoning
law
or
ordinance,
including
permitted
by
special
use
permit
and
the
action
does
not
meet
or
exceed
any
of
the
thresholds
in
section
617.4.
A
It's
my
motion
seconded
by
Chris,
all
in
favor,
all
right,
six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
and
I
make
a
motion
to
schedule
a
public
hearing
for
this
project
at
our
September
meeting
at
5,
20.,
all
right,
second,
by
C
Steve,
all
in
favor,
all
right.
Six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
all
right.
So
we
see
you
back
in
September
and
we'll
have
a
public
hearing
and
see
if
anybody
comes
to
make.
D
A
G
G
Forest
birth
rate
will
consist
of
four
one
bedroom
units
and
two
two
bedroom
units
on
each
floor
and
Floors.
Two
and
three
will
have
seven
one
bedroom
units,
five,
two
bedroom
units
and
one
three
bedroom
unit.
F
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
we
got
a
floor
plan
today
from
the
applicant
that
shows
those
numbers
the
floor
plan.
We
had
originally
had
a
different
number
of
units,
so
staff
report
is
going
to
be
is
going
to
show
less
units
than
what
he
just
said.
G
Yes,
I
believe
the
the
staff
report
is
is
missing
the
third
floor
and
the
second
and
third
floor
are
identical.
So
at
least
you
can
have
the
first
an
idea
of
what
it'll
look
like
all
right.
B
Chris,
as
I
asked
the
previous
app
you
can,
can
you
tell
us
what
the
plan
is
for
garbage
disposal
I'm,
not
seeing
anything
on
the
plans
for
dumpsters
or
driver.
G
Coaching
rooms
sure
so
on
the
staff
report,
you
can
see
the
the
corner
of
Henry,
Street
and
Commercial
alley.
There's
there's
already
a
dumpster
there
with
plenty
of
room
to
increase
in
in
size.
You.
G
On
the
staff
report,
there's
there's
four
pictures:
one
is
labeled
you
from
the
corner
of
Henry
Street
and
Commercial
alley.
Okay
and
you'll
see
in
the
back
corner.
There's
a
dumpster
there.
G
H
B
Think
we
would
encourage
that
and
maybe
revised
set
before
the
public
hearing.
Yes,
the
movie
looked
kindly
upon
okay.
G
I
I
did
get
a
chance
to
read
through
the
comments
now
the
comments
show
bathrooms
and
and
a
kitchen
in
the
basement
due
to
the
the
slope
of
the
property.
What
is
considered
a
the
basement
at
the
Chenango
Street
side
is
actually
the
ground
level
retail
space
that
you
see
on
the
Holly
Street
side.
So
where
you
see
the
kitchens
and
bathrooms
in
the
in
the
quote-unquote
basement
or
ground
level,
it's
really
a
retail
space.
Okay,.
G
There
will
be
no
party
rooms
here.
No
this
underneath
the
the
tower
section
is
what
I
call
the
the
side
of
the
building.
It
goes
up
big
stories.
There
is
a
a
traditional
basement.
That's
currently
used
for
storage.
G
We
don't
have
any
plans
for
any
party
space.
We
have
all,
with
the
exception
of
two
units,
they're
all
one
and
two
bedroom
units
there.
Okay,
we
don't
even
plan
to
Target
students
here
so
be
a
little
bit
different
of
a
deal.
Okay,.
B
I
B
G
Yeah,
so
if
you,
if
you
look
at
room
two
on
the
floor
plan
and
if
you
look
at
the
the
view
from
Henry
Street
on
a
staff
report,
that
is
the
ground
level,
where
all
the
where
all
the
windows
are
so
the
the
windows
that
are
set
back
behind
the
pillars
in
that
picture
are
actually
there's
actually
two
floors
in
that
of
which
used
to
be
a
electrical
manufacturer
and
they
have
staircases
that
go
between
the
two
floors.
G
G
But
as
of
right
now,
the
space
is
to
be
left,
as
is
as
office.
Slash,
retail
space,
okay.
B
F
Could
I
suggest
that
the
floor
plan
be
labeled
that
way
so
whatever's
a
commercial
tenant
space
be
labeled,
whatever
is
part
of
the
nightclub
space
be
labeled
just
so
it's
clear.
What's
what's.
J
C
K
G
You
are
seeing
it
right,
we,
the
the
we
just
printed
it
wrong.
So
the
the
revised
floor
plan
removed
one
of
those
bathrooms
and
it's
actually
a
walk-in
closet
next
to
a
bathroom.
G
A
G
Blue
Cross
is
gone.
Okay.
The
engineering
firm
is
still
there,
but
they're
they're
month
to
month,
at
this
point
about
probably
25
to
30
percent
occupying
the
companies
that
are
there.
You
know
since
since
bill,
but
they
came
back.
The
ones
that
did
come
back
are
kind
of
at
a
reduced
need
for
office
space,
so
the
ones
that
are
there
most
of
them
are
looking
for
smaller
spaces.
A
I'll
make
a
motion
that
the
proposal
involves
the
ReUse
of
an
existing
commercial
building,
which
is
a
type
2
action
under
seeker
and
that
no
further
environmental
review
is
required
taken
by
Steve
all
in
favor
all
right.
Six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
and
I'll
make
a
motion
to
schedule
a
public
hearing
for
the
project
at
5
25
at
our
September
meeting.
A
All
right,
our
next
applicant
tonight
is
greater
opportunities
for
broom
and
Shenango.
The
project
address
is
32
to
34
Munsell,
Street
and
75
to
77
Liberty
Street.
This
is
a
site
plan
review
and
special
use
permit
for
the
construction
of
two
new
multi-unit
dwellings
containing
a
total
of
12
units
and
18
total
bedrooms
and
an
Associated
parking
area
in
the
R3
multi-unit
dwelling
District
welcome.
L
L
So
as
part
of
our
39
49
month,
old
Street,
greater
opportunities,
purchased,
30,
20
31
through
33
months
old
street,
from
the
city
of
Binghamton,
and
it's
just
vacant
land
right
now,
as
well
as
30
to
34
months
old
and
75
77.
There's
this
empty
vacant
Lots,
so
we're
proposing
to
create
two
buildings:
two
floors
per
building:
six
units
per
building,
three
one
bedroom
units
and
three
two
bedroom
units
in
each
building.
L
B
L
B
F
F
Yeah,
the
biggest
Gap
is
on
the
lion
Street
side,
the
landscape
buffer.
In
the
parking
area
back
there
is
supposed
to
have
shrubs
and
trees.
It's
just
grass
and
there's
trees
missing
required
trees
missing
throughout.
F
We
just
didn't
want
to
jump
to
sending
a
notice
of
violation
right
away,
just
wanted
to
try
to
maybe
correct
it
through
this
process,
because
this
is
a
site
plan.
Modification
of
the
previous
approval.
L
I
did
notice
on
the
comments.
There
was
a
review
about
combining
the
properties.
We
cannot
do
that
for
the
city
of
Binghamton,
restricted
Covenant
on
the
properties.
So
we
tried
to
do
that
when
we
were
doing
the
39-49
muscle,
Street
project
and
we
were
told
by
the
city
lawyers
because
of
the
restricted
Covenant.
We
can't
do
that.
A
All
right,
if
there's
no
other
questions
or
comments,
I'll
make
a
motion
that
the
proposal
is
an
unlisted
action
under
seeker
and
that
the
Planning
Commission
should
act
as
lead
Agency
for
Seeker
review,
all
right.
Second,
by
Kelly,
all
in
favor
all
right.
Six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
and
I'll
make
a
motion
to
schedule.
A
public
hearing
for
the
project
at
5
30
at
our
September
meeting,
all
right
second,
by
Steve,
all
in
favor
all
right.
Six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
all.
A
In
this
portion
of
our
meeting
we'll
be
holding
open
public
hearings
to
obtain
public

in
regard
to
specific
projects

A
Our
next
public
hearing
tonight
is
for
the
applicant
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County
project
address
is
15
Charles
Street.
This
is
a
site
plan
review
and
special
use
permit
to
convert
the
basement
of
an
existing
mixed-use
building
to
Social
Services
use
slash
warming
station
in
the
I-1
urban
Business
Park
District.
H
N
Hi
everyone
Sarah
Campbell
with
him
and
Howard
Patel
representing
the
applicant
tonight.
The
executive
director
I,
didn't
think
you'd
blow
through
your
agenda.
This
fast,
so
I
told
her
not
to
be
here
till
six,
so
I'm
going
to
start
she's
teaching
a
class
at
the
University
I'm
going
to
get
started
without
her.
We
have
her.
N
So
thank
you
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
represent
tonight.
We
met
with
you
several
months
ago
regarding
the
project.
Nothing
about
the
project
has
functionally
changed,
but
we
took
the
time
and
the
opportunity
to
provide
some
additional
information
to
you
in
response
to
many
of
your
questions
and
also
in
response
to
many
of
the
questions
raised
by
members
of
the
public
at
that
first
meeting,
since
it
has
been
a
little
bit
since
we've
met
before
I'm
just
going
to
quickly
refresh
everyone's
recollection.
N
This
is
a
project
at
15,
Charles
Street,
a
building
which
acbc
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County
owns
the
project
is
for
a
warming
Center
and
for
those
of
you
who
might
not
know
what
that
is
since
I
didn't,
it
is
just
a
an
area
where,
when
it
becomes
32
degrees
or
below
it
opens
for
people
to
come
in,
get
out
of
the
cold.
Sleep
have
a
light
meal
and
then
leave
in
the
morning.
The
property
is
located
in
a
neighbor
I'm,
sorry
in
a
Industrial
Park
District.
N
That
is
the
brown
color
that
you
see
here
on
the
city
zoning
map
there
aren't
too
many
of
them
in
the
city
of
Binghamton
that
is
surrounded
by
a
neighborhood
commercial
District,
which
is
locate
which
is
in
the
red,
and
that
is
pretty
much
every
property
running
on
Clinton
Street
in
the
in
the
immediate
area.
N
The
Egyptian
Center
of
Broome
County
is
a
medically
supervised
outpatient
clinic
clinic
that
in
deals
with
the
care
and
management
of
various
at-risk
populations,
the
acbc
is
turning
50.
This
year
it
serves
more
than
a
thousand
individuals
and
has
more
than
100
employees.
N
Again.
The
application
is
to
locate
a
40
bed
warming
unit
in
this
facility.
Obviously
it
would
only
be
open.
I
say
that
I
shouldn't
say
that
it
should
only
open
in
the
winter,
because
hopefully
that
was
the
only
time
we'll
have
32
or
below
the
hours
of
operation
are
proposed
at
5
PM
to
7
00
a.m.
N
We
provide
you,
provided
you
a
supplemental
packet
of
information
which
I
know
that
you've
all
had
an
opportunity
to
read
through,
but
we
did
provide
a
appendix
B,
which
is
the
daily
schedule
of
event.
Sorry
they
blew
through
really
fast.
N
Weird,
but
okay,
so
again,
the
facility
will
operate
from
5
PM
to
7
A.M
in
terms
of
security
protocol.
There
is
a
metal
detector
at
the
facility,
and
clients
will
be
wanded,
also
there's
an
opportunity
for
them
to
lock
their
belongings
for
the
evening.
They
may
not
leave
the
facility
if
they
leave
they
may
they
may
leave.
N
They
may
not
re-enter
if
they
leave
and
and
again
keeping
in
mind
that
this
is
a
code
blue
location,
they're,
coming
in
from
the
cold,
it's
fairly
unlikely
that
we
would
see
people
leaving
they're
also
is
a
criminal
background
check
that
is
done.
Any
people
with
various
felony
convictions
would
not
be
permitted
to
enter
in
terms
of
sort
of
what
does
a
knight
look
like?
N
It
would
be
coming
in
at
five
sort
of
getting
registered,
getting
checked
in
I'm
having
a
light
meal
lights
out
around
10
6
a.m.
Wake
up
a
light.
Breakfast
seven
o'clock
would
be
time
for
people
to
leave
acbc
plans
to
provide
transportation
to
downtown
the
library,
ds-dos
or
other
appointments
that
the
individual
might
have
for
the
day.
N
One
of
the
reasons
that
we
delayed
coming
back
to
you
is
because,
at
about
this
time
we
the
time
we
submitted
this
application.
Acbc
was
also
involved
in
a
comfort
station,
a
new
project
on
Chenango
Street
at
the
United
Presbyterian
church,
and
that
had
just
opened.
We
really
wanted
to
take
the
opportunity,
get
some
experience
so
that
we
weren't
just
giving
you
what
we
think
will
happen,
but
we
actually
had
Real
World
Experience
sort
of
with
how
that
Center
operates.
N
So
we're
pleased
to
report
some
information
to
you
with
respect
to
that
process.
In
May
there
were
284
people
in
in
the
way.
The
way
that
the
lingo
is
is
heads
in
bed,
so
284,
heads
and
beds
during
the
month
of
May.
N
That
facility,
as
is,
will
be
this
cold
blue
warming
station
is
stopped
with
two
people
per
ship.
There
are
two
shifts
per
night
and
a
supervisor
comes
in
and
out
during
that
period
in
June,
that
facility
had
402
heads
and
beds,
and
some
additional
Services
have
developed
from
the
experience
at
that
facility,
which
are
things
like
identification
coordination
with
the
sheriff's
department.
N
One
of
the
problems
a
lot
of
people
have
in
obtaining
Services
is
that
they
don't
have
identification,
and
so
the
peer-to-peer
counseling
that's
available
at
the
facility
allows
facilitation
of
identification
also
enrolling
in
health
care
coverage
and
anticipating,
perhaps
the
opportunity
for
telepractice
Health
Care,
some
sort
of
medical
at
least
consultation
I.
Don't
think
that
it's
a
surprise
to
anyone
that
there's
an
enormous
need
for
these
types
of
facilities
in
the
area.
I've
certainly
provided
a
lot
of
data
to
you
all.
With
respect
to
the
increasing
need
for
these
facilities.
N
The
proposed
location
is
located
at
15
Charles,
which
is
at
the
entry
of
the
corner
of
Charles
and
Clinton
Street.
So
I
did
some
measuring
because
I,
if
you
haven't
been
over
there,
it's
an
interesting
location
because
it's
very
industrial
there
is
a
power
plant
right
across
Charles
Street
from
it.
N
The
property
entrance
again
is
right
on
the
corner
and
the
location
that
the
warming
station
will
be,
that
the
individual
will
be
entered,
enter
entering
and
exiting
is
right
on
the
corner,
so
I
did
some
measuring
to
the
north.
The
nearest
house
is
475
feet
away
to
the
east,
about
610
feet
from
the
West
about
611
feet
and
across
Clinton
Street.
There's,
nothing.
N
It's
a
vacant
vacant
lot
and
just
by
way
of
comparison,
a
football
field
is
360
feet,
so
we're
either
one
and
a
half,
or
at
least
a
football
field
away
at
the
closest
location-
and
you
know
almost
two
football
fields
away
to
any
residential
facilities
at
the
farthest,
location
and
I.
Think
that's
important
because
it
isn't.
This
is
not
a
building.
That's
sort
of
nestled
into
a
residential
neighborhood,
the
residential
neighborhood
is,
is
far
behind
and
off
to
the
sides
of
it
and
I
also
drove
around
that
area.
N
N
It
doesn't
connect
you
to
say
a
street
that
might
get
you
to
downtown
or
a
street
that
might
have
a
commercial
bus
or
a
bus
stop
for
you
to
get
somewhere.
The
bus
routes
are
on
Clinton
Street
and
the
shortest
route
to
downtown
is
Clinton
Street.
N
So
just
try
to
keep
in
mind
that
when
it's
freezing
outside
it's
in
likely
that
people
are
going
to
choose
to
travel
in
a
way
that
really
doesn't
get
them
anywhere,
they're
going
to
be
much
more
inclined
to
travel,
to
services,
to
warmth,
to
food
to
other
services
and
appointments,
so
in
terms
of
just
feeding
back
into
the
neighborhood,
which
was
a
concern
that
neighbors
have
and
and
I
certainly
appreciate
that
there
doesn't
seem
to
be
a
lot
of
reason
to
go
back
there
and
then
evaluating
the
site
plan
and
special
use.
Permit
criteria.
N
I
just
again
wanted
to
stress
that
nearly
all
the
properties
facing
Clinton
Street,
our
Zone
neighborhood
commercial,
a
district
which
similarly
allows
Social
Service
uses
in
the
same
way
and
through
the
same
process
that
this
project
is
going
through.
In
fact,
at
114,
Clinton
Street
that
project
and-
and
that
was
my
project
as
well-
it
was
actually
construction
constructed
and
utilized
for
Social,
Service
use
and
just
to
give
you
a
visual
where
that
is
it's
right
across
from
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club.
N
So
it's
certainly
not
an
unknown
to
the
neighborhood
in
terms
of
the
special
permit
criteria.
One
of
them
is
that
the
project
be
designed
located
and
operated
to
protect
the
public
health
safety
and
Welfare
I
just
wanted
to.
With
respect
to
that
highlight
that
it
is
a
permitted
use,
subject
to
site
plan
review.
This
is
Clinton
Street,
which
is
a
main
thoroughfare,
and
that
acbc
is
an
experienced
agency
in
managing
and
maintaining
and
running
this
operation.
N
We
would
submit
you
respectfully
that
there
is
no
injury
substantial
to
the
surrounding
neighborhood
again.
The
experience
of
the
agency
and
the
experience
of
the
agency
and
their
facility
downtown
does
not
support
that
claim,
and
also
the
agency's
experience
and
Partnerships
with
other
Mental
Health
Providers
and
the
police
department,
the
training
of
employees.
All
of
those
things
make
acbc.
N
You
know
a
very,
very
good
organization
to
run
such
a
facility.
There's
no
parking
problem,
there's
plenty
of
parking.
They
actually
own
a
lot.
That
is
all
parking.
There's
no
traffic
burden
and
the
population
is
not
a
group
of
people
that
will
be
bringing
lots
of
cars
to
the
building
and
in
terms
of
just
the
environmental
oversight
of
the
project,
it's
an
Adaptive
reuse
of
of
a
large
industrial
building
that
otherwise,
you
know,
might
be
difficult
to
occupy.
N
Acbc
estimates
that
they're
in
total
investment
in
the
property
will
be
approximately
20
20
million
dollars
they
do
have
or
or
they
would
like
to
talk
about
their
future
plans
for
the
building,
but
they're
just
so
uncertain.
At
this
point
as
to
be
really
hypothetical,
they
do
know
that
they
are
going
to
consolidate
their
office
employees
at
this
location,
that's
a
permitted
use
under
the
zoning
regulations,
but
everything
else
that
they
plan
to
do.
N
There
is
dependent
on
funding
opportunities
and
when
they
might
arise,
and
what
that
might
look
like
is
just
very
unsure
at
this
time.
I
think
one
thing
that
speaks
to
the
Comfort
level
of
acbc
with
this
project
is
the
fact
that
one
of
the
things
they'd
like
to
do
is
provide
an
employee
daycare
in
the
building,
so
they're
very
comfortable
having
their
own
children
be
in
a
facility
in
which
you
know
this
kind
of
operation.
This
warming
station
might
might
occur.
N
As
you
know,
the
binghamton's
police
department
handles
downtown
Binghamton
and
they
are
familiar
with
the
facility
that
has
been
open
since
May
and
that's
in
your
packet
as
well.
His
letter
indicates
a
concern
of
his
with
respect
to
individuals
being
released
from
Correctional
Facilities
right
out
into
the
street,
so
if
someone
gets
released
and
it's
cold
outside
they're
outside
and
that's
a
problem
that
that
he's
experiencing
I
I
would
also
just
like
to
point
out
one
paragraph.
He
says.
Currently,
the
existing
comfort
center
accommodates
approximately
25
guests.
N
Each
evening
they
provided
834
nights
of
safe,
crime-free
abuse,
free
sleep
for
those
in
need.
15
guests
receive
Sheriff's,
IDs,
health
insurance
and
five
individual
individuals
at
the
center
are
now
employed,
and
that's
just
the
beginning.
We
expect
to
have
a
very
similar
experience
at
the
warming
station,
which
again
is
not
open
all
the
time,
but
in
in
the
winter
months
and
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
received
a
few
additional
letters
that
we
received
after
we
submitted
the
packet
I.
Believe
the
congresswoman
lopardo.
N
Excuse
me,
that's
probably
a
little
too
close,
Mr,
Wexler
and
I
believe
there
was
also
one
from
Senator
Webb.
But
you
have
the
list
of
people.
We
have
sheriffs,
we
have
Assembly
women,
we
have
Senators,
we
have
City
Council
Members.
We
have
social
services
Commissioners
the
executive
director
of
the
YWCA,
the
executive
director
of
Outreach
Ministries,
various.
N
You
know
the
United
Way
opportunities
from
Broome
The
Volunteers
of
America
I
think
that
it's
just
Undisputed
that
this
type
of
facility
is
necessary
and
I
was
trying
to
think
about
what
the
best
endorsement
for
acbc
could
be,
and
and
for
me
and
I,
don't
know
about
everyone
here,
but
the
best
endorsement
I
could
give
them.
Is
that
I
didn't
know
about
them
and
I've
lived
here
for
my
entire
life.
N
I
had
no
idea,
they
existed,
I
didn't
know
what
they
did
and
I
I
think
that
the
fact
that
they
have
sort
of
operated
in
such
a
positive
way
for
50
years
with
very
little
hoopla
and
the
number
of
people
that
they
have
assisted
is
is
just
amazing,
they're,
quiet,
they're,
effective
the
number
of
individuals
that
they
serve
just
speaks
to
the
organization's
commitment
and
they
are
uniquely
qualified
to
provide
these
life-saving
services
to
our
most
vulnerable
community
members.
P
I,
don't
really
have
anything
to
add
just
happy
to
answer
any
questions
and
hopefully
we'll
be
able
to
move
forward
and
kind
of
know
know.
What's
next
for
us
with
this
project,
one
of
the
letters
I
I
will
say
this.
You
know
I
had
heard
that
a
woman
froze
to
death
on
Court
Street
last
winter,
but
councilwoman
Friedman
referenced,
The
Woman
by
name.
Her
name
was
Angela
Cade
and
I.
P
Didn't
know
that
until
I
got
this
letter
yesterday,
but
that
really
struck
a
chord
with
me
that
you
know,
like
an
actual
human
being,
a
woman
froze
to
death
last
year.
So
we're
hoping
to
not
have
circumstances
like
this,
and
this
is
a
voluntary
service.
So
we're
not
you
know
no
one's
directed
to
come
to
us.
It's
just
for
people
that
really
just
need
to
be
out
of
the
cold
for
the
night.
E
A
Right,
one
just
right
off
the
bat
one
important
question
so
of
the
building.
What
percentage
of
what
we
are
looking
at
tonight
is
this
warming
station.
This
is
a
very
small
right.
A
All
right
so
2
000
square
feet
out
of
63
000
square
feet.
So
what
we
are
looking
at
and
reviewing
tonight
is
a
small
warming
station
in
an
enormous
building,
correct
and,
like
you
said,
if
you
come
back
with
future
plans,
you
will
be
back
here
and
we
will
be
having
public
hearings
for
that,
whatever
you
decide
to
do
for
other
stuff,
we'll
be
in
the
same
position.
B
Yeah
question
for
the
applicant
during
your
statement,
did
I
hear
correctly
that
there's
going
to
be
a
background
check
to
deny
entry
to
felons
did
I
hear
that
correctly.
P
So
we
will
not
take
anyone
that
has
a
charge
of
a
sex,
offense
or
an
arson
conviction
and
we
do
have
access
and
we're
actually
the
only
shelter
in
the
area
that
has
access
to
the
New
York
State
unified
court
system.
So
we
have
been
doing
our
due
diligence
with
anyone
entering
the
United
Presbyterian
Comfort
station
and
only
11
of
individuals
have
had
any
criminal
history
whatsoever.
So
the
the
restrictions
we
would
not
allow
a
sex,
offense
conviction
or
an
arson
conviction.
Q
As
we
know,
many
people
come
in
without
identification.
So
how
do
you
approach
that
scenario.
P
So
what
we
have
been
doing,
and
the
supervisor
of
our
comfort
center
major
made
arrangements
with
the
sheriff
for
us
to
bring
people
in
the
morning
will
take
about
four
people
at
a
time
to
go
up
to
the
Broome
County
Jail
get
their
fingerprints
get
their
ID
and
then
then
we
have
that
for
them.
P
I
This
is
more
of
a
procedural
question,
but
I
think
that
the
note
this
follows
Steve's
email
from
yesterday
in
letters
are
sent
to
the
group
of
people
that
lived
TW,
said
200
feet
from
the
building
and
I
just
took
a
rough
survey.
There
are
73
people
in
the
crowd
is
about
how
many
letters
went
out
and
the
idea
roughly.
I
Just
roughly
up,
okay,
that's
I
was
just
curious
because
it
seems
like
we
have
a
very
large
crowd
tonight.
This
because
I
know
the
Kilmore
roof.
Probably
doesn't
have
many
people
here,
yep
just
curious.
K
Just
a
couple
of
questions
just
to
make
sure
I
understand
more
on
the
background
check,
because
I
don't
know
that
if
that
issue
could
come
up
during
either
the
prior
appearances
you
had
in
front
of
us,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I
understand.
So
someone
comes
to
you
whom
you
don't
already
know
of
you're,
not
working
with
this
individual.
They
have
an
ID
you're
able
to
search
the
database
on
the
fly
to
make
the
decision
to
let
them
in
or
not.
K
And
you
said
if
they
were
convicted
of
sex,
offense
or
arson
they're
not
permitted.
Yes,.
P
P
Of
the
Only
Rule
outs
are
the
sex
offense
and
the
arson
status,
and
so
far
of
all
the
that
have
come
since
April
27th
only
11
percent
had
any
criminal
background.
Largely
who's
coming
are
people
with
physical
disabilities,
some
mental
health
disabilities,
we've.
If
you
went
to
any
restaurant
right
now
and
ran
a
criminal
background
check,
it
would
be
way
more
than
11
percent
foreign.
N
I
think
also
one
of
the
things
that
you'll
see
in
your
packet
we've
tried
to
provide
you
lists
of
a
similar
warming
station.
There's
tons
of
I
mean
they're,
certainly
not
a
new
invention.
Other
communities
I
think
we
have
a
letter
in
there
from
a
a
facility
towards
the
east
of
us
they're,
not
new.
We
certainly
borrowed
practice
and
procedure
from
these
existing
locations.
They
visited
the
locations
and
that's
that's
really
based
on
their
experience
with
with
the
facility
on
Chenango,
Street
and
and
what
we've
seen
happen
over
the
last
few
months.
K
N
The
other
plans
are
still
on
the
table,
they
own
the
property.
So
you
know
they're
invested
in
the
property.
N
Perhaps
they
would
seek
another
location,
but
a
lot
of
the
locations
would
be
fronting
on
Clinton
Street
in
the
neighborhood.
Q
A
All
right,
any
other
questions
comments
before
we
open
the
public
hearing
all
right.
So
this
is
a
holdover
public
hearing.
We
never
closed
it
from
the
first
time.
You
guys
were
here
because
we
knew
you
probably
were
coming
back
with
additional
information.
So
this
is
a
continuation
of
the
previous
public
hearing
all
right.
So
just
a
reminder
that
all
your
comments
are
aimed
towards
us.
A
The
applicant
is
going
to
go
sit
in
the
crowd
and
listen.
Please
don't
attempt
to
enter
into
a
dialogue
with
them
and
again
there
we're
going
to
limit
comments
to
five
minutes
all
right.
So
anybody
who
would
like
to
speak
about
the
project
please
come
to
the
microphone
and
we'll
get
everybody
in
so
I.
Guess
just
cue
up
to
the
side.
If
you're
waiting
in
line
to
go
next.
R
R
Just
a
few
weeks
ago
in
this
chamber,
I
again
share
that
we've
seen
the
increases
of
over
70
percent
among
families
experiencing
homelessness
within
the
city
20.
If
we
look
at
increases
among
individuals
last
year,
over
2300
individuals
had
to
access
emergency
shelter
within
Binghamton
and
Broome
County,
because
they
had
no
other
housing
option
that
includes
over
430
families
with
children.
R
R
Hers
is
Not
The
Only
Name
that
we
could
share
Street
Outreach
teams,
just
this
last
winter,
work
closely
with
an
unhoused
man
who
had
to
have
a
leg
amputation
due
to
frostbite
because
of
the
extent
to
which
he
had
been
exposed
to
the
superior
elements.
Around
Christmas
homelessness
is
always
alive
and
death
situation,
always
but
during
the
winter,
even
more
so.
R
Much
of
the
opposition
to
this
project
is
predicated
on
what
experts
within
the
field
know
to
be
a
false
association
between
homelessness
and
increases
in
crime.
You
have
that
report
in
your
packet.
It's
been
debunked
over
and
over
again
and
Carmela
represented
that
well
in
her
11
percent
with
criminal
charges
comment.
R
City
Council
in
this
very
chamber
for
the
last
decade
and
a
half
has
refused
to
address
the
deficits
in
affordable
housing
that
exists
within
the
city
and
it's
because
of
those
deficits
that
shelters
are
having
to
expand
because
of
those
deficits.
Dss
is
having
to
add
contracts
and
because
of
those
deficits,
acbc
is
proposing
to
do
what
will
be
literal
life-saving
work
in
putting
a
roof
over
humans
heads.
S
I'm
Mr
khachadorian,
some
of
our
properties
border.
This
building
I
speak
for
my
family,
since
my
brother,
Henry,
passed
away
and
I've
had
several
problems
myself.
S
I
just
want
to
address
this
issue.
First
of
all,
the
parking
issue
hasn't
been
brought
up.
They
claim
they
have
plenty
of
parking.
They
do
not
all
right.
She
was
here.
Carmelo
was
here
and
she
said
that
there
would
be
plenty
of
parking.
They
needed,
150,
more
employees.
Now
that
came
out
of
her
own
mouth.
S
There
is
not
that
many
parking
spaces
in
that
parking
matter
of
fact,
I
can
tell
you
now
they're
parking
eight
to
ten
feet
into
my
property
right
at
this
time.
As
I
speak
to
you,
the
property
was
surveyed,
I
know
where
the
stake
is,
and
their
pavement
goes
onto
my
property
and
they're
parking.
45
cars
no
I,
take
that
back.
17
parking
spaces
are
parked
on
my
property.
S
S
The
person
that
was
breaking
into
vehicles
that
I
have
on
my
property
was
break
broken
into
my
truck.
When
I
was
coming
back
from
the
hospital,
I
was
taking
care
of
my
brother
Henry
I
caught
him
in
my
truck
I
pulled
in
it
was
around
5
30
in
the
morning,
starting
to
be
daylight.
Out
in
this
is
in
May.
S
S
That
is
the
same
person
that
broke
other
windows
and
the
in
the
on
the
lot.
I'm.
Sorry
on
the
lot,
and
not
only
did
he
break
in
to
my
vehicles
just
a
week
or
two
later,
acbc's
Vehicles
were
broken
into
their
own
Vehicles
parking
on
the
Ida's
property
that
is
leased
by
Mark
hibner
that
they
Park
on
and
their
personal
vehicles,
because
they
don't
have
enough
parking
on
their
own
site
and
she
claimed
another
100
150
more
employees.
S
There
is
not
parking
there
at
all,
not
enough
and
there's
other
issues,
and
that
person
was
one
of
the
people
that
I
used
to
take
down
to
acbc
at
the
colonial
building.
When
I
had
the
transportation
company
and
I.
No
wonder
he
called
me
out
by
name
and
then
ran
as
soon
as
I
caught
him
in
my
truck,
that
I
had
to
replace
the
driver's
side
window
in
ask
for
a
rifle
through
the
truck
he
rifled
through
other
vehicles
on
the
property
after
he
broke
more
windows,
as
he
did.
S
Acbc's
Vehicles
parked
further
north
in
the
fence
line
that
the
that
they
used
from
the
Ida
all
right.
I
don't
want
to
hear
that.
That's
not
going
to
draw
undesirables!
S
That's
a
pie
in
the
sky
and
I.
Don't
want
to
even
hear
that
discussion
at
all,
none
they're
down
in
our
first
Ward.
Now
it's
going
to
get
worse
and
it's
going
to
get
worse
and
I,
don't
believe
this
started
with
Cuomo
when
he
released
a
lot
of
them
from
up
at
the
Developmental
Center
and
put
them
in
the
city
of
Binghamton.
The
the
walk,
the
streets
that
building
up
on
Glenwood
Road
is
not
occupied,
is
at
full
capacity.
Why
aren't
they
using
that
building
since
they're
funded
by
the
state
as
a
non-profit
I?
S
S
S
Somebody
was
there
with
a
some
kind
of
a
saw
battery
type
operated,
saw
since
there's
no
power
there
and
they
cut
the
locks
going
into
the
gate
bordering
my
property
in
Theirs
to
access
either
my
property
or
their
property
I'm
sure
it
was
their
property
and
they
just
cleaned
out
the
visitation,
vegetation,
I'm,
sorry
and
Greenery
in
that,
in
that
Alleyway
it
was
bad.
It
was
really
bad.
It
grows
up
like
real
fast
in
three
or
four
years,
and
recently
the
police
told
me.
S
I
was
talking
to
the
detective
about
the
break-ins
in
the
cars
and
he
said
they
were
trying
to
access
their
cameras
that
are
on
their
building
when
the
cameras
I
believe
they're
not
being
they're
not
used
or
they're
dummies.
I,
don't
know
what
the
story
is,
but
they're
having
a
hard
time
trying
to
get
that
video
and
they're
claiming
there's
rumors,
claiming
they're
going
to
put
a
lot
more
cameras
up
now.
That
may
be
a
good
thing
as
long
as
they're
workable,
all
right
all.
H
T
How
are
you
doing
today?
My
name
is
Christopher
Scott
and
the
reason
why
I'm
here
today
is
because
in
2017
I
came
home
from
federal
prison
and
when
I
came
home,
I
didn't
really
know
what
I
wanted
to
do,
but
I
knew
I
didn't
want
to
commit
crime.
U
T
I
knew
I
needed
help,
so
in
that
regard,
I
was
set
to
acbc
by
my
federal
parole
officer,
while
at
acbc
I
was
able
to
just
get
these
resources
that
were
unbeknownst
to
me
as
a
former
criminal
someone
who
was
trying
to
change
my
life
so
in
the
process
of
going
there,
I
ended
up
getting
an
opportunity
to
work
there
and
I've
been
there
since
2017.,
and
the
reason
why
I
want
to
tell
you
this
story
is
because
of
the
11
of
the
people
who
had
criminal
histories.
T
One
of
them
could
have
been
someone
like
me
right
coming
home
with
nothing.
Nowhere
to
go
and
I
could
easily
said
you
know
what
the
hell
with
this
I'm
gonna
just
go
and
do
crime
again,
but
I
had
an
agency
that
didn't
judge
me,
didn't
care
about
stigma
and
offered
me
an
opportunity,
and
here
I
am
sitting
in
front
of
you
guys.
Another
thing
I
want
to
say
is
what
is
going
on
in
the
world
today.
What
is
wrong
with
us?
T
Why
are
we
even
here
when
we
had
people
freezing
outside
and
we
don't
want
to
have
a
a
place
for
them
to
go,
because
we
want
people
to
go
to
a
bar
and
they
want
to
have
to
they
want
somewhere
to
have
hardware
stores
and
stuff?
This
is
this
is
insane
that
we
have
to
be
here
and
fight
for
people
to
be
warm
and
safe.
Everybody
here
has
an
opportunity
to
go
home
and
sleep
and
not
worry
about
it.
Some
people
don't
and
the
fact
that
we're
here
fighting
for
this
is
insane
I.
T
Just
don't
understand
it
and
I
understand
people
have
their
opinions
in
terms
of
what
this
warming
station
will
bring.
Well
I'll
tell
you
what
it
will
bring
it'll
bring
safety
it'll
bring
safety
to
the
community.
That's
supposed
to
it
because,
like
the
gentleman
disposed,
someone
broke
into
his
car.
Well,
we
don't
have
a
normal
station
right
there.
Now
we
don't
have
clients
there,
so
whoever
broken
his
car.
Maybe
if
we
had
a
warm-up
station,
they
wouldn't
have
been
out
at
5
30
in
the
morning.
C
V
I
live
in
Owego
I
lived
in
Binghamton
for
15
years
and
wow
I
never
realized
about.
V
V
I
mean
it
was
freezing
I
just
wanted
to
throw
the
tragic
on
you
know
it
was
freezing
I'm
hearing
this
Rumble
I
thought
it
was
the
animal
so
I'd
Slide
the
door
to
the
dumpster
open
and
all
the
garbage
was
like
ripped,
open
and
I'm,
seeing
it
move
when
I
opened,
the
top
of
the
dumpster
A,
a
husband
and
wife
was
sleeping
under
the
trash
in
the
cold.
You
know
and
and
I
asked
the
guy
where's
your
clothes
at.
V
V
I
asked
him,
you
know
what
I
got
a
couple
of
bucks.
Would
you
like
to
go,
get
something
to
eat
and
he
said
no,
we
ate
what
we
found
in
the
trash
we're
full
and
he
said
we
appreciate
it.
We're
sorry
for
any
intervening.
You
know
and
I
felt
so
bad
about
that.
You
know
and
I
told
the
guy.
You
know
that
we
didn't
have
a
warming
sense,
or
none
of
that
he
just
didn't,
have
no
place
to
go
with
his
wife.
V
You
know
what
that's
my
experience
and
you
know
what
I
hope
this
woman
sent
to
I
think
it
really
will
help
a
lot
of
people
because
I
think
we're
full
right
now.
You
know,
and
it's
sad
that
we
don't
take
pedophiles
and
awesomeness
and
I
understand.
We
got
rules
because
of
women's
safety
and
other
people's
safety,
but
I
hope
they
come
to
a
place
for
those
people
too,
because
we
are
here
to
help
people.
A
E
W
All
right,
thank
you.
So
today
I
sit
before
you
as
a
Living
Testament
to
the
transformative
power
of
Hope
and
compassion
and
Community
Support.
W
So
my
name
is
Becca
Moore
and
I
wanted
to
share
with
you
the
journey
that
began
in
a
really
dark
place
and
find
its
way
to
light
a
journey
that
took
me
to
from
the
depths
of
homelessness,
the
depths
of
drug
addiction,
the
depths
of
alcoholism
to
becoming
a
the
director
of
health
homes
at
the
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County,
an
agency
that
since
I
started
working,
there
has
been
a
Beacon
of
Hope.
Yes,
I
work
at
the
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County,
but
I
don't
speak
on.
You
know.
W
W
Not
too
long
ago,
like
I,
said,
I
was
just
like
many
of
the
individuals
that
we
serve
today,
whether
it
was
10
years
ago,
13
years
ago,
two
years
ago.
It
feels
just
like
yesterday
that
I
was
one
of
these
individuals.
I
was
again,
I
was
homeless.
I
was
caught
in
the
grip
of
addiction
and
and
I
had
no
idea
at
night
time
where
I
would
stay
and
at
that
time
groom.
County
didn't
really
have
anything
after
hours.
W
For
me
to
go
stay
and,
and
so
it
was
I
was
left
to
fend
for
myself.
I
was
left
to
figure
out
where
to
stay
that
night,
if
I
could
find
a
place
to
stay
in
2010.
W
Something
sparked
within
me
and
I
was
able
to
find
my
way
out
of
a
darkness
and
find
my
way
into
recovery.
During
early
recovery.
In
the
beginning
of
my
career,
acbc
emerged
as
a
Guiding
Light
in
my
life.
The
agency's
dedication
to
giving
back
to
the
community
was
something
that
was
completely
a
part
of
like
who
I
wanted
to
be,
and
my
mission
to
give
back
to
the
community
that
I
had
taken
from
so
much
and
wanted
to
provide
a
helping
hand
to
the
most
vulnerable.
W
It
just
resonated
with
me
so
deeply.
So.
Nine
years
ago,
I
did
join
acbc's
team
joined
as
a
counselor
at
first
and
when
I
first
joined
it
was
26
people,
total
staff
that
were
working
there
between
Clinic
administrative
and
supervisory
staff,
and
together
we've
worked
tirelessly
with
an
amazing
executive
director
to
build
the
program
into
what
it
is
now
over.
W
100
staff,
with
several
different
departments
and
I
again,
like
I,
said,
run
the
the
health
home
Department
I
watched
tirelessly
every
day,
as
as
the
health
Home
Care
managers
go
out
and
try
to
find
people
housing
at
the
end
of
the
day
on
a
Friday
at
3
45.
W
When
people
come
in
and
it's
it's
winter
and
it's
cold,
and
we
have
nowhere
to
put
these
people
because
there
is
nothing
available
because
housing
is
scarce
and
it's
too
expensive
for
people
to
find
any
place
to
go,
and
so
as
people
as
human
beings,
not
just
employees
of
the
Addiction
Center
of
Bloom
County.
But
as
people
who
are
actually
invested
in
this
community
and
wanting
to
see
it
better
and
not
just
the
community.
W
But
the
people
who
are
invested
in
people,
people
who
are
invested
in
human
beings
and
want
to
see
good
for
human
beings
in
giving
back
to
other
people,
we
will
make
sure
that
that
person
has
a
roof
over
their
head
for
that
night
for
that
weekend,
for
whatever
it
takes,
one
of
the
most
critical
initiatives
is
the
upcomfort
center,
that
is
at
42
Shenango
Street.
It's
a
Haven
for
those
who
struggle
to
find
a
roof
over
their
heads.
W
It's
a
Haven
that
I
wish
I
could
have
had
back
when
I
was
homeless
on
the
street.
Looking
for
something
looking
for
a
safe
place
to
go.
Looking
for
the
next
meal,
it
Embraces
individuals
who
are
burdened
by
the
High
Cost
of
Living
people
with
children.
There
are
people
who
are
out
there
with
children
who
just
have
no
place
to
go,
because
even
though
yes
I
mean
the
local
Department
of
Social
Services
does
the
best
that
they
can
with
everything
in
the
High
Cost
of
Living.
W
W
W
It
serves
as
a
reminder
that
when
we
come
together
as
a
community
with
empathy
and
understanding
that
we
can
create
an
unbreakable
bond
that
supports
and
empowers
everyone,
that's
involved
as
we
continue
this
journey
forward.
Let's
remember
our
humanity
and
the
power
we
possess
to
make
a
difference
in
the
person's
lives
in
the
community.
I
truly
extend
my
deepest
gratitude
to
acbc
whether
I
work
there
or
not,
to
the
staff
to
the
volunteers
and
supporters
who
have
been
in
the
heart
and
soul
of
this
agency's
mission.
W
Together
as
a
community,
we
have
turned
despair
into
hope
and
change
the
lives
in
profound
ways.
Please
I
I
implore
you
to
to
believe
in
this.
As
we
do,
please
allow
us
to
house
more
of
the
homeless.
The
brutal
nights
of
the
winter
are
coming.
They
are
right
around
the
corner,
it
is
August,
I
am
wearing
a
long
sleeve
dress,
it
is
already
cold.
W
X
X
What
I
would
like
to
say
is
that
my
staff
of
peers-
they
go
out
into
the
community
and
for
me
when
they
go
and
it's
winter
time
and
they
have
to
say
to
another
human
being,
I
don't
have
anywhere
to
take
you.
The
hotels
are
filled
and
it's
late
at
night
and
it's
going
to
be
cold.
Also
the
only
place
I
can
take.
You
is
the
sheriff's
office,
so
perhaps
you
can
sleep,
maybe
on
a
cot
or
on
the
bed.
X
It's
very
hard
and
I
know
that
my
staff,
when
they
come
back
to
the
office
after
having
to
deal
with
another
person
who
has
to
sleep
out
into
the
street
or
maybe
find
a
friend
to
go
to
to
sleep
it's
very
hard
because
they
have
to
go
home
to
their
families
and
they
know
what
they
have
to
come
back
the
next
day
and
face
for
us
having
a
warm
in
Center.
It
would
be
a
great
thing
to
have
because
not
to
be
biased
against
anyone
in
here
or
myself
or
anyone
behind
me,
but
pretty
much.
X
I
have
student
loans,
I
went
to
college
and
I
got
a
master's
degree
in
social
work
and
trust
me,
my
soul.
My
student
loans
are
a
lot
more
than
what
my
house
cost
and
at
any
time,
if
I
had
to
pay
back
those
student
loans
and
I,
don't
have
a
job
they
could
take.
My
house
probably
and
I
could
become
homeless.
X
It
happens.
It
can
happen
to
anyone
I'm
asking
that
I
did
not
go
to
college
in
order
to
great
to
have
a
great
salary,
because
I
work
for
a
non-profit
and
I
come
in
every
day
and
I
give
my
best
to
staff
and
to
homeless
people
who
come
to
our
office.
They
come
for
clothes,
they
come
for
food,
they
come
for
someone
to
talk
to
them.
They
come
for
us
to
transport
them
to
their
medical
appointments.
X
We
here
at
acbc,
we
don't
get
paid
a
lot,
but
we
have
a
really
huge
heart
that
we
open
it
up
and
we
serve
the
community
in
the
wintertime.
Our
heart
hurts
a
lot
and
it
bleeds
because
when
the
hotels
are
filled
and
people
don't
have
somewhere
to
go
to,
we
have
to
drop
them
off
like
we
said
at
the
sheriff's
office
and
leave
them
there
and
then
come
back
and
hope
that
they're,
okay,
so
I
I'm,
literally
begging
that
you
please
approve
this
warming
shelter.
Y
Hello,
everybody,
my
name
is
Danielle
butchko,
dunster
and
I
live
at
14,
Keeler
Ave
in
Binghamton
and
I.
Think
what
I'd
like
to
say
is
that
one
of
the
reasons
that
we're
all
here
is
because
a
lot
of
us
in
this
room
are
scared,
we're
we're
putting
the
cart
before
the
horse.
We
have
to
have
some
faith
that
only
three
to
five
percent
of
those
that
have
a
mental
illness
or
a
physical
illness
have
committed
crimes.
Y
This
isn't
just
about
a
place
to
sleep.
This
is
about
our
community.
I
grew
up
here.
My
grandfather
was
here.
He
was
a
police
officer.
My
parents
are
still
here
my
sister's
still
here
my
brother's
still
here
and
I've
seen
this
community
change
and
it's
always
been
scary.
Change
is
scary,
but
why
are
we
assuming
that?
If
people
sleep
overnight
at
Charles
Street
that
something's
going
to
happen,
I
mean
part
of
this
is
just
faith.
Y
Z
In
our
service
we
service
the
less
fortune
in
our
area
by
offering
groceries
bag,
lunches,
clothing
and
with
other
other
services
we
can
offer
or
direct
them
to
99
of
the
time.
I
depend
on
acbc,
which
I
never
realized
how
valuable
they
were
to
our
area
till
last
September.
They
should
be
embraced
anywhere,
they
go,
they
have
helped
me
with
so
much
I,
can't
even
housing.
Mental
issues.
Z
Z
The
last
survey
done
in
the
United
States
said
that
59
of
Americans
you
and
me
included:
I
won
paycheck
away
from
being
homeless
a
medical
issue,
a
bad
financial
decision
we're
all
there.
It
doesn't
take
much
to
get
there
and
I
think
actually.
Last
year,
I
have
on
my
notes
about
the
lady
who
froze
to
death.
That
is
mind-boggling
to
me.
If
I
had
my
dog
tied
to
a
tree
and
believe
me,
I
should
be
arrested,
I
would
be
arrested,
but
we're
allowing
families
to
live
in
Vans
I
have
a
family
right.
Z
Now
that
came
today.
They
rented
a
U-Haul
because
it's
19.99
a
day
rather
than
a
hotel
for
seventy
dollars
and
they're
working,
so
they
can't
afford
the
hotel
so
they're
living
in
a
U-Haul.
We
had
57
homeless
today
out
of
our
463
people,
men,
women
and
two
families
showed
up
today.
It's
heart-wrenching
to
see
children
with
nowhere
to
go
and
no
no
foreseeable
housing
in
sight.
They
will
probably
be
homeless
when
school
starts
and
they
probably
won't
go
to
school.
Z
So
it's
a
Snowball
Effect
at
every
level,
but
acbc
has
helped
our
organization
in
so
many
ways.
The
director
is
unbelievable.
She
will
be
there
in
a
minute.
They
help
with
mental
issues,
medical
and,
as
I
said,
you
get
a
real
person
and
they
will
contact
you
or
Lead
You
In
the
right
way.
The
Comfort
station
that's
running
right
now.
I
was
very
involved
in
the
beginning,
because
when
I
heard
the
lady
froze
I
went
to
Oneonta,
they
have
a
warming
station
Tanya.
Another
lady
and
I
went
up
to
look
at
it.
Z
We
brought
the
idea
to
Broome
County
many
organizations
looked
at
it,
but
most
of
them
knew
they
couldn't
do
it
with
the
amount
of
security
professionalism.
They
couldn't
do
it
their
plates,
overloaded,
but
Carmella
stepped
up,
and
that's
when
I
really
realized
what
the
group
does.
I
I,
don't
even
know
what
to
say
to
her
other
than
Broome
County
should
just
Embrace
everything
they
offer.
They
will
help
you
in
every
way.
Z
Z
They
come
to
our
line
every
day
in
their
80s
80
83
years
old,
and
they
don't
want
to
be
there,
but
they
can't
afford
to
live
without
it
very,
very
sad
so
now
at
St
Cyril's,
without
the
warming
station
being
available
or
if
it's
overcrowded,
they're
sleeping
in
our
steps
in
our
gazebo
and
the
elevator
outside
the
hall
homelessness
is
Nationwide.
It's
not
going
to
go
away,
it's
like
the
elephant
in
the
room
and
we
have
to
deal
with
it
as
best
as
we
can
and
I
know
for
a
fact.
Z
Z
The
landlord
raised
the
rent
renting
to
students
he
spent
10
months
without
an
apartment,
but
he's
still
working,
and
he
was
so
grateful
to
get
eight
hours
worth
of
sleep
rather
than
two
and
a
half
hours,
that's
basically
porch
surfing
or
sleeping
on
the
river
and
going
to
work.
He
said
he
felt
like
a
whole
new
person.
There
was
a
young
girl
there
at
19,
and
she
said
it
was
the
first
night
her
body
wasn't
violated
in
like
six
months
by
sleeping
inside,
so
I
really
hope
and
pray
that
you
consider
the
warming
station.
AA
If
you
were
to
ask
me
what
the
single
most
pressing
issue
is
for
our
clients,
I,
wouldn't
even
have
to
take
10
seconds
to
think
about
it.
I
would
tell
you
it's
housing,
housing,
housing.
Every
day,
it's
it's
housing!
The
lack
of
affordable
housing
in
the
area
is
keeping
people
trapped
in
cycles
of
poverty
and
homelessness.
AA
I'd
like
you
to
consider
how
difficult
it
would
be
to
tackle
the
task
of
changing
something
anything
about
your
life,
a
big
thing
right,
maybe
I'm,
trying
to
get
custody
of
my
kids
back,
maybe
I'm
trying
to
find
work
when
all
I'm
thinking
about
is
where's.
My
next
meal
coming
from
and
am
I
going
to
have
a
roof
over
my
head
tonight.
How
do
I
have
the
mental
energy
for
that
they
don't.
AA
That
might
be
an
unpleasant
hypothetical
for
us
here,
but
that's
the
lived
reality
of
the
clients
that
myself
and
my
staff
are
working
with
every
day
when
we
provide
people
with
what
they
need
when
we
treat
them
with
dignity
and
respect
they're
able
to
do
the
work
of
building
themselves
back
up
and
I
know.
I
only
have
five
minutes.
I
could
certainly
sit
here
and
point
to
all
the
research
that
suggests
that
we,
when
we
help
people
meet
their
material,
needs
their
material
conditions
that
they
do
better.
AA
But
I
also
know
this,
because
I've
seen
it
happen
with
my
own
eyes,
between
the
excellent
counseling
services
that
we're
offering
and
the
comprehensive
support
from
our
peers
and
our
health
home
clients
are
reporting
and
showing
that
they're
better
able
to
meet
their
goals.
They're
getting
off
the
street
they're
finding
work
they're
eating.
AA
What
excites
me
about
this
project
is
that
it's
not
just
a
place
to
stay
for
a
night.
It's
a
foot
in
the
door
for
that
kind
of
support,
they'll
meet
with
supportive
staff
at
the
shelter
who
can
help
connect
them
to
the
right
supports,
so
they
can
start
to
make
those
difficult
changes
with
a
good
night's
sleep
and
food
in
their
stomach
I'm,
proud
of
the
work
that
we
do
and
I
hope
that
we
can
count
on
the
support
of
this
Council.
Thank
you.
AB
Hello:
everyone,
my
name,
is
Amy
Iverson
I
live
at
34,
Miles,
Street,
Binghamton,
New,
York
I
come
here
threefold,
one
as
a
person
as
a
resident
and
the
first
ward,
two
as
a
person
that
has
faced
homelessness
and
addiction
in
her
past
and
have
over
10
years
of
continuous
sobriety
and
three
as
an
employee
of
acbc
I'm
grateful
to
have
the
employment
that
I
have
with
the
agency
that
I
that
I
work
for
we
do
great
work.
AB
AB
I
have
grandchildren
that
play
in
my
yard,
I
sit
on
my
front
porch
at
night
and
I,
see
homelessness,
I,
see
people
walking
the
streets
right
and
so
as
and
I'm
a
peer
Advocate
right
now,
so
I
do
Outreach
with
the
homeless
in
Tompkins,
County
and
Tioga
County
honestly
work
right
here
in
Binghamton,
although
I
mean
I'm
here
as
well,
so
I'm
able
to
see
to
and
from
work
going
to
St
Char
or
going
to
St
Charles
Street
to
work
and
the
mornings
and
I
see
people
that
are
sleeping.
AB
AB
I
do
believe
that
gentleman
owns
the
property,
so
I
and
the
other
thing
I
want
to
talk
about
is
I
had
the
opportunity
to
start
working
in
the
the
up
come
the
comfort
center
and,
to
my
surprise,
I,
had
to
check
my
own
biases
because
working
with
homelessness
population
in
Ithaca,
let's
say
right:
I'm
working
with
a
lot
of
substance
use
disorder.
AB
So
when
I
went
in
to
work
at
the
Comfort
station,
I
thought
that
I
would
be
encountering
most
of
the
clients
that
I
would
see
at
acbc
and
to
my
surprise,
that
was
not
the
case
as
I
got
to
know
the
people
that
were
utilizing
the
conversation
at
34
Shenango
Street.
What
I
found
out
is
there
were
people
that
were
working.
There
were
people
that
couldn't
afford
the
housing.
AB
You
know
there
were
people
that
had
severe
disabilities,
physical
disabilities
and
mental
health
disabilities
that
weren't
capable
of
doing
the
things
like
making
phone
calls
or
getting
to
DSS
on
the
on
their
own,
and
so,
when
Carmella
had
brought
up
that
only
11
percent
of
those
people
had
criminal
backgrounds.
AB
That's
a
that
statistic
is
factual,
so
you
know,
I
have
to
look
at
like
my
position
and
I
know
that
I
work
for
an
agency
that
not
only
cares
about
the
individuals
that
they
work
for,
but
they
keep,
but
we
care
about
the
community
as
a
whole.
You
know
we
offer
services
that
go
far
beyond
anything
that
I've
ever
encountered
so
I
know
I'm
just
going
to
take
a
drink.
AB
I'm.
Sorry
about
that.
I
know
that
when
I
was
getting
clean
10
years
ago
and
I
was
homeless,
sleeping
underneath
the
Tompkins
Street
bridge
I
had
nowhere
to
go.
I
know
that
I
had
been
sanctioned
from
DSS
and
there
was
nothing
I
could
do
so.
I
had
to
reach
out
and
I
had
to
like
I
didn't
I
was
hopeless
and
in
despair
you
know,
and
I
ended
up
going
to
treatment
even
from
there.
It
was
like
what
was
I
going
to
do
and
at
that
time
thank
God.
AB
We
had
Fairview
because
we
didn't
have
Fairview
the
halfway
house,
I,
don't
know
where
I
would
have
been,
but
it
gave
me
an
opportunity.
So
I
think
that
the
warming
station
is
going
to
give
us
an
opportunity
to
provide
the
services
that
are
lacking
in
the
community,
so
that
people
and
here's
the
other
thing
all
of
the
businesses
that
are
around
that
area
are
now
going
to
have
the
resource
to
be
able.
If
somebody's
sitting
on
the
front
stoop
pick
up,
the
phone
call
us
will
come.
AC
Hi,
my
name
is
Dakota
kamishek
I
live
at
32,
moncho
Street
I'm,
not
a
employee
of
acbc,
but
I
am
in
their
program.
Today.
I
got
over
12
months
clean
because
it
this
time
last
year,
I
was
homeless.
I
was
living
by
the
Nanticoke.
Correct
I
was
sleeping
homeless
for
months,
because
Broome
County
DSS
couldn't
house
me.
Why?
Because
I
had
a
dog
I
wasn't
giving
up.
My
dog
I
just
lost
my
father.
AC
It's
the
only
other
thing
I
had
was
my
dog
I
wasn't
giving
her
up
so
I
lived
by
the
Nanticoke
Creek
in
it
in
Endicott
for
over
three
four
months
last
year
in
the
winter,
when
it
was
starting
to
snow
and
everything
freezing,
my
balls
off
I
could
have
died
out
there
today,
I
got
12
months
clean,
but
it's
because
of
acbc.
Why
I
got
that
clean
time
right
now,
I
wouldn't
be
here
if
it
wasn't
for
long
they've
helped
me
through
and
through
for
my
mental
health.
AC
My
stability,
everything
now
I
got
an
apartment.
I've
had
an
apartment
for
about
four
months:
I'm
standing
on
my
two
feet
and
I'm
doing
good,
but
I'm
only
doing
good,
because
acbc
was
there
to
help
me
by
my
side
when
DS
Josh
wanted
to
help
me
when
nobody
else
would
help
me
acbc.
Was
there
I'm
the
one
of
the
people
that
need
this
program?
I
needed
the
program,
but
they
weren't
there
for
me.
So
if
you
guys
are
really
going
to
turn
this
down,
you're
awesome
up
people.
AD
All
right,
my
name
is
Jacques
Cosby
I
live
on
Hazel
Street
in
Binghamton,
First
Ward
I
wasn't
going
to
talk
because
I
hate
talking
in
front
of
people,
but
the
the
gentleman
who
started
this
off
really
bothered
me.
Charles
Street
is
not
my
backyard
like
his
but
functionally
my
backyard.
I
drive
past
it
every
day,
but
the
reality
of
the
situation
is
homeless.
People
are
in
the
community
right
now,
regardless
of
this
warming,
Center
happens
or
not.
AD
I
run
a
business
in
Binghamton
in
the
First
Ward
I'm,
in
contact
with
landlords
all
the
time
because
of
my
business,
the
number
of
houses
that
get
broken
into
is
a
sounding
and
I'm
sure
some
of
those
are
homeless.
People
who,
when
your
option,
is
freeze
to
death
or
commit
a
crime,
I
know
what
I'm
picking
10
times
out
of
10..
You
know
I'm
not
going
to
sit
in
the
street
and
freeze
to
death
when
I
know.
AD
There's
a
house,
that's
abandoned,
I
can
smash
a
window
and
at
least
get
out
of
the
weather,
so
I've
been
in
the
First
Ward
for
about
15
years
owned
my
home,
and
there
was
a
winter
where
my
garage
got
broken
into
and
I
looked
inside
and
it
looked
like
someone
built
themselves
a
nest,
and
you
know
what
I
did
I
forgot.
I
saw
it
come
summertime
I,
fixed.
AD
Thanks
but
I'm
good
I'm,
summertime
I
fixed
my
door,
put
new
lock
on
hadn't
had
that
problem
since,
but
anyone
who
opposes
this
I
would
challenge
you
how's
a
homeless
person
in
your
house,
the
problems
there.
The
problem
is
there,
you
can
either
fix
it
yourself
or
you
can
let
a
company
that
knows
what
they're
doing
fix
it.
So
that's
my
two
cents
as
someone
who's
been
here
for
15
years
and
runs
a
business
in
the
area.
AE
Good
evening
Angela
Cade,
a
member
of
the
Binghamton
Community,
passed
away
in
December
of
2021..
She
had
housing
and
Healthcare
insecurities
when
considering
the
potential
Community
impact
of
a
code,
blue
warming.
Center
several
factors
must
be
considered.
A
warming
Center
can
help
reduce
the
risk
of
cold
related
injuries,
illnesses
and
even
death
to
vulnerable
populations
by
providing
a
safe
haven
during
extreme
weather,
warming
centers
will
reduce
the
burden
on
Emergency
Services,
like
hospitals
and
law
enforcement.
AE
The
presence
of
a
warming
Center
can
influence
how
we
as
a
community,
perceive
and
respond
to
homelessness.
That's
exactly
why
we're
here
today,
every
person
in
our
community
is
important.
It's
my
hope
that
we
can
find
some
common
ground
to
move
forward
and
Foster
greater
empathy
and
understanding
for
each
other.
The
proposed
acbc
code,
blue
warming
Center,
will
be
fully
integrated
into
the
existing
network
of
Social
Services
for
the
homeless
population.
AE
The
coordination
will
help
ensure
that
individuals
who
use
the
center
are
connected
to
resources
such
as
housing
assistance,
Health
Care,
Services,
mental
health
substance
use
treatment
and
even
Employment
Services
through
our
robust
Broome
County
Career
Center
I'd
like
to
introduce
myself
at
this
time.
My
name
is
Jeff
Pryor
I'm,
a
resident
of
Binghamton
I
live
at
six
Linden
Street
I'm.
Also
a
small
business
owner
with
an
S
corporation
I
moved
to
Broome
County
in
January
of
2006.
AE
After
my
release
from
incarceration
from
an
Indiana
State
Prison
I
graduated
from
Binghamton
University
in
May
of
2010,
with
my
Master's
in
social
work
at
graduation
I
accepted
a
position
with
the
Southern
Tier
AIDS
program
to
build
and
design
Broome
County's
first
prison
re-entry
program
in
2018.
I
wrote
a
grant
and
we
now
are
funding
the
first
Broome
County
Jail
reentry
program.
I've
been
the
director
of
re-entry
services
for
Broome
County
for
13
years.
AE
We
have
served
136
Unique
Individuals
at
the
up
comfort
center,
since
we
opened
on
April
27th.
48
percent
have
identified
substance
use
disorders,
52
percent
have
some
sort
of
mental
health
diagnosis
and
only
11
percent
are
formerly
incarcerated.
My
staff
have
successfully
assisted
four
guests
into
their
own
Apartments
15
have
received
either
a
New
York
state,
ID
or
Sheriff's.
Id
10
now
have
health
insurance,
reducing
the
tax
burden
that
you
and
I
pay
into
every
year,
because
now
they
are
paying
into
the
tax
services.
AE
10
individuals
have
been
engaged
in
Mental,
Health,
Services
and
the
most
exciting
thing
I
can
say
is
six
people
are
now
fully
employed
at
companies
supporting
Broome
County's
tax
base,
yet
they're
still
homeless,
because
they
don't
have
enough
money
to
get
an
apartment
or
find
an
apartment
to
meet
their
needs.
You've
heard
over
and
over
about
what
the
code
blue
warming
Center
is
so
I'm
not
going
to
go
into
that,
but
I
want
to
cover
just
a
couple
important
points:
koblu
warming
centers
cannot
end
homelessness.
They
simply
provide
immediate
relief
during
severe
weather.
AE
Among
the
things
that
makes
acbc
unique
is
their
staff
acbc
staff
working
inside
the
center
are
all
New
York
State
credentialed
Recovery
peer
Advocates.
What
you
may
not
realize
is
peer
recovery,
Advocates
or
individuals
who
have
personal
lived
experience
with
substance
use
disorders,
mental
health
challenges,
homelessness
and
behavioral
health
conditions.
AE
The
credentialing
comes
from
the
New
York
State
Office
of
Addiction
Services
and
supports
and
credentialed
staff
of
over
500
hours
working
in
the
field.
The
new
comfort
center
is
going
to
be
open
at
5
pm
to
10
p.m.
Some
of
this
you've
heard
and
I
didn't
realize
so
much
would
come
out.
We
will
take
after-hour
discharges
from
hospitals
referred
from
DSS
after
hours
and
those
dropped
off
by
the
police
at
any
time,
guests
leave
the
morning
the
same
manner
that
they
arrived
at
7
A.M
food
is
provided
for
guests.
AE
Upon
arrival
and
the
lights
go
out
at
10
pm
guests
will
be
admitted
until
all
40
cots
are
filled
once
the
cuts
are
filled.
Our
staff
will
work
with
the
local
police
department
to
find
after
hours
housing
through
the
after
hours
Social
Services
Department.
This
is
a
temporary
center.
It's
only
open
on
code
blue
evenings.
There
were
122
mornings
last
year
that
were
identified
as
code
blue.
That
was
the
fifth
largest
increase
since
1989..
AE
We
work
with
agencies
such
as
Family
Enrichment,
Network,
Catholic,
Charities,
Community,
Options,
Mental,
Health
Association
for
the
Southern
Tier
Southern
Tier,
AIDS
program,
housing
opportunities
for
Southern
Tier,
greater
opportunities
for
broom.
In
fact,
we
have
42
established
Partnerships
of
community
agencies
that
we
all
work
with
on
a
daily
basis.
AE
We
have
20,
Vehicles
rides,
can
be
arranged
to
these
agencies,
as
well
as
voices
recovery,
primary
care,
doctor
appointment
and
community
centers
that
are
already
established
in
our
community.
Our
code,
blue
Center,
will
provide
all
these
services
to
our
guests.
In
contrast,
when
DSS
places
a
homeless
person
with
severe
and
persistent
mental
illness,
thank
you.
They
are.
They
have
to
fend
for
themselves
and
there's
no
support
in
place.
Adam
KIPP,
a
local
business
owner,
made
a
very
important
point
at
the
last
meeting
and
he
said
and
I'm
paraphrasing.
This
is
not
a
homeless
shelter.
AE
A
AE
Wrap
up,
are
you
almost
done?
Yes,
all
right.
Thank
you.
My
final
points
that
you
should
hear
is
every
person
entering
the
center
undergoes
a
complete
background
check.
I
know
we
mentioned
that
earlier
we
go
by
their
name
and
their
date
of
birth,
and
if
the
name
and
date
of
birth
don't
match,
it
won't
pull
up
a
background
I'm
one
of
the
individuals
that
does
that
for
every
person
entering
11
percent
and
we've
had
no
violent,
felony
individuals
stay
with
us.
Since
we
opened
our
Center,
we
have
handheld
wands.
AE
Everyone
goes
through
this
metal
detector,
the
same
metal
detectors
that
are
in
prisons
and
airports.
Today,
where
do
they
go
if
they
don't
come
here,
they're
outside
Saint
Cyril
served
10
000
people
in
June
in
10062
in
July
they're
already
here,
all
we
want
to
do
is
house
40
individuals
from
dying.
Thank.

I
own
99,
Clinton,

and
as
a

board.
If
you
want
to
see
the
city
Decay
even
more,
then
you
should
Pander
more
to
Crime
poverty,
drug
addiction,
mental
illness,
Driveway
business,
and
then
your
solution
will
be
all
solved.
Just
one
more
building
off
the
tax
rolls
to
pass
on
to
us
taxpayers.
AF
I.
Think
that
says
it
all.
I
run
a
business
I'm,
a
very
compassionate
person,
I've
hired
amputees,
crackheads
drunks
I've
worked
with
these
people,
but
it's
not
good
for
business
on
the
street.
This
is
this
is
one
of
the
last
bastions
of
commercialism
left
in
Binghamton
and
you're,
slowly,
destroying
it,
you
allowed
the
greater
Binghamton
mental
health
club
come
and
what
what
happened
there.
Now
we
have
another
empty
building:
waiter
waiting
for
another
NGO
to
fill
it
so
to
drive
away
more
business.
I
mean
business
is
what
keeps
this
community
going?
AF
It's
not
crime,
poverty,
weed
and
seed,
and
then
I
mean
as
a
planning
board.
How
do
you
envision
the
city?
It's
dying?
Are
you
going
to
Pander
to
more
crime?
More
poverty
and
believe
me,
I,
mean
is.
Is
that
what's
going
to
happen,
then
it'll
just
be
one
more
business
gone
fewer
people
employed
more
homeless
people
showing
up
more
Depression,
more
drug
addiction,
I
mean
what
you
people
actually
Envision
for
the
city.
That's
what
I
would
like
to
know.

I
do

it's
2022
who
buys
antiques
anymore
anyway?
But
sorry
Excuse,
excuse
me,
but
this
is
passionate,
because
here's
the
thing
homelessness
is
real.
People
are
dying.
Drug
addiction
is
real
people.
It's
a
thing
right.
The
Union
hotel
be
part
of
the
solution,
not
part
of
the
problem
right
homeless.
We
are
talking
about
human
beings
who
just
need
a
place
to
sleep.
AH
AH
Yes,
you
can
look
at
me
today
and
me,
and
and
I
may
be
an
employee
of
acbc,
but
I
will
always
be
the
homeless
drug
addict
who
had
to
go
to
the
YMCA
after
coming
out
of
the
Binghamton
police
station,
because
I
didn't
have
anywhere
to
go.
Our
programs
are
closing.
Fairview
is
no
longer
Fairview,
they're
they're
being
sold
to
Greater
opportunities
ASC.
You
can't
just
go
there
anymore.
This
is
the
need.
This
isn't
just
something
that
we
want
to
do
because,
oh
you
know
we.
AH
AI
Ladies
and
gentlemen
of
the
planning
board,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
you
this
evening.
My
name
is
Jason
kovarek
and
I
am
the
owner
of
cavara
Hardware,
located
at
276,
Clinton
Street,
now
I
think
we
need
to
level
set
this
conversation
here,
because
nobody
is
here
to
dispute
acbc's
mission.
Nobody
is
here
to
not
be
compassionate
to
homeless.
Folks,
I
think
we
would
all
agree
that
everyone
here
is
compassionate
towards
the
homeless
in
some
degree
way
shape
or
form,
but
I'd
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
make.
AI
We
are
currently
circulating
a
petition
and
I'd
like
to
read
that
to
this
board
tonight
we,
the
business
owners
and
residents
located
in
and
around
binghamton's
First
Ward,
oppose
a
special
permit
for
use
granted
to
the
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County
for
warming,
shelter
located
on
Charles
Street
in
Binghamton.
For
the
following
reasons:
number
one.
There
has
been
no
Outreach
by
the
Addiction
Center
of
Broome
County
to
any
of
the
local
businesses
or
residents
that
could
be
impacted
by
an
influx
of
homeless
persons
into
the
First
Ward
of
Binghamton.
AI
AI
They
have
failed
to
provide
Clarity
regarding
criteria
for
the
selection
process,
for
admitting
admittance
to
the
warming,
shelter
and,
furthermore,
have
not
provided
a
clear
and
defined
process
for
dismissal
of
patrons
that
will
prevent
more
homeless
persons
from
occupying
binghamton's
First
Ward
upon
the
shelter's
daily
closure,
as
of
July
31st.
2023
they
have
failed
to
show
evidence
or
hard
data
of
a
positive
social
or
economic
impact
of
such
a
shelter
that
has
been
erected
in
other
communities.
As
per
the
request
of
this
board,.
AI
This
shelter
is
not
in
line
with
mayor
cram's,
vision
of
a
revitalized,
Clinton,
Street
being
a
natural
extension
of
downtown
Binghamton.
We
believe
that
it
will
significantly
discourage
any
new
businesses,
families
or
students
from
moving
into
the
First
Ward
and
thus
stifle
any
future
economic
growth
of
the
area.
AI
We
believe
that
there
are
other
suitable
locations,
and
this
is
key.
We
believe
that
there
are
other
suitable
locations
with
better
infrastructure
already
in
place
to
house
a
warming,
shelter
that
are
not
in
the
heart
of
Clinton
Street,
an
area
that
is
in
desperate
need
of
revitalization
and
lastly,
the
shelter
will
most
probably
act
as
further
encouragement
to
more
homeless
people,
camping
at
the
site
at
First,
Ward
Park
by
Spring,
Forest
Cemetery,
thus
adding
to
issues
such
as
sanitation
and
potential
crime
in
the
neighborhood.
AI
Now
I'd
like
to
call
out
the
following,
and
thank
them
for
joining
us
in
this
extremely
important
Endeavor.
Obviously,
my
business

Rogers

AI
It's
not
that
we
oppose
helping
the
homeless.
We
do.
We
oppose
the
location
that
is
being
chosen,
the
lack
of
planning
to
detail
the
security
and
the
vision
that's
gone
into
it,
we're
dealing
with
what
ifs.
What
if
we
get
more
funding,
if
this
permit
is
granted
to
them?
What's
to
stop
them
from
turning
this
40-person
warming,
shelter
into
a
400
bed,
warming,
shelter,
I
asked
that
question
in
all
fairness
and
honesty.
AI
AI
The
concrete
details
we'd
like
to
see
those
11
is
the
figure
that
they're
throwing
out
with
people
that
have
been
admitted
with
a
criminal
background,
but
yet
tonight
they
said
that
no
person
with
a
felony
will
be
admitted,
but
then
they
backtracked
and
they
said
well,
it's
only
a
sex,
offense
or
arson.
Those
are
the
only
criteria
that
will
prevent
them
from
being
admitted.
So
let
me
get
this
right.

How
are
you
doing?
My
name
is
Matthew

also

I
live
in

just
sitting
here.
Listening
the
hours
of
the

Center
is
at
night
when
most
of

not
open

if
they
feel
scared
that
burglary
burglary
might
work
happen
or
destruction
to

might
happen.

AJ
O
I'm
Jana,
inglesby
and
I'm
from
Owego
and
I
wanted
to
say
that
I
feel
for
the
businesses.
I
really
do
but
I
think
they're
cutting
off
their
nose.
Despite
their
face.
We
are
bringing
100
employed
people
to
that
building,
whether
we
have
the
warming,
shelter
or
not.
We
are
going
to
be
investing
20
million
dollars
into
the
building
over
the
next
five
years,
so
our
buildings
are
well
maintained.
Anyone
can
go
on
any
of
our
tours.
We've
already
started
the
renovations.
O
We've
been
cleaning
cleaning
up
the
human
species
out
of
our
parking
lot
that
have
been
left
there
over
the
years.
We're
we're
cleaning
it
up.
It's
going
to
be
a
better
place,
but
it's
really
we're
trying
to
increase
that
economy.
Where
we're
at
it's
not
working
we're
overgrown.
We
have
people
sharing
offices,
it's
not.
We
don't
have
any
space.
O
O
We
knew
we
needed
a
special
use
commitment
for
the
the
one
section
of
our
business,
we're
doing
that,
but
the
other
thing
is
we're
going
to
improve
the
economics
in
that
neighborhood
were
going
to
be
buying
gas,
we're
going
to
be
going
shopping
at
lunch,
we're
going
to
be
eating
at
lunchtime
all
those
things
people
eat
at

Already
people
have
been
shopping
at

O
AK
Hi
everybody,
my
name
is
Amanda
Amanda,
Lewis,
I'm,
sorry
I
hate
public
speaking,
but
this
is
just
something
I'm,
so
passionate
about
I'm,
going
to
speak
more
along
the
lines
as
a
patient
of
acbc
I
should
say
previous
patient
of
atvc
acbc
supported
me.
You
know
when
I
had
no
other
support
when
I
was
in
legal
trouble
when
I
was
on
drug
court.
I
actually
graduated
right
in
this
center
right
here
from
Broome
County
drug
court.
AK
Because
of
the
support
that
acbc
provided
me
and
because
of
you
know
my
my
what's
the
word
I'm
looking
for
success,
you
know,
I
was
employed
and
now
I
can
help
those
people
that
struggle
just
like
I
did
I
was
sleeping
behind
houses.
I
was
a
person
out
there
doing
criminal
Behavior,
but
I
had
been
performed
right
and
and
for
the
homeless
individual
that
that
came
up
here
and
spoke.
He
was
speaking
from
his
heart.
AK
He
was
speaking
from
the
pain
that
he
experienced
living
out
behind
my
house
in
endica
for
months
for
months.
While
he
stayed
in
recovery
like
people,
it's
it's
possible
like
recovery,
is
possible
and
with
the
support
of
you
guys
in
a
warming,
shelter
like
it
gives
people
chance
like
these.
Are
humans
and
I'm
just
wondering
about
that
build
out.
You
know,
that's
a
big
buildup
we're
going
to
need
supplies
for
that
stuff.
You
know
Lumber
all
that
type
of
stuff.
So
thank
you.
AL
Hi
I'm
Nora
Heath
I
have
a
business
at
52,
Clinton
Street
been
there
for
25
years.
We've
paid
taxes,
I
totally
totally
understand.
There's
a
huge
drug
problem.
Homelessness
problem
I
have
all
the
compassion
in
the
world
firsthand
experience
from
years
ago,
but
Clinton
Street,
you
know
for
25
years,
I've
gone
to
meetings
and
business
meetings
and
there
was
all
these
dreams
of
all
these
things
that
were
going
to
happen
on
Clinton
Street,
we're
still
waiting
for
Christmas
decorations
for
this
from
the
city,
garbage
cans.
AL
That,
basically,
is
a
shelter
for
homeless
people,
because
that's
all
it's
ever
been
it's
not
on
the
tax
rolls.
It's
an
eyesore
homeless.
People
hang
out
there
I've
seen
crimes
committed
for
the
last
25
years
and
quite
honestly,
I
I,
don't
I
think
there
should
be
a
warming
shelter
just
not
in
a
business
district
it
it.
In
25
years
there
has
been
nothing
but
light
drug
addicts,
crime
I,
have
people
that
I
know
customers.
AL
They
say
they
don't
even
like
coming
to
our
diner,
because
they're
afraid
of
the
neighborhood.
It's
it's
really
getting
a
bad
rep,
reputation
and
again
there's
a
problem.
It
needs
to
be
addressed,
but
we're
a
business
district
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
there's
been
a
lot
of
Promise
of
a
lot
of
opportunities.
Things
going
to
happen.
Just
last
year
there
was
a
big
Grant.
Well,
the
South
Side
got
that
Grant.
We
didn't.
You
know:
we've
been
waiting
for
Grants
forever.
AL
Nothing
is
happening
except
blight.
Drug
addiction
I
saw
two
homeless
people
fighting
across
antitioners
the
other
day.
One
homeless
guy
was
stealing
the
other
homeless
person
stop
and
yes,
they
need
help.
But
I
haven't
seen
the
mental
health
clinic
used
to
be
on
Clinton.
Street
I
haven't
seen
any
benefit
for
all
these
social
programs
to
any
of
our
businesses,
and
we
are
taxpayers.
AL
You
know
a
part
of
our
income
is
supporting
your
salary.
You
know,
I
I
mean
I,
feel
like
Clinton
Street
the
ball's
been
dropped.
All
the
federal
you
know
grant
money.
Everything
goes
downtown
student,
housing,
social
programs,
but
what
about
the
businesses
when
a
lot
of
them
have
left?
Because
they've
given
up
you
know
I
I,
totally
agree.
AL
They
need
a
warming
shelter,
but
not
in
the
business
district,
because
I'm
not
seeing
any
good
results,
and
you
know
the
program,
the
drug.
You
know
that's
a
great
program,
I'm,
not
knocking
that,
but
it's
it's
not
helping
the
existing
businesses
that
pay
taxes
and
pay
taxes
for
a
lot
of
these
social
programs.
AL
AM
I
I
wasn't
expecting
to
speak
today,
but
it
seems,
like
everybody
thought
everybody
here
worked
for
AC
DC
I
do
not
I
work
for
social
services,
Social
Services,
here
in
Broome
County,
my
name
is
Courtney
ellia
I
live
at
49
Vine
Street
on
the
South
Side
I've
lived
in
Binghamton
for
six
years
now
in
Broome
County
for
26
years,
I'm,
also
a
landlord
in
the
city
of
Binghamton
and
just
from
a
social
service
side
of
things.
AM
There
is
a
lack
of
affordable
housing.
There's
a
crisis
here.
Everybody
here
has
been
affected
by
inflation,
but
also
people
who
receive
Social
Services
the
rate
that
they
are
given
for
any
service,
whether
that
be
food,
stamps
temporary
assistance
housing.
It
has
not
gone
up
at
the
same
rate
as
inflation.
So
what
we're
finding
is
that
there
are
more
homeless
people
in
our
area,
because
we
just
don't
have
the
resources
to
provide
hotels.
What
they're
saying
is
accurate.
AM
The
hotels
here
we
have
con
there's
contracts
with
motels
and
hotels
in
the
area
and
what
we
found
during
those
cold
glue
days
is.
There
was
nowhere
to
put
anybody,
so
people
are
are
just
going
wherever
at
my
home
on
the
South
Side
one
of
my
homes,
there's
a
bank
at
lot
next
door
right.
The
city
hasn't
done
anything
about
it
been
vacant
for
three
years,
but
sometimes
I
mean
Vine.
Street
is
a
few
blocks
from
CPAP
I
mean.
Sometimes
there
are
people
wandering
the
streets.
AM
I
mean
there's
been
numerous
police
reports,
so
it
doesn't
matter
where
you
live
or
what's
near
you
per
se.
It
just
is
going
to
be
random,
homeless
people
walking
wherever
wherever
they
can
right.
They
just
don't
have
a
place
to
go
so
by
providing
them
a
safe
space
to
go.
It
works
out
and
truthfully
as
a
resident
of
Binghamton
for
six
years,
Clinton
Street's
been
dying
and
the
only
thing
good.
AM
There
is
probably
the
hardware
store
and
in
the
bar
to
be
quite
honest,
and
it's
not
like
anybody's
walking
down
Clinton
Street
for
fun,
there's
just
there's
just
nothing
there
so
might
as
well.
Thank
you
thank
you.
AN
I'll
be
quick,
I'll
be
quick,
hi,
I'm,
Daniella
and
I
am
an
employee
at
acbc.
I
come
up
here,
I
wasn't
even
gonna
talk,
but
based
on
what
I'm
hearing
is
we're
get
right?
The
reason
we
keep
giving
you
our
stories
is
because
we're
trying
to
give
you
a
background
on
how
acbc
helped,
which
we
all
know
right.
Somebody
mentioned
it.
We
know
what
acbc
is
doing.
We
know
that
they're
not
refuting
that
we're
not
doing
the
things
we're
not
out
there
trying
to
help
the
people.
AN
E
C
AN
C
AN
So
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
I
think
we
do
have
a
passion
for
the
businesses
out
there
I
think
that's
what
you're
missing
like
I
think
we
came
in
here
to
tell
you
about
how
good
acbc
is,
but
we
do
understand
the
value
of
these
local
businesses.
But
what
the
issue
is.
The
homelessness
is
already
there
we're
trying
to
come
in
and
help
them,
because
the
reality
is
like
peer
Advocates
that
work
with
these
people,
even
if
they
don't
want
help.
AN
In
that
moment,
it
has
been
proven
over
and
over
and
over
again
that
repeated
exposure
to
these
peers
will
eventually
get
them
in
a
situation
where
we
can
get
them
help
and
we
can
get
them
off
of
the
street
and
we
can
get
them
out
of
your
businesses,
where
they're
sleeping
where
there
might
be
causing
harm
like
we're,
trying
to
remove
that
out
of
the
community.
That's
all
I
got.
U
Good
evening
everybody
Adam
KIPP
I
own,
a
business
at
246,
Clinton
Street,
going
on
probably
almost
like
two
hours,
so
I
just
want
to
applaud
everybody
here.
Thank
you
for
your
patience
and
hearing
everybody
out
I'd
like
to
applaud
everybody.
They
came
up
here
to
speak
tonight
whether
you
are
supportive
or
against
this.
It
takes
a
lot
to
get
up
in
front
of
people.
U
I
applaud
the
fact
that
acbc
has
so
many
employees
here
speaking
in
support,
acbc
runs
great
programs
and
it's
nice
to
know
that
there
are
so
many
people
that
are
so
passionate
about
what
they
do
in
helping
our
community
I
agree
with
most
things
that
everybody
had
to
say
whether
you're
in
support
of
this
or
against
it.
U
We
have
a
major
homeless
crisis.
I
may
get
my
number
wrong,
but
Jeff
Pryor
said
about
10
000
individuals,
so
40
bets
seems
like
a
drop
in
a
bucket.
We
have
a
land
bank
that
spends
millions
of
dollars
on
one
or
two
houses
that
I
think
that
money
could
stretch
a
little
further.
So
there
are
other
ways
to
combat
the
homeless
problem
here
in
our
here
in
our
city,
I
obviously
am
against
the
warming
Center,
not
that
I,
don't
think
one
is
needed.
U
I,
don't
think
that
this
is
the
correct
area
for
it.
The
first
young
lady
I
spoke
Rebecca,
who
has
been
working
with
homeless
people,
I
I,
don't
remember
how
many
years
she
said
she's
doing
it.
U
U
I
do
understand.
At
the
last
meeting
at
your
request,
acbc
was
asked
if
they
could
show
any
hard
evidence
or
hard
data
of
social
economic
impact,
and
we
still
have
not
heard
that
impact
I
have
just
from
this
one
report:
I
won't
go
through
all
of
my
head,
but
from
the
Journal
of
experimental
criminology
shows
that
the
average
crime
count
per
year
within
300
meters
of
shelters,
Total,
Property
and
Mischief
crime
is
1780,
which
is
almost
five.
U
A
day
breaking
and
entering
residential
is
75,
so
one
about
every
five
days,
Franken
entering
commercial
137,
which
is
one
pretty
much
every
other
day,
almost
600
theft
from
Vehicles,
which
is
just
about
twice
twice
a
day
and
other
theft
709,
which
is
at
least
two
a
day.
U
U
Another
thing
that
a
lot
of
supporters
speaking
tonight,
which
I
100
agree
with
them,
is
how
sad
it
is
to
have
children
walk
on
the
streets.
Children
without
a
place
to
stay
I
have
three
young
children,
myself,
so
I'm,
very,
very
sentimental
to
the
fact
that
every
child
in
this,
not
just
ethnicity,
but
this
entire
country
should
not
have
to
worry
about
their
next
meal
or
where
they're
going
to
be
sleeping.
However,
a
quote
from
the
last
meeting.
U
U
The
intent
is
to
focus
on
single
people,
so
families
will
not,
so
families
can
be
in
the
hotels.
U
U
They're
saying
that
in
the
when
the
problems
is
in
the
hotels,
there's
no
trained
professionals
there
to
help
someone
if
they
were
to
overdose,
and
so
that
does
tell
me
that
we
are
talking
about
people
that
will
be
using
and
maybe
just
going
to
get
somewhere
warm
get
their
fix
in
and
then
immediately
out
in
the
middle
of
the
night,
one
individual
that
was
mentioned
at
a
prior
meeting
of
a
candidate
for
warming
Center
as
an
individual
with
a
mental
health
issue.
U
He
was
in
a
hotel
and
he
got
kicked
out
of
his
hotel
that
the
room
that
they
got
that
we
got
for
him.
He
was
replaced
into
a
new
hotel
the
next
day
and
he
was
kicked
out
of
that
hotel
because
he
was
just
simply
not
stable,
I'm,
just
pointing
out
a
few
quotes
of
some
of
the
information.
That's
kind
of
to
me
kind
of
being
covered
up,
not
necessarily
covered
up,
but
just
just
reworded.
U
Right
if
I
can
just
make
one
last
point,
this
is
an
industrial
park
district,
yes,
but
it
is
still
need
a
special
use
permit
and
at
the
last
meeting,
Tito
had
brought
up
a
segregated
project
and
we
keep
hearing
20
million
dollar
investment
into
this
building.
But
we're
only
hearing
about
this
one
permit
for
this
one
project
correct
so
as
a
segregated
project.
I,
don't
believe
that
is
allowed
regardless.
If
they
have
plans
that
they
may
do
something
the
future
or
may
not,
they
have
brought
it
up
that
they'll
be
investing
20
million
dollars.
E
AO
Evening,
my
name
is
Marianne
Callahan
I
live
at
40,
Elm
Street
I
grew
up
in
the
First
Ward
I.
Also
am
the
chair
of
the
block
grant
the
cdac,
the
citizen
advisory
committee
for
the
black,
Grant
and
I
know
both
from
where
I
live
and
who
I
live
around
and
my
work
on
the
block
grant
that
there
is
a
homeless
problem
and
it's
getting
worse
in
this
community.
AO
E
AO
When
I
was
growing
up,
what
I
would
like
to
suggest
is
no
matter
what
you
guys
decide
about
this
warming
Center
that
this
community
begin
to
work
together
to
solve
the
problems
of
homelessness
and
drug
addiction
and
the
housing
stock
in
this
community,
which
is
rotting
on
the
vine
as
we
have
these
huge
problems
and
I
would
also
ask
that
city
council
be
more
proactive
in
making
sure
that
resources
are
found
that
meet
the
needs
of
this
community.
I'm.
Sure.
AO
In
fact,
I
want
to
recommend
that
the
Addiction,
Center
and
anyone
else
who's
interested
will
come
to
our
first
Ward
neighborhood
watch
meetings
that
we
have
the
first
Tuesday
or
second
Tuesday
of
the
month
at
the
senior
center
on
Clinton
Street,
because
working
together
is
the
only
way
we're
going
to
solve
this
problem,
and
we
are
a
well
heart,
a
good-hearted
community
that
can
do
this.
So
I
may
sound
pie
in
the
sky,
but
damn
it
we
can
do
this
foreign.
AP
Hello,
my
name's
Ron
Rogers,
we
own
Roger's,
Service
Group,
on
Clinton
Street
I've
been
working
there
51
years
myself
and
Clinton
Street
is
in
probably
the
worst
Condition
it's
ever
been
in
those
50
years,
and
the
reason
is
is
because
the
city
does
not
have
the
ability
to
keep
up
on
buildings
that
are
run
down,
buildings
that
are
falling
apart
and
only
with
commercialism.
Well,
we
get
a
better
tax
base
so
that
we
can
do
more
for
social
services,
homelessness,
helping
people
food.
AP
Our
company
is
not
against
that
at
all,
but
it
has
become
very
dangerous
on
Clinton
Street
in
the
winter
months,
when
it's
dark
at
four
or
five
o'clock,
we
have
to
walk
all
our
female
employees
to
the
car.
They've
been
accosted.
Our
drivers
have
been
held
up
at
night
when
they
come
in
late
at
night
to
park
their
trucks.
It's
probably
the
worst
condition
that
it's
been
as
I
said
in
those
number
of
years,
also
the
four
or
five
vacant
acres
of
land
right
across
from
this
homeless,
shelter
where
it's
planned,
is
under
development.
AP
It's
been
a
year
and
a
half
that
people
have
been
working
on.
This
to
put
over
a
hundred
housing
units
in
there
and
15
or
20
commercial
places,
I
think
that
would
be
a
big
plus
for
the
community.
Yes,
we
own
the
land,
but
it's
not
a
monetarily
decision
on
our
part
at
all.
We
could
have
sold
that
land
many
times,
but
the
developers
were
not
putting
what
we
thought
was
right
for
the
community.
AP
Now
we
know
it's
right
and
I
think
if
these
developers
find
out
that
there's
a
homeless,
shelter
directly
across
the
street
from
them
I
think
they'll,
walk
or
they'll
put
up
a
stink
and
that
hurts
everybody.
It
hurts
a
tax
base,
hurts
all
the
residents
in
First
Ward
and
it
hurts
all
the
residents
in
the
city
of
Binghamton
again
we
are
not
against
homelessness
or
any
Social
Services
whatsoever,
but
it's
a
bottom
line,
basic
decision.
You
want
a
larger
tax
base.
You
want
to
clean
up
Clinton
Street.
AP
AP
E
M
AQ
My
name
is
Liana
tosani
and
I
live
on
the
West
Side,
so
as
a
resident
and
the
vice
president
of
the
board
of
hcbc
I'm
here
in
support
and
to
just
go
a
little
bit
back.
I
joined
acbc,
not
knowing
very
much
about
the
organization
but
as
I've
learned
and
been
in
my
role,
I
support,
Camilla
and
no.
She
has
a
great
vision
and
knows
she
wouldn't
be
getting
into
anything
without
doing
her
homework.
AQ
Some
people
have
said
that
we
haven't,
provided
the
literature,
also
I
totally
scrapped
my
entire
speech,
so
I'm
just
going
so,
but
I
believe
in
the
new
packet
that
we
have
supplied
the
literature.
Sorry
I'm,
not
sure
we
Supply
the
literature
and
a
more
developed
plan
as
she
has
the
experience
over
the
summer
so
to
the
businesses.
AQ
I
understand
their
concern,
but
acbc
bought
this
building
about
a
year
and
a
half
ago,
I'm
really
off
with
my
time
frame
and
the
problem
was
already
there
so
and
the
Redevelopment
I
know
the
mayor
said
that
he
wants
to
do
something
over
there,
but
we
bought
the
building.
AQ
We
paid
taxes
this
year
and,
yes,
we
are
a
non-profit,
but
we
are
probably
going
to
move
towards
being
tax-free,
but
that
20
million
it's
an
investment
into
the
building
and
then
when
acbc
is
gone,
maybe
in
200
here
that
building
will
have
all
of
the
upgrades
to
it.
AQ
We
know
people
have
concerns
that
are
neighbors,
but
we
also
know
those
neighbors
caused
some
issues
as
well
in
the
neighborhood.
But
no
one
is
looking
at
that
to
fix
that
problem
also
with
the
crime.
That
is
a
city-wide
issue.
You
cannot
just
say
that
it
is
a
Clinton
Street
issue.
It
is
city-wide,
so
that's
all
I'm
gonna
say
I.
AR
That
report
on
just
the
exact
opposite,
for
example,
which
I
have
printed
out
a
copy
and
I
will
submit
for
the
public
record
in
June
2023,
a
homeless
man
was
arrested
for
reporting.
Forgive
me
for
a
stabbing
incident
that
had
three
other
charges
with
it.
This
happened
here
in
New
York
and
by
extension.
Now
the
warming
center
is
closed.
AR
More
importantly,
I've
also
provided
a
copy
for
you
of
a
longitudinal,
almost
10-year
study,
conducted
by
not
just
researchers
and
social
sciences,
but
criminologists
at
the
University
of
Pennsylvania
that
was
submitted
for
publication
in
the
Journal
of
experimental
criminology.
It's
not
even
10
years
old,
researching
the
impact
of
shelters
of
all
types,
whether
they
be
emergency
or
warming
or
not.
On
public
crime
quote,
we
found
strong
evidence
that
the
presence
of
a
shelter
is
associated
with
an
increase
in
property
and
Mischief
crime.
AR
These
are
criminologists.
These
are
people
who
live
in
this
data
all
day
long,
it's
a
very
robust
model.
You
can
look
at
it
yourself
from
a
public
standpoint.
The
evidence
and
the
data
are
clear,
a
warming
Center
by
from
what
I'm
being
told
by
residents,
many
not
all,
but
most
small
businesses
and
other
stakeholders
in
the
community
is
that
they
do
not
see
this
in
compatity
incompatibility
with
a
main
thoroughfare
that
has
both
industrialized
and
small
businesses,
as
well
as
homeowners
and
renters,
and
tenants.
H
AR
So,
thank
you.
The
capacity
here
is
incredibly
important.
AR
A
N
So
that's
a
lot
to
respond
to
and
a
lot
for
everyone
to
digest,
but
just
want
to
refocus
on
the
purpose
of
tonight
and
the
application
that's
pending
before
you
just
to
clarify
a
few
things.
Sir.
N
You
if
I
talk,
this
close
I
can't
see
me,
so
this
is
an
application
for
site
plan
review
and
an
application
for
a
special
permit.
Special
permit
use
is
a
social
services.
Use
is
in
the
zoning
district
is
a
legislative
determination.
That's
already
been
made
that
this
use
can
be
appropriate
in
the
zoning
District.
N
That
same
determination
was
made
by
the
legislative
body
with
respect
to
essentially
every
property
that
fronts
on
Clinton,
Street
and
I
showed
you,
my
my
red.
So
all
those
properties,
this
use
is
permitted
or
permitted
by
special
permit.
N
This
is
not
a
shelter.
This
is
a
warming
station
that
is
open
for
a
discrete
period
of
time
during
the
year
and
is
open
for
a
discreet
period
of
hours.
During
that
period
of
time,
site
plan
and
special
permit
criteria.
You
all
are
very
familiar
with
I
know
that
I
would
also
like
to
remind
you
that
this
is
not
a
popularity
contest,
one
way
or
the
other.
N
This
is
a
objective
analysis
of
the
actual
project
before
you,
which
is
just
to
refresh
2
000
square
feet
of
a
sixty
thou,
three
thousand
square
foot
building
a
very
small
portion
of
the
building,
there's
been
some
allegation
or
some
suggestion
that
some
of
your
questions,
weren't
answered,
we
did
provide
a
packet
of
information
to
you,
which
I
know
has
been
distributed
to
you
when
we
addressed
all
of
the
issues
identified,
a
plan
for
security
criteria
for
admission,
dismissal
protocol,
empirical
evidence
and
data
with
respect
to
the
issue
of
crime.
N
I
think
that
when
you
are
looking
at
this
application,
just
like
any
other
application
that
you
look
at,
you
have
to
look
at
not
maybe
what
you
think
is
a
good
idea
or
what
you
think
is
a
bad
idea.
But
yet
you
have
to
recognize
that
the
elected
officials
have
already
decided
that
this
could
be
an
okay
idea
in
this
area.
There
aren't
many
other
areas
in
the
city
of
Binghamton
in
which
that
decision
was
made
and
look
at
the
facility
Itself
by
virtue
of
site
plan.
Acbc
owns
15
Charles
Street.
N
They
also
own
an
adjacent
parcel
of
almost
an
acre
with
nothing
on
it
which
will
be
utilized
for
parking.
So
the
suggestion
that
there's
not
adequate
parking
is
is
simply
unfounded
in
terms
of
site
plan.
It's
only
an
improvement
and
and
again
in
terms
of
the
special
permit
criteria.
We
would
just
ask
that
you
look
at
the
criteria
and
base
your
determination
on
objective
information
that
you've
been
provided
as
opposed
to
generalized
Community,
opposition
and
I.
Think
Carmella
has
a
few
points
that
she
wanted
to
make
as
well.
P
Yes,
we
do
own
the
parking
lot.
That's
in
the
adjacent
parcel.
We
do
intend
to
put
more
cameras
on
it
because,
like
many
of
the
residents
of
the
Clinton
Street
area
have
said,
there
is
crime
going
on,
but
I
don't
think
having
the
warming.
Center
is
going
to
contribute
to
that.
It's
always
already
very
rampant.
If
anything,
if
we
don't
have
a
warming
Center,
we
may
see
as
things
get
colder
or
even
as
they
don't
get
colder
like
that
crime
is
and
homelessness
is
going
to
continue
and
and
not
get
better.
P
So
to
turn
away
a
resource.
Just
doesn't
really
make
sense.
I
would
be
happy
to
meet
with
any
local
business
owners.
I
have
met
with
some
that
I
I
won't
identify
who
but
I
guess.
You
know
to
hear
that
people
are
galvanizing
against
us
is
a
little
bit
uncomfortable,
but
in
any
case,
I
want
relationships
with
business
owners.
We
need
to
be
able
to
get
Hardware
products
and
have
a
place
to
go
to
lunch.
P
That's
within
walking
distance
and
having
100,
100,
plus
employees
I
think
would
really
be
of
great
benefit
to
area
businesses,
and
we
want
to
have
positive
relationships
regarding
security.
I
didn't
provide
the
entire
policy
and
procedures,
but
I
can
do
that,
but
I.
What
is
typical
industry
standard
is
providing
at
least
a
background
check.
Does
someone
have
any
warrants?
That's
kind
of
the
bare
minimum.
We
have
surpassed
the
bare
minimum
with
doing
a
full
and
complete
criminal
background
check
on
individuals
that
come
in.
P
So
you
know
that
was
part
of
the
security
that
we
explained
and
that
the
staff
is
well
trained
in
crisis
de-escalization
in
handling
individuals
that
are
have
experienced
trauma
so
that
we're
not
re-traumatizing
or
triggering
individuals
regarding
the
correct
area-
and
it
does
seem
like
the
community's
on
the
same
page
that
we
need
this
service
I
just
wanted
to
mention
you
know,
is
the
YWCA
on
Holly
Street
in
an
okay
place.
Is
the
YMCA
in
an
okay
place?
P
Is
the
Salvation
Army
is
the
VOA
is
Saint
Cyril's
Outreach,
where
10
000
people
are
getting
food
every
month
in
an
okay
place?
You
know
I'm,
not
sure,
if
there's
any
perfect
place
that
individuals
that
need
to
walk
to
a
service
you
know
can
get
to
that
that
a
community
would
necessarily
agree
is
either
United
Presbyterian
Church
in
the
best
place
you
know
it's
working,
it's
safe
and
we
haven't
had
any
significant
issues.
P
P
We
absolutely
would
not
want
to
do
that
and
in
the
report
that
you
were
sent
sent
since
April
27th,
we
actually
had
nine
children
that
were
guests
at
the
warming
Center
the
comfort
center
at
United
Presbyterian.
We
absolutely
don't,
don't
intend
to
really
take
kids,
but
if
they
show
up
we're
not
going
to
turn
them
away,
and
we
wouldn't
do
that
because
you
know
our
preference
is
to
work
with
adults.
P
You
know
it
is
a
standard
industry
practice
that
people
should
be
trained
in
opioid
overdose
reversal.
That
includes
all
the
fast
food
restaurants
in
the
community,
most
restaurants,
most
businesses,
schools.
You
know
that's
also
just
kind
of
industry
standard,
not
that
we
would
be
like
supporting
anyone
using
you
know
our
res
guests
that
come
into
the
comfort
center,
like
their
belongings,
are
locked
up
for
the
night.
So
no
one
has
access
to
stuff.
A
C
B
Sarah
Carmella
a
variety
of
questions
based
on
some
of
the
feedback
we
received.
I
was
taking
notes
on
you
already
talked
a
little
bit
about
this
I
mean
you
can
clarify
this,
focusing
on
Families
versus
single
folks
individuals
at
the
warming
Center
previously
I
seem
to
remember.
There
was
discussed
a
preference
for
bringing
in
individuals
to
the
warming
Center
so
that
the
the
DSs
Hotel
options
could
be
prioritized
for
families.
Is
that
still
the
case,
or
is
that
changed.
B
B
Going
to
one
of
the
public
safety
concerns
your
screening
for
entry
and
screening
out
for
non-admission
child
sex
offenders
and
arsonists
correct.
P
B
P
B
B
We
have
had
a
number
of
local
business
owners
here,
Express
their
concerns,
their
concerns
are
Justified,
they're
being
heard,
I
won't
lie
I'm
concerned
that
some
of
your
Advocates,
some
of
which
self-identified
as
your
own
staff
members,
seemed
at
times
indifference
and
sometimes
even
hostile
to
the
local
businesses
that
are
going
to
be.
In
theory,
your
neighbors
I'm
just
concerned
about
how
your
organization
or
the
staff
members
thereof,
are
going
to
be
as
Neighbors
and
how
that's
going
to
affect
the
general
character
of
the
neighborhood.
P
P
Q
I
I
appreciate
his
comments
and
I
have
a
variety
of
questions
for
you
both
so
bear
with
me.
Q
One
of
my
questions
is
that
I
keep
keep
coming
back
to
is
that
we've
got
you
know
it's
only
four
beds
and
2
000
square
feet,
six
thousand
sixty
thousand
sorry,
but
you
don't
buy
sixty
thousand
if
you're
not
going
to
utilize
it
so
I
know
there
must
be
plans
and
I
think
that
this
is
of
Greater
concern
because
you
know,
even
if
the
plans
aren't
developed
yet
I
think
it
is,
it
is
sometimes
the
what
ifs
what's
happening.
Q
Next,
what's
this
going
to
evolve
into
and
what
are
we
looking
at
because
it
just
starts
small
and
then
this
isn't
any
longer
a
warming
station.
This
is
some
place,
that's
housing
with
150
employees.
We
know
that.
There's
growth,
that's
in
the
future
and
that
I
think
is
just
something:
that's
there
like
the
boogeyman.
They
don't
know,
and
it's
a
fear
and
I'd
like
you
to
address
that.
If
you
would,
if.
N
It's
not
an
unfair
question
at
all.
One
of
the
biggest
things
that
will
happen
is
the
consolidation
of
author
and
the
centralization
of
the
organization.
So
the
organization
is
right
now
in
in
in
a
number
of
different
locations
in
terms
of
the
staff.
So
that's
that's.
A
big
component
of
of
the
of
the
project
is
office.
Use
Office
use
under
the
zoning
regulations
is
permitted
by
right.
N
The
things
that
we
would
have
to
come
back
to
you
for,
like
anybody,
would
are
overnight
accommodations
growth
of
the
warming
station,
expanding
the
hours
of
operation,
making
it
a
a
12-month
Comfort
station,
like
the
one
downtown
is
those
are
the
sorts
of
things
that
would
have
to
come
back
the
like
something
else
that
anticipated,
or
at
least
envisioned,
is
medical
services.
Medical
services
are
permitted
by
right
in
this
District.
It
would
not
require
any
additional
approvals
necessarily
from
you.
N
So
we
haven't
talked
about
those
kinds
of
things
because
those
things
are
allowed
in
in
the
district
anyways
or
are
allowed
as
a
matter
of
site
plan,
not
special
permit,
and
you
can
speak
to
any
other
thing.
As
I
said,
the
employee,
Day
Care,
is
also
another
thing
that
I
know
you're
you're.
Looking
at
we.
P
Q
I
know
you've
touched
briefly,
but
if
there's
more
of
a
developed
plan
that
that
might
be
something
to
assuage
some
of
the
problems
here,
but
I'll
go
on
and
I
appreciate.
That
would
there
be
any
way
to
have
you
consider
expanding
the
parameters
of
the
crimes
that
were
allowed
to
include
a
any
more
violent
crimes
to
be?
You
know,
put
under
the
people
who
are
not
allowed
into
this
specific
warming.
Center
I
know
that's
a
hard
question
to
ask
I'm
sorry.
P
I
would
certainly
be
open
to
considering
that,
if
that's
something
that's
helpful
for
the
community,
I
guess
I
would
just
also
consider
like
there
are
individuals
with
all
sorts
of
felonies
working
in
all
businesses
like
pumping
gas
and
serving
food
and
washing
dishes.
And
you
know
we
went
with
industry
standard,
which
is
yes,
sex,
offense
and
arsonist.
But
we
could
certainly
consider
that
okay.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Okay,
I
appreciate
that
disbursement
I
think
that
the
morning
disbursement
is
a
cause
for
question
and
I
and
I
say
this
because
I
know
you
have
such
a
special
service
there
that
if
I
were
a
homeless
person,
I
knew
there
were
40
beds
and
it
was
going
to
be
cold
again
tonight.
Better
believe
my
butt
wouldn't
be
going
too
far
from
that
place,
because
I'd
know
I
want
to
get
one
of
those
beds
and
I
think
you
know.
Q
How
do
you
I
know
that
you're
going
to
do
your
best
to
get
them
someplace
else
to
give
them
the
services
you
need,
but
seven
o'clock
comes
and
game
on
and,
like
I
said
you
know,
if
you're
40
people,
you
know,
there's
40
beds,
I'm
not
going
far.
It's
like
a
game
of
that
you
take
away
the
chair
and,
and
so
I
think
that
that's
a
concern
that
you
know
some
of
the
business
owners.
That's
where
they're
coming
from
is
there
they're
going
to
still
be
right
here
for
the
day
and
I?
Q
P
So
we
can
offer
Transportation,
you
know
what
some
of
the
other
warming
centers
in
New
York
state
have
pickup
spots.
You
know
so
they'll
go
to
certain
locations
in
the
community
and
bring
people
when
it's
time
to
begin
services
in
the
evening.
So
we
can
also
drop
people
off
if
there's
locations
that
that
would
be
necessary
for
them
to
go
based
on
the
individuals
we're
seeing
right
now
like
they
have
walkers,
they
have
canes
like
they.
P
They
want
to
sit
somewhere
close
by
because
they
don't
know
like
how
am
I
going
to
get
back
here
tonight,
like
that's
kind
of
the
sad
truth
of
what
we're
seeing.
So
we
will
try
to
assist
people
with
getting
somewhere,
that's
safe
for
them
to
be
that
day
and
if
it's
super
super
cold,
maybe
we'll
just
let
them
stay.
Okay,.
Q
Two
more
questions.
Sorry,
let's
see
what
these
are.
F
Nick,
if
I
could
just
address
something
the
applicant
said
about
what
uses
would
have
to
come
back
to
the
Planning
Commission.
So
the
the
use
is
outlining
the
vision
that
that
they
gave
the
Commission
in
February.
The
majority
of
those
would
have
to
come
back
to
the
Planning
Commission,
so
transitional
housing,
Children's,
Clinic,
outpatient,
rehab.
Those
would
all
have
to
come
back
to
the
Planning
Commission.
F
The
case
could
be
made
that
space
that's
going
directly
from
Office
Space,
if
that
was
what
it
was
before,
they
purchased
the
building
to
acbc
strictly
office
space
that
that
would
not
have
to
go
to
the
Planning
Commission,
although
that
that's
a
little
bit
gray,
because
Social
Services
as
a
land
use
requires
a
special
use
permit
in
the
offices
of
social
service
agencies
do
fall
under
that
land
use.
So
it's
possible
that
any
expansion
or
any
additional
use
of
the
building
by
acbc
would
have
to
come
back
to
the
Planning
Commission.
Q
And
I
have
one
more
thing
that
and
it's
a
statement
and
it's
about
Marianne
Callahan.
If
you
do
end
up
in
that
neighborhood
I
implore
you
to
Rich
and
and
work
with
her
I've
worked
with
her
on
the
cdac
she's,
a
wealth
of
knowledge,
a
passionate
individual
I
know,
there's
a
bridge
to
be
built
and
a
way
to
try
to
work
through
some
things.
She
is
an
absolute
resource
that
I
would
really
hope
that
you
work
with.
K
Just
want
to
thank
my
fellow
Commissioners
for
the
comments
and
the
questions
that
they
just
posed.
It
saved
me
having
to
do
some
talking
because
at
some
of
the
same
points
myself
but
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
and
comments
just
on
the
proposal
as
it
is,
and
not
what
somebody
may
want
it
to
be,
so
keep
it
out
of
that
hypothetical
realm.
K
This
will
piggyback
a
little
bit
off
the
concern
you
had
about
the
mobility
of
people
within
the
neighborhood,
leaving
the
facility
I
personally
had
reason
to
be
given
pause
when
I
think
was
at
the
March
meeting
of
this
commission,
when
it
was
said
that
the
clients
could
leave
in
the
middle
of
the
night.
I
understand
this
is
not
an
adult
detention
center.
It's
not
meant
to
be
that,
and
certainly
not
wanting
to
put
anybody
in
the
position
of
operating
that
couldn't
imagine
how
difficult
it
would
be.
K
But
just
you
know,
I
think
that
you
know
we
can
agree.
There's
a
certain
Optics
behind
the
idea
of
people
leaving
you
don't
know
where
they're
going
and
well
you
don't
want
to
be
rooted
in
fear
too
much.
There
is
reason
to
be
concerned
about
that
and
I
know
you
can't
keep
people
in
and
we're
not
wanting
to
put
you
in
that
position,
but
that's
certainly
I
think
weighs
heavily
on
people's
minds
as
well.
K
As
you
know,
just
what
may
sound
like
to
some
and
not
my
own
editorializing,
but
we're
picking
and
choosing
what
crimes
are
acceptable
for
people
to
be
admitted
or
not
admitted
into
the
facility
so
Chris
had
asked
about.
If
somebody
had
committed
a
sexual
offense
against
a
child,
that's
a
disqualifying
Factor,
they
can't
be
there.
Is
it
the
same
if
it's
somebody
convicted
of
sexual
crime
against
an
adult?
Are
we
treating
that
the
same
way.
K
Okay,
so
I
thought
so,
but
I
won,
because
he
has
split
that
out
and
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
I
understood
that
and
was
hoping.
You
would
say,
I
think
it
was
in
the
comments
that
councilman
scaringy
made
when
he
was
up
at
the
the
microphone
about
a
warming
station
in
another
city,
where
there's
some
type
of
violent
crime
that
had
occurred
committed
by
one
of
the
people
using
the
facility
and
the
permit
was,
was
pulled
or
was
shut
down.
K
I,
don't
know
what
the
legal
mechanism
was,
but
the
warming
station
was
no
longer
allowed
to
function.
If
permission
was
granted
and
we
went
ahead
and
gave
the
site
use
plan,
do
we
have
permission
to
pull
it?
If
we
have
concerns
about
safety
and
the
administration
of
this
property.
K
AD
K
You
repeat
that
sure,
if
there
are
safety
incidents,
if
we
go
ahead
and
vote
for
this
site
plan
to
be
granted
and
it
opens-
and
there
are
sufficient
concerns,
either
violent
crimes
or
things
like
of
that
nature.
Do
we
either
as
a
commissioner
to
the
city,
have
the
authority
to
shut
this
down
by
whatever
mechanism
is
available
to
them?.
F
There
is
a
provision
in
the
zoning
code
that
a
special
use
permit
can
be
revoked
by
the
supervisor
of
building
and
construction.
I've
never
seen
that
used,
but
the
lot
there
is
also
a
lockdown
provision.
So
if
a
certain
number
of
points
are
accrued
and
those
points
are
based
on
criminal
activity
right-
that
the
facility
could
be
locked
down.
K
To
the
point
raised
earlier,
I
think
maybe
it
was
Chris
about
the
people
coming
to
speak
at
the
microphone,
and
it
is
heartbreaking
here
on
all
sides.
Everything
has
been
shared
and
I
have
a
lot
of
respect
and
admiration
for
those
who
came
up
and
share
their
deeply
personal
stories.
I
couldn't
imagine
the
hell.
These
people
have
gone
through,
let
alone
to
come
and
share
that
with
total
strangers.
K
You
know
not
having
seen
me
or
members
of
the
commission
before
and
I
also
am
sensitive
to
the
residents
and
the
business
owners
that
have
spoke
or
sent
letters,
and
this
was
this
is
part
two
of
a
public
hearing
that
I
think
was
in
March
when
it
first
opened,
and
so
we
had
a
number
of
people
that
lived
nearby.
That
spoke
during
part
A
of
this
public
hearing,
and
tonight
we
had
quite
a
lot
of.
A
K
Was
I
learned
a
lot
learned
from
the
people
who
work
for
acbc,
but
you
know
trying
to
weigh
all
of
these
factors
together.
I
consider
that
an
extension
of
the
applicant
and
in
trying
to
you
know
reconcile
that
we
have
not
had
any
residents
or
very
few
residents.
Maybe
none
that's
trying
to
keep
careful
track.
K
Who
spoke
for
this
that
are
not
affiliated
with
acbc
so,
which
is
I,
think
a
very
important
point,
one
okay.
So,
as
I
said,
very
few
I
was
trying
to
not
be
in
the
absolute
unless
I
was
correct
about
that.
So
that's
something
that
I
think
as
Commissioners
are
trying
to
keep
in
mind.
As
far
as
engaging
the
community
sentiment,
making
the
right
decision,
it
stopped
not
going
to
make
everybody
happy.
K
You
know,
and
one
of
the
questions
I
had
and
I
think
it
was
answered
by
by
Tito
is,
would
future
uses
do
to
increase
use
of
this
facility
come
back
before
the
commission?
So
it's
not
like.
We
give
this
to
you
and
it's
like
we're
off
and
running.
The
plan
was
to
have
a
400
bed
shelter
and
you
know
we
tricked
you
and
we've
got
the
you
know
it's.
K
N
Right
I
think
just
to
follow
up
on
on
your
comment
in
terms
of
leaving
in
the
night.
I
think
that
that
is
a
an
issue
that
we
try
to
address,
but
I
think
if
you
look
at
the
history
of
the
station
or
the
the
Comfort
station,
that's
open
now,
there's
been
very
few
people
that
are
leaving
in
the
night
and
it's
warm.
You
know
this
is
people
who
are
coming
into
a
freezing
situation
or
from
a
freezing
situation
the
likelihood
that
they
are
going
to
bolt
in
the
middle
of
the
night.
K
Would
you
say
it's
a
higher
potential
of
occurrence
that
somebody
would
be
out
in
the
street
because
they
were
tossed
for
not
following
the
rules
or
causing
an
incident
trying
to
hurt
somebody
else
trying
to
steal.
Do
something
that
you
decide?
You
don't
want
to
have
them
there,
so
you're
not
going
to
keep
them
just
send
them
out
and
where
they
go
is
where
they
go.
That's
probably
more
likely
than
somebody
saying
it's
five
degrees
out
like
I'm
gonna
go
on
my
own,
like
I,
don't
know
who
would
do
that.
N
And-
and
it's
and
what
it
sounds
like
to
me
from
listening
to
the
business
owners,
is
that
those
people
are
already
out
there
they're
already
there
they're,
already
sleeping
in
the
doorways
they're,
already
sleeping
in
the
trash
they're
sleeping
in
the
bushes,
so
it
isn't
as
if
that
doesn't
exist.
Anyways.
B
Chris,
this
question
may
be
more
for
Carmela
than
for
Sarah
multiple
times
now.
People
reference
both
you
two
at
the
mic
and
also
multiple
speakers
in
the
public
hearing
about
this
I'm
hoping
I
got
this
down
at
the
first
up:
comfort
center.
That's
at
the
Presbyterian
Church
on
Shenango
Street.
How
is
that
similar
to
or
different
from
the
proposed
warming
Center
foreign.
P
So,
what's
different
is
that
we're
not
following
a
32
Degree
admission?
You
know,
like
it's,
been
open
five
nights
a
week
since
April
27th,
so
we're
following
the
same
policies
that
we
proposed
for
the
code
blue
Center.
P
We
we
did
make
some
changes
from.
You
know
when
we
conceptualized
this
and
presented
in
March,
where
we
don't
actually
allow
individuals
to
go
out
for
any
any
breaks.
You
know
once
they're
in
they're
kind
of
in
for
the
night
and
that's
the
rules,
so
you
know
we
think
that
it's
a
good
pilot,
you
know
to
help
us
gain
experience
for
Code
Blue.
P
P
We're
open
at
seven
there's
of
a
light
dinner
people
check
in
if
anyone's
new
that
hasn't
been
with
us
before
we
can
do
kind
of
a
brief
screening
with
them.
We
have
a
little
bit
of
time
before
it
kind
of
lights,
out
to
start
working
on
what
kind
of
resources
does
that
person
need?
We
will
do
their
laundry
people
have
had
a
lot
of
needs
and
need
referrals.
So
we
we
get
those
things
started
and
then
at
7
A.M
is
when
people
leave.
C
I
I
One
is
that
about
10
to
15
years
ago,
we
had
the
Volunteers
of
America,
bring
in
and
I
can't
recall
what
was
halfway
house
or
a
Recovery
Center
on
Clinton
Street,
and
it
was
kind
of
the
same
situation
as
tonight,
or
there
was
a
lot
of
these
for
them
to
speak
passionately
about
how
the
Volunteers
of
America
helped
people,
and
then
there
was
the
group
of
business
owners
who
came
in
and
had
concerns.
I
This
was
closer
to
the
old
location
of
Philadelphia
sales
somewhere
in
that
area
on
Clinton
Street,
and
they
came
in
and
spoke
about
concerns
over
how
it
would
affects
their
livelihood
and
their
income,
and
the
planning
board
voted
to
not
allow
the
project
to
proceed,
and
then
what
happened
after
that,
because
it
was
a
permitted
use
the
Volunteers
of
America
sued,
the
members
of
this
board
individually.
I
You
know
had
enough
in
terms
of
excuse
me
about
safety
to
cause
that
problem.
Then,
following
that,
maybe
about
10
years
ago,
I
was
asked
to
work
on
a
special
project
for
the
city
to
look
at
buying
that
site
where
the
gas
turbine
was
located.
I
The
co-generation
plant
next
door
on
Charles
Street
and
the
city
put
an
extensive
effort
through
Economic
Development,
to
try
and
bring
businesses
into
that
area,
and
we
got
pretty
far
with
developing
independent
site
with
the
gas
turbine
there,
but
in
the
end
it
wasn't
able
to
get
through
all
the
regulatory
hurdles
for
electric
transmission
and
other
issues.
After
about
three
or
four
years
of
work,
it
didn't
move.
So
the
point
I
wanted
to
make
is
that
site
has
had
a
lot
of
exercise
about
trying
to
bring
businesses
in
there.
I
So
then
the
so
that
gets
us
to
this.
The
history
now
we're
talking
about
again
bringing
a
business
and
and
it's
a
humanitarian
business,
but
it's
a
business
and
there's
opposition
from
people
who
live
in
the
neighborhood.
So
really
it's
the
the
issue
becomes
then
is
in
my
particular
case,
I.
C
I
Through
another
individual
with
some
of
the
businesses,
so
that's
why
I
recuse
myself
last
time.
So
if
you
want
to
make
this
point,
this
up,
I
didn't
do
that.
I
would
strongly
consider
the
issue
of
the
permitted
use
and
the
whole
thing
about
safety
is
people.
The
safety
issue
depends
on
how
well
law
enforcement
works,
and-
and
it's
not
perfect,
so
there
is
a
risk
involved.
I
So
it's
a
very,
very
complex
issue,
but
because
I
know
and
have
through
another
person
have
a
business
relationship,
I
I,
can't
I,
don't
think
I
can
vote
like
I
did
last
time.
I
have
to
refuse
myself
when
we
get
to
that
point,
because
there's
one
line
that
says
permitted
use
and
that
would
lead
me
in
One
Direction,
but
that
might
in
the
other
direction,
saying
well
I
support
that
not
being
used
and
I'm
just
doing
that
for
mine.
I
What
I
know
of
people.
So
that's
where
I
got
to
sit
this
one
out
again.
I
A
That's
an
excellent
point,
all
right
so
Joe,
are
you
saying
you
you
need
to
recuse
yourself
from.
C
I
You
should
do
that
just
because
that
should
be
an
independent
decision
and
it's
a
Top
Gun,
but
we
already
been
through
this
and
because
it
was
a
permitted
use
and
that's
the
age
which
happened,
and
the
city
has
put
a
lot
of
effort
into
trying
to
develop
this
as
an
industrial
area.
Then
nothing
else
and
a
lot
of
effort
to
bring
other
businesses
in
to
make
it
to
generate
electricity.
Nothing
that's
been
done.
A
Oh
Joey,
are
you
still?
You
got
a
green
light
down.
There
still
yeah
all
right
there.
They
can't
pick
you
up
on
the
microphone
but
I
guess
the
big
question
is
so
you,
your
opinion
about
the
project
is
going
to
be
swayed
by
a
personal
relationship
or
a
monetary
game
that
you
might
get
a
couple
of
two
okay.
So
then
you
should
refuse
yourself.
I
A
You
agree
with
that
all
right,
so
probably
I
guess
at
this
point
you
could
probably
sit
in
the
audience
with
everybody
else.
If
you're,
okay
with
that.
F
Nick
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
social
services
as
a
land
use
is
not
permitted
by
right.
It
requires
a
special
use
permit,
so
special
use
permits
do
not
have
to
be
approved
if
this
was
a
use
that
was
permitted
by
right.
You
could
address
issues
with
the
site
plan,
but
that
use
has
to
be
approved.
Anything
that
requires
special
use
permit
does
not
have
to
be
approved,
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
distinction.
F
Okay
need
a
very
good
reason
to
deny
it
to
be
clear,
but
it's
not
sort
of
an
automatic
permitted
use.
A
All
right,
all
right
so
Tito
just
said
a
very
important
thing.
So
if,
in
your
decisions
tonight,
it
will
be
very
important
because
of
past
precedence
where
the
city
has
been
taken
into
court
afterwards,
that
you
have
a
pretty
decent
reasoning
for
which
way
you're
you're
voting
in
the
past,
we've
asked
members
if
they're,
okay
with
stating
that
reason
as
they
make
their
determination.
Do
you
want
that
tonight
as
well.
A
A
reason
for
how
they're
voting
yes
or
no
Brian
has
asked
this
in
the
past
to
clearly
State
what
rules
we
have
or
what,
basically,
by
the
checklist,
what
check
marks.
We
might
be
saying
yes
or
no,
why
we're
voting
one
way
or
another
I
think
it's.
C
AS
This
is
what
makes
the
situation
so
difficult.
I
mean
you've
got
a
situation
where
the
thing
is
allowed
and
permanent.
You
know
what
how
much
leeway
do
we
do?
We
really
have
when
it
comes
down
to
making
decisions
like
this.
You
know
I,
believe
we've
sat
here
with
many
dwellings
that
are
being
renovated
and
and
you're
listening
to
all
kinds
of
reasons.
AS
To
us
and
exactly
and
a
lot
of
times,
there's
not
a
lot
of
leeway
in
that
code.
That
is
true
that
was
I.
Had
a
question
about
security.
It
seems
like
a
lot
of
issues
that
were
out
there
were
centered
around
security.
What
do
you
have
if
something
goes
bad
during
the
night?
Do
you
have
do
you
have
people
there
that
are
secured
that
are
ready
to
handle
a
situation
like
that?
Our.
AS
Needed
there's
people
on
both
sides
that
would
benefit
from
additional
information.
I
mean
I
would
feel
good
if,
if
you
folks
and
the
business
owners
were
able
to
get
together
and
have
a
better
understanding
of
what
you're
doing
and
what
you're
going
to
do
to
solve
some
of
their
issues
and
vice
versa.
Now
again,
this
goes
outside
of
our
you
know.
L
N
Do
we
yeah,
but
unfortunately,
we
took
the
time
to
try
to
address
all
the
concerns
that
were
raised
and
at
the
end
of
the
day,
as
you
and
I
both
know
from
sitting
here
on
many
different
projects,
you
can
only
do
your
best.
You
can
only
do
what
you
can
do
and
I
think
fundamentally
requiring
that
there
be
some
consensus
or
some
agreement.
B
Chris
a
question
for
Tito
I
know
X
number
of
days
in
advance.
You
post
on
the
website
the
agenda
for
the
Planning
Commission
meeting
and
you
mailed
out
some
sort
of
notice
to
Property
Owners
within
200
feet.
If
I
remember
that
detail
correctly,
the
other
materials
that
are
submitted
when
are
those
made
public
so,
for
example,
Sarah
and
Carmel
put
together
that
big
list
of
leadership
supports
their
literature
reviews.
When
is
that
distributed
So
in
theory,
local
business
owners
and
local
residents
can
read
that
and
see
what's
going
on?
F
B
B
F
C
B
A
K
Don't
think
for
me
would
help
I
feel,
like
I
could
vote
on
this
as
presented
and
given
what
Tito
has
had
to
say
and
what
Joe
shared
and
and
really
what
everybody's
had
to
say
is
that
you
know
how
how
I
feel
about
it.
Personally
is
not
necessarily
the
point,
but
you
know,
acting
within
this
role
as
a
commissioner
and
doing
what's
legal
I'd,
I
I
would
I
would
vote
for
it
as
a
permitted
use,
because
I
don't
have
a
strong
enough
basis
to
say
no,
even
though
I
don't
feel
like
totally
satisfied
with
that.
K
A
This
is
a
very
small
portion
of
the
building,
we're
talking
about
a
certain
number
of
days
per
year,
not
every
day.
Use
I,
don't
see
this
as
having
a
huge
impact
on
the
neighborhood
based
on
what
this
project
is.
I.
Do
wish
that
when
you
guys
were
talking
about
the
project,
it
hadn't
been
confused
with
hundreds
of
employees,
because
that's
not
what
we're
reviewing
tonight.
We
are
reviewing
a
40
bed
warming
station
on
certain
nights
of
the
year
and
certainly
not
anything
having
to
do
with
the
future
plans
of
the
building.
A
I
will
say
that
when
it
comes
time
for
that,
I
hope
you're
very
prepared
because
I
don't
see
this
going
away
or
changing,
but
for
this
very
small
portion
of
the
building,
what
you're,
proposing
I
do
not
see
that
being
a
problem
and
so
I.
Second
Steve's
motion
to
approve.
B
AS
Concerns
but.
AS
A
A
So
we're
going
to
take
a
10
minute
break
and
then
we
will
be
back
with
a
motion
on
the
table
that
gives
everybody
a
second
to
regroup
and
think
about
it
all
right,
10
minutes,
8
55
we'll
be
back.
Thank
you.
F
C
H
A
F
Nick,
if
I,
if
I,
could
just
say
that,
regardless
of
how
a
member
votes,
they
should
have
a
good
reason
for
doing
so,
just
for
the
purposes
of
having
a
good
record,
especially
when
you
have
a
contentious
case
where
you
a
decision,
could
be
challenged
by
either
side
of
the
issue.
So
a
yes
Vote
or
a
no
vote.
F
You
know
the
members
should
make
that
with
good
reason.
If
you
have
members
that
are
not
sure
why
they
want
to
vote
Yes,
there's
always
the
option
to
to
table
the
case.
F
K
Can
I
withdraw
the
motion
because
I
I
think
how
this
played
out?
We
weren't
going
to
get
a
quorum,
we're
gonna
weren't
going
to
get
the
four.
It
was
going
to
be
a
denial
and
I
feel
like
that's.
Not
what
people
really
want
to
do
all
right,
so
I
withdraw
the
motion
to
approve
the
site
plan,
foreign.
K
A
First,
let's
make
sure
we're
okay
to
withdraw
the
motion.
F
I
think
that's
okay!
You
could
either
make
a
motion
to
table
or
a
motion
to
deny
or
you
could
in
theory,
you
could
try
the
motion
to
approve
again
all.
W
A
A
N
My
recommendation
would
be
that
the
public
hearing
be
closed
because
we
are
just
going
to
end
up
in
the
same
place
with
the
same
information
again.
That
would
include
the
submission
of
documents,
because
you're
just
going
to
end
up
then
having
to
open
the
public
hearing
again
to
address
any
new
information.
N
What
what
would
be
helpful
moving
forward
is
some
articulation
of
what
you
would
like
or
what
would
be
helpful
to
you.
I,
don't
know
if
that's
a
conference
with
your
attorney
to
understand
what
the
process
is
and
what
the
criteria
are.
If
you
need
a
checklist
with
the
criteria
on
it,
so
that
each
of
you
individually
can
reflect
on
that
I,
don't
know
what
that
is,
but
I
think
if
something
doesn't
happen.
You
may
well
end
up
in
this
exact
same
position
at
your
next
meeting.
All.
E
N
F
Right
what
we
can
do
we
can
provide
the
summary
of
the
minutes
ahead
of
time
or
earlier
than
usual
to
you
guys.
So
you
can
review
all
the
testimony
all
of
their
answers
and
it'll
give
you
some
more
time
to
review
the
letters
of
support
that
came
in
today
and
came
in
at
this
meeting.
So
I
do
think
that
if
we
get
you
the
minutes,
sound
is
the
one
doing
the
work.
So
I
don't
know.
K
I
guess
one
question
I'd
have
if
we
feel
as
a
commission
that
we
want
to
refine
the
proposal
to
get
something
that
we
would
all
feel
good
with
how
and
when
that
discussion
takes
place,
and
it
can't
be.
You
know
three
people
in
a
room.
It's
got
to
be
in
public,
so
you
know
how
to
navigate
that
process.
I'll
leave
it
up
to
somebody.
That's
more
knowledgeable
at
that
than
I
am.
F
K
Let's
just
say
for
hypotheticals
that
I
wanted
a
stronger
screening
process,
so,
in
addition
to
disqualifying
people
who
are
sex
offenders,
arsonists
I
want
a
b
and
c
as
other
disqualifying
factors
like
how
do
I
get
that
submitted
for
consideration
and
not
to
mention
there's
six.
Others
in
this
group
that
may
have
opinions
about
about
similar
things
like
that.
We.
N
We
often
hear
that
as
part
of
the
public
process,
and
it's
just
a
conversation
that
we
have
when
we're
sitting
here.
It's
often
a
tree
conversation
how
about
three
more
trees
here-
or
you
know
this
light
here
versus
this
light
here,
that's
just
a
conversation
we
have
and-
and
you
can
impose
it
as
a
condition
of
approval
and
as
long
as
it's
reasonably
related
to
the
project
and
the
issues
associated
with
the
project,
it's.
F
I
I
would
say
that
that's
type
of
discussion
should
happen
on
the
record,
so
I
would
say
if
you
want
to
do
that,
you
can
table
it.
You
individually
come
with
your
list
of
of
questions
or
or
required
conditions
of
approval
at
the
next
meeting
and
those
get
laid
out
on
the
record
at
that
meeting
and
then
they
can
agree
to
whatever
they
agree
to,
and
then
you
can
approve
it
with
conditions.
If
that's
where
you're,
leaning
or.
B
I
do
have
a
process
concern
with
what's
being
discussed
if
we
allow
the
applicant
would
effectively
be
a
third
bite
at
the
Apple
we're
coming
back
with
a
plan
C.
We
have
further
changes
in
addendums
to
appeal
to
the
five
and
a
half
of
us
who
are
voting
the
public,
then,
whether
for
or
against,
won't
be
able
to
address
and
voice
their
possible
concerns
so
about
what
might
be
happening
on
on
plan
C.
Well,.
N
F
They
were
to
submit
more
information,
then
we
would
have
to
reopen
the
public
hearing.
But
if
you
come
with
conditions
that
you
want
to
impose
on
them,
you
can
do
that
on
the
record
without
reopening
the
public
hearing.
The
same
way
that
if
you
were
to
vote
tonight,
you
could
decide
that
you're
going
to
approve
it
as
long
as
they
add
you
know
more
more
crimes
to
the
screening
list
or
as
long
as
they
make
the
entrance
face
to
the
West
instead
of
the
east
or
whatever
condition
you
wanted
to
impose.
F
K
A
F
A
All
right,
you
want
to
play
the
calendar
game
and
see
who's
available
for
a
special
meeting.
K
Yeah
sorry
we'll
go
through
another
monkey
wrench
into
this,
but
I
think
it's
a
good
question
Kelly
brought
up
is
that
if
we
wanted
to
take
a
site
visit
as
a
commission
of
15,
Charles
Street
and
then
also
the
church
on
Chenango
Street,
can
we
do
that
as
a
group
or
if
you
have
four,
then
it's
considered
a
quorum
and
not
something
you
if.
N
H
N
But
you're
welcome
to
do
that
and,
and
Tito
probably
does
know
my.
A
Criteria
for
what
they'd
like
to
see
addressed
at
the
next
meeting
to
the
next
meeting,
the
next
meeting,
so
Sarah's
not
available
for
the
scheduled
meeting.
Is
everyone
amenable
to
a
special
meeting
in
between
all
right?
Does
everybody
have
access
to
their
calendars
now
or
do
you
want
to
do
it
through
base
camp.
F
Yeah
yeah
and
then
I
just
asked
that
it'd
be
at
least
a
week
from
today,
just
so
that
we
can
get
the
word
out
to
the
public.
Even
though
it's
not
a
public
hearing
the
date
that
the
meeting's
happening
and.
F
A
Right
so,
starting
tomorrow,
we'll
try
and
figure
out
a
date
for
the
special
meeting,
it'll
be
publicly
noticed
publicly
announced
when
that
meeting
will
be.
F
That
pushes
the
meeting
date
farther
out
because
we
would
have
to
do
actually.
We
don't
need
to
do
legal
noticing
if
you
announce
it
at
this
meeting,
so
no
not
detrimental
I
mean
you
would
have
to
allow
people
to
speak
at
the
next
meeting
as
well.
A
A
A
All
right
I'll
make
a
motion
to
close
the
public
hearing.
Second
by
Steve,
all
in
favor
all
right,
that's
five
in
favor,
zero
opposed
all
right.
Thank
you.
Yes,
thank
you.
There's
a
lot
said
and
thank
you
to
everybody
who
spoke
tonight.
There's
a
lot
of
information
provided
on
both
sides,
very
valuable.
We
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
D
A
A
A
All
right
so
Chris
reminded
me
that
there
is
one
more
project
after
this
one
on
our
agenda.
For
tonight
you
thought
you
were
headed
home,
but
I
guess
again.
A
All
right,
sorry,
all
right,
so
the
last
public
hearing
and
final
deliberation
tonight
is
for
the
applicant
Marty
Dietrich.
The
project
address
is
31
Lewis
Street.
This
is
a
site
plan
review
to
construct
for
the
construction
of
a
stair
enclosure
on
the
roof
of
an
existing
mixed-use
building
in
the
C2
downtown
business
district
for
the
record,
Joe
has
returned
to
his
seat.
Welcome
back
Joe
foreign
all
right.
A
The
applicant
has
let
us
know
that
they
are
not
going
to
be
here
tonight,
but
the
plans
were
posted
and
the
description
of
the
project
was
pretty
straightforward.
A
Yeah,
maybe
we'll
give
it
two
minutes
before
we
start
talking
about
this.
One.
F
I
could
just
say
the
applicant
was
unable
to
travel.
That's.
Why
he's
not
here?
This
is
a
structure
that
was
previously
approved
by
Cod
years
ago.
It
was
never
built
since
then
the
proposed
structure
has
been
scaled
down.
It's
really
a
utility
structure
on
the
roof
of
the
Kilmer
building.
It's
an
enclosure
for
the
staircase
card
approved
it
this
morning.
It
requires
site
plan
review
because
it's
new
construction,
but
the
use
is
a
there's,
no
change
of
use.
It
has
no
use
it's
a
utility
structure
for
the
building.
W
F
A
All
right
all
right
motion
to
waive
the
public
hearing,
because
it's
a
type
2
action
by
Chris
seconded
by
Kelly,
all
in
favor,
all
right,
six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
and
I'll
make
a
motion
to
that.
The
requirements
for
site
plan
review
have
been
met
by
Steve,
all
in
favor,
all
right.
Six
in
favor,
zero
opposed
all
right,
that's
on
to
other
business!
That
concludes
public
hearings.
Other
business.
Anybody
have
any
other
business.
