Okay,
welcome
everyone
to
the
january
2022
planning
and
economic
development
committee
meeting
our
first
committee
meeting
of
the
year.
I
would
like
to
introduce
our
committee
members-
and
I
mentioned
a
moment
ago-
that
I
believe
first
ward,
alder
person
brock
is
here
is
is
cynthia
here.
Yes,
I'm
here!
Thank
you.
I
mentioned
a
month
ago
that
second
word
alder
person.
Phoebe
brown
may
be
unable
to
join
us
tonight.
A
She
has
a
personal
circumstance
that
prevents
her
from
being
here:
third
ward
alder
person,
gerhardt
fourth
ward
alder
person,
mailer
fifth,
word
alderperson
and
chair
myself,
laura
lewis
and
I'm
happy
to
open
tonight's.
B
A
Right
before
we
get
started,
however,
I
would
like
to
indicate
thank
you
to
former
alder
person
and
pedc
chair
for
many
years.
Seth
murtah,
who
served
the
city
as
older
person
very
well
and
certainly
served
as
chair
of
the
pedc
very
expertly
I'd,
also
because
this
is
our
first
meeting
of
the
year.
I'd
like
to
also
thank
joanne
cornish,
our
retired
retiring
planning
director
who
has
lived
in
the
city
of
ithaca,
her
whole
life
and
has
served
our
city
so
well
for
many
many
years.
A
So
thank
you
to
them
both
and
thank
you
this
evening
also
to
acting
director
lisa
nicholas,
who,
along
with
debbie
grunder,
is
supporting
our
meeting
tonight.
A
So
we'll
begin
with
public
comment,
and
I
want
to
remind
members
of
the
public
that
there
is
a
three
minute
limit
and
we
will
try
to
give
you
a
one
minute
heads
up
when
your
time
is
about
to
run
out.
But
please
do
note
yourselves
that
you
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak
so
lisa.
Do
you
want
to
tell
us
who
is
up?
First?
A
C
We
have
two
people
signed
up
to
speak
tonight
under
public
comment.
One
is
here
so
if
the
other
person
doesn't
show
up,
we
can
go
back
to
the
public
comment
after
the
oh
here.
She
is
all
right.
So
the
first
person
is
single.
B
B
So
hello,
my
name
is
sarah
krulis
and
I
live
in
the
city
of
ithaca
in
ward
5..
I
wanted
to
share
my
disappointment
that,
although
the
eviction
moratorium
for
the
state
of
new
york
was
allowed
to
expire,
this
past
saturday,
which
put
210
000
households
at
risk
of
eviction
in
the
state
that
the
common
council
of
ithaca
has
not
passed
any
good
cause
legislation
to
date
and
is
not
even
close
to
doing
so.
B
This
legislation
would
protect
so
many
renters
from
eviction
in
the
city
during
a
global
pandemic
which
is
still
raging
as
someone
who
is
currently
sick
with
covid
and
quarantining
at
my
current
residence,
I'm
thankful
that
I
don't
have
to
worry
about
losing
my
rental
housing
as
well.
However,
those
at
risk
of
eviction
and
suffering
from
covid
and
those
who
have
chronic
illnesses
and
are
more
susceptible
to
the
many
terrible
effects
of
this
disease
do
not
have
that
luxury.
B
So
please
do
the
right
thing
and
pass
good
cause
legislation
for
the
city,
as
many
other
municipalities
have
done
in
this
state
since
the
summer
and
other
states
passed
decades
ago.
If
other
cities
and
states
have
shown
that
good
cause
works
for
tenants,
there's
no
reason
not
to
enact
it
here.
This
state
allegedly
has
relatively
good
tenant
protections
by
this
country's
standards.
B
B
E
A
F
Good
evening,
hi
everyone,
my
name
is:
I
live
in
fall
creek
and
I
live
here
with
my
mother
and
I'm
myself,
medically
disabled
and
we
are
marginalized
immigrants
here,
and
I
wanted
to
share
about
the
good
cause
of
action
and
just
sharing
examples
from
my
own
personal
life,
for
example.
Right
now
we
live
here
and
our
landlord
is
selling
his
house
now
that
doesn't
conflict
with
the
bill
and
we
intend
to
fully
cooperate.
F
We
want
to
move
out
and
just
to
give
an
example
on
how
like
the
good
cause
of
eviction
is
not
in
conflict
with
the
goals
of
the
landlord,
we'll
move
out,
and
it
doesn't
conflict
with
him.
Second
example
I
wanted
to
give
was
I
I
used
to
live
on
slaterville
road
and
I
lived
there
for
almost
half
a
decade
and
my
landlord
and
his
wife.
F
They
were
elderly
couple
and
he
said
that
move
on,
I'm
just
going
to
move
into
the
old
age
house,
and
so
I'm
just
going
to
sell
this
house,
and
so
I
moved
out
from
there.
I
didn't
like
to
move
out,
but
I
because
I
lived
there
for
so
long,
you
know
was
part
of
the
neighborhood
and
after
I
moved
out,
he
renovated
the
house
and
changed
his
mind.
F
So
after
three
years
he's
still
there
and
somebody
else
is
threatening
that
place,
and
I
felt
that
it
was
a
bad
judgment
call
maybe-
and
the
third
example
I
wanted
to
give
was
one
of
my
clients
from
my
computer
services.
He
got
disabled,
he
he
lost
his
fingers
in
an
accident
and
his
landlord
just
removed
him.
He
didn't
renew
the
lease,
even
though
he
was
able
to
pay
the
rent.
F
I'm
just
giving
examples
of
judgment
calls
from
landlords
which
are
selfish
and
prioritized
with
themselves,
and
I
feel
that
good
cause
eviction
causes
them
to
think
about
the
community
first
and
think
that,
okay,
if
this
benefits
my
community
and
therefore
it
benefits
me
versus
versus
the
other
way
around.
So
that's
all.
I
wanted
to
say
to
share
these
three
examples.
D
G
A
A
D
Hi
there,
so
my
comment
is
maybe
a
little
more
general,
but
I
I
I'm
just
gonna
go
ahead
and
start
now,
that's
okay,
sure.
D
On
january
15th,
over
dr
martin
luther
king
jr
weekend
during
a
massive
snowstorm
and
yet
another
covered
winter.
The
new
york
state
government
allowed
the
eviction
moratorium,
which
has
secured
shelter
for
tens
of
thousands
of
the
most
vulnerable
new
yorkers
to
expire,
leaving
renters,
quite
literally
out
in
the
cold
tomorrow
night
tomorrow,
right
here
in
the
city
of
ithaca,
four
households
are
on
the
eviction
docket
on
the
27th.
That
number
rises
to
11
families
at
risk
of
eviction
and
permanent
displacement
from
our
city.
D
Ithaca
is
a
city
of
renters
three
out
of
four
ithaca
city
residents,
rent
our
homes.
So
when
you
evict
us,
you
risk
permanently
unraveling
the
fabric
of
our
city
to
combat
the
violence
of
displacement
and
homelessness.
We
need
a
common
council
to
pass
strong
and
comprehensive
good
cause
legislation.
D
We
need
more
than
a
revised
timeline
for
lease
renewals.
We
need
a
baseline
right
to
remain
in
our
homes,
because
housing
is
a
human
right.
We
also
need
a
robust
right-to-counsel
program
so
that
ithacans
of
all
income
levels
can
receive
quality
representation
to
date.
We
have
not
received
any
details
about
that
program.
D
D
Equitable
landlord-tenant
relations
are
a
matter
of
public
welfare.
In
the
midst
of
a
global
pandemic,
it
is
also
a
matter
of
public
health.
I
employ,
I
implore
you
to
pass
comprehensive,
good
cause
beyond
the
lease
renewal
that
that
has
been
placed
on
the
agenda
tonight.
Thank.
A
G
You
can't
really
functionally
uphold
it.
If
people
can
then
just
be
denied
at
least
renewal
for
absolutely
no
reason
and
like
thinking
about
what
would
the
enforcement
mechanism
for
this
even
be
legally
like
what
happens
if
the
landlord
violates
this
law?
Well,
the
obvious
thing
would
be
that
they
then
can't
deny
that
tenant
lease
renewal.
If
they
start
asking
before
this,
like
required,
wait
period
has
expired.
B
G
And
that's
that's
why
it
needs
to
be
a
part
of
good
cause
legislation
and
doesn't
really
functionally
do
anything
if
it's
separated
out
from
it,
because
there's
no
way
to
enforce
it.
And
if
you
were
to
create
one,
it
would
just
be
like
okay,
this
person's
entitled
to
a
lease
renewal
at
which
point
you've,
just
like
reverse
engineered
good
cause.
So
I
would
say
it's
not
a
bad
idea,
but
it
belongs
as
part
of
the
bill
that
actually
gives
it
away
to
function,
which
is
a
good
cause
and
that
we
need
to
pass
that.
A
H
There
you
go
all
right,
hello,
hi,
hello,
all
of
you,
I'm
going
to
start
out
a
simple
story.
Years
ago
I
chaired
the
charter,
an
ordinance
committee
of
this
council-
and
I
attempted
with
my
colleagues
all
very
young
and
brash-
to
amend
the
plumbing
code,
because
that
made
sense
for
a
lot
of
people
and
we
made
a
mess
of
it.
Why?
H
Because
we
did
it
or
we
tried
to
do
it
without
inviting
the
plumbers
to
the
table,
and
I'm
suggesting
to
you
now
that
you
folks
have
an
opportunity
to
make
some
some
constructive,
useful
changes
to
your
rental
code,
but
you
have
not
engaged
the
landlords
in
and
and
frankly,
in
a
meaningful
way,
and
let
me
give
you
an
example
of
how
artificial
barriers,
artificial
deadlines,
create
unintended
consequences
or
have
unintended
consequences
so
give
under
the
present
legislation.
What
you're
trying
to
do
is
to
take
tonight
under
258.10.
H
You
are
trying
to
change
the
60-day
period
to
180
days
and
you're,
trying
to
eliminate
the
waiver
opportunity
that
that
people
can
enter
into
two
problems
with
that
number
one
you're
going
to
run
into
some
constitutional
issues.
I
know
this
sounds
brash
and
brazen,
but
that's
the
bottom
line.
H
But,
more
importantly,
many
of
you
talked
about
how
well
okay,
we
want
to
protect
the
individual
tenant,
but
the
way
the
legislation
is
written,
there's
nothing
to
preclude
a
landlord
from
showing
the
apartment
virtually
in
other
words,
don't
go
into
the
apartment,
make
arrangements
to
rent
to
a
new
tenant.
Have
it
all
set
up
and
then
at
the
180-day
deadline
simply
sign
up
the
new
tenant.
The
existing
tenant
is
out
in
the
cold
and-
and
my
concern
there
is
this-
is
these
are
little
problems
that
can
be
resolved.
H
Pardon
my
time,
what
is
that
left
side?
No,
not
one
minute,
so,
I'm
speaking
all
right,
fair
enough.
What
I'm
trying
to
explain
to
you
is
that
that,
even
under
this
well-intended
legislation,
the
unintended
consequence
may
very
well
force
existing
tenants,
I'm
talking
primarily
student
housing
kinds
of
tenants,
existing
student
housing,
tenants
from
not
having
the
opportunity
to
renew
their
lease,
because
the
landlord
isn't
going
to
wait
the
180
days
to
begin
virtually
showing
the
apartment
to
other
people,
lining
up
the
tenants
and
eventually
signing
those
people
up
as
soon
as
180
days
is
over.
H
A
C
Have
no
other
speakers,
I
have
two
comments
that
it
was
requested.
There
read
during
public
hearings,
so.
C
Please
time
me
debbie
all
right.
The
first
is
from
christopher
anagnost
a
licensed
real
estate
broker
in
the
city
of
ithaca.
My
family
has
owned
property
in
on
east
hill
in
college
town
since
1949
and
sold
our
last
rental
property.
Earlier
this
year
we
have
rented
primarily
to
cornell
students
undergraduate
and
graduate,
as
well
as
to
visiting
faculty
and
scholars
from
around
the
world.
We
have
also,
in
the
past,
had
ic
students
as
tenants.
C
I
would
ask
that
you
consider
changing
the
notification
requirement
in
this
proposal
to
90
days
minimum
instead
of
180
days,
many
students
who
study
abroad
second
semester
want
their
housing
settled
before
they
leave.
Also
an
exception
should
be
made
for
apartments
or
houses
where
all
residents
are
graduating
at
the
end
of
their
lease
period,
since
they
and
their
in
the
landlord
know
they
aren't
staying.
Why
can't
their
property
be
shown
after
90
days
of
the
start
of
the
lease?
C
C
Thanks
all
right,
this
one
I'm
definitely
going
to
need
a
time,
because
it's
long,
this
one
is
from
nathan
lyman
from
ithaca
rental
company.
C
C
This
section
of
the
code
represents
a
fundamental
misrepresentation
of
the
landlord-tenant
relationship,
and
the
proposed
amendment
seems
to
change
in
search
of
a
problem
that
does
not
exist.
Landlords
who
succeed
in
this
business
usually
do
not
achieve
that
success
by
alienating
their
customers
or
failing
to
take
care
of
their
needs.
The
proposed
law,
as
stated
in
the
preamble,
is
directed
towards
the
student
rentals
landlords
in
other
tenant.
Non-Student
markets
within
the
city
will
not
receive
requests
for
immediate
offers
to
extend
from
their
tenants.
So
it
does
not
impact
those
populations.
C
The
requests
for
prompt
renewal
are
coming
not
from
the
landlords
but
from
the
students
and
their
parents.
So
it
is
important
for
this
board
to
consider
how
that
works.
Cornell
has
announced
that
starting
in
fall
2022
all
first
year.
Second
and
second
year,
students
will
live
on
campus
cornell
does
not
guarantee
a
student
that
they
will
continue
to
live
in
the
same
unit
the
following
year
or
housing
beyond
the
second
year.
C
It
assigns
students
where
to
live
and
has
a
lottery
for
limited
upper
class
accommodations
the
population
the
proposed
law
is
directed
towards
is
basically
only
juniors
who
intend
to
graduate
and
live
off
campus
in
their
senior
year.
The
vast
majority
of
seniors
do
not
continue
in
off-campus
housing
after
graduation,
so
those
leased
units
we
can
already
project
will
be
coming
available.
The
next
rental
season
occasionally
some
seek
graduate
study
at
cornell,
but
that
is
a
very
small
subset.
It
should
not
be
surprising
that
landlords
generally
ask
this
question
of
seniors.
C
C
Their
competition
are
sophomores,
who
have
decided
to
live
off
campus
in
their
junior
year
and
not
risk
the
lottery
for
limited
upper
class
housing
opportunities
on
campus
sophomores
and
their
parents
also
reach
out
as
soon
as
possible
because
they
want
to
secure
the
best
housing
they
can
and
have
certainty
in
their
housing.
We
often
start
receiving
requests
for
pricing
from
our
customers
as
early
as
june
the
year
before
or
about
14
months.
C
Before
the
start
of
a
lease,
the
board
seems
to
be
of
the
opinion
that
law
enlarges
control
the
rental
market
and
are
all
nefarious
bad
actors.
This
is
not
true.
Ithaca
is
a
that's.
That's
a
okay!
Thank
you.
So
you
do
have
the
rest
of
this
comment.
You
did
receive
it,
so
you
can
see
it.
A
Yes,
thank
you.
Lisa
comments
were
sent
in
writing
as
you
as
you
point
out
by
email.
Is
there
any
other
comment
for
public
hearing.
C
There
is
no
other
comment
and
I
would
like
to
just
let
the
speakers
know
that
thank
you
for
their
time
and
I'll
be
they're.
Welcome
to
follow
us
on
youtube,
so
we'll
be
removing
them
from
the
meeting.
A
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Are
there
any
announcements
or
reports
by
any
committee
members
this
evening.
A
Okay,
seeing
none
let's
move
on
to,
we
have.
E
You
I
wanted
to
thank
everybody
who
came
to
speak
tonight.
Just
as
you
know,
we
are
not
actually
going
to
be
talking
about
the
good
cause
legislation.
It's
not
on
the
agenda
tonight.
At
the
last
meeting
of
the
pedc
in
december,
we
decided
to
not
bring
it
back
for
the
january
meeting.
E
E
We
expect
it
to
come
at
any
time
when
that
decision
is
made,
we
will
share
it
with
the
public.
That
is
one
of
the
reasons
we
are
not
bringing
this
forward
for
consideration
by
council
until
that
determination
has
been
made.
As
for
the
legislation
that
we
are
considering,
it's
just
a
discussion
item
tonight.
I'll
save
my
comments
for
that
area
on
the
agenda,
but
I
wanted
to
thank
everybody
for
coming
and
speaking.
A
A
Let's
then
move
on
to
our
action
item,
which
is
the
annual
council
concurrence
that
the
planning
board,
the
lead
agency
and
lisa
has
prepared
an
ema
email,
a
memo
that
describes
this.
But
this
is
a
vote
that
we
take
every
january.
It's
awarding
the
action
of
lead
agency,
so
I'll
read
this
and
I'm
going
to
not
read
the
entirety.
A
A
The
third,
whereas
state
law,
also
specifies
that,
when
an
agency
proposes
to
directly
undertake
fund
or
approve
a
type
one
or
unlisted
action
undergoing
coordinated
review
with
other
involved
agencies,
it
must
notify
them
that
a
lead
agency
must
be
agreed
upon
within
30
calendar
days
of
the
date
that
the
eaf
or
draft
eis
was
transmitted
to
them.
And
whereas
projects
submitted
to
the
planning
board
for
site
plan,
review
and
approval
at
times
involve
approvals
or
funding
from
common
council
making.
A
Council
an
involved
agency
in
environmental
review
and
whereas
in
accordance
with
the
state,
environmental
quality
review
law
and
the
city
of
ithaca
environmental
quality
review.
Ordinance
involved.
Agencies
are
provided
with
project
information
and
environmental
forms
for
the
review,
as
well
as
all
environmental
determination.
A
A
Whereas,
in
order
to
avoid
delays
in
establishing
a
lead
agency
and
to
make
environmental
review
process
more
efficient,
it's
desirous
to
continue
the
agreement
in
which
the
planning
board
will
assume
lead
agency
status
for
such
projects,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
common
council
does
hereby
consent
to
the
planning
and
development
board,
acting
as
lead
agency
in
environmental
review
for
site
plan
review
projects
for
which
common
council
has
been
identified
as
an
involved
agency
through
december
31st
2022,
be
it
further
resolved
that
for
any
future
project
common
council
project
may
withhold
common
council
may
withhold
or
withdraw
its
consent,
should
it
so
desire.
A
E
Yeah,
I
I
do.
Thank
you.
I
think
this
is
great.
It's
very
helpful.
It
streamlines
things
for
for
staff
and
for
new
members
of
council
and
I'm
going
to
look
to
lisa
to
clarify
when
projects
are
coming
in
through
the
planning
board,
we
are
included
in
announcements
with
projects
as
they
are
added
to
the
agenda.
E
It
would
be
important
to
take
a
look
and
see
what's
coming
up.
That
is
actually
our
notification
of
these
projects
coming
forward
and
it
would
then
be
incumbent
on
members
of
council
if
they
so
choose
to
withdraw
its
consent
and
decide
to
request
lead
agency
to
do
so.
I
believe
early
in
the
process,
but
keeping
an
eye
on
those
agendas
is
just
another
thing
that
we
can
do
to
stay
out
in
front.
So
lisa,
would
you
say
that's
the
case
or
have
any
other
advice
with
regards
to
that.
C
So
in
under
law,
when,
when
an
agency
is
about
to
declare
a
lead
agency,
they
have
to
send
out
the
project
information,
the
environmental
forms
to
the
other
involved
agencies.
We
continue
to
do
that.
So
even
before
the
agenda
comes
out,
sometimes
you
will
receive
a
notification
that
there's
a
project,
and
this
is
the
description
and
this
and
the
planning
board
intends
to
act
as
lead
agencies,
so
it's
actually
even
before
the
agendas
come
out
sometimes
so
it's
a
separate
kind
of
kind
of
notification.
C
But
yes,
please
also
keep
an
eye
on
the
agendas,
because
there
are
lots
of
developments
that
you
might
be
interested
in
all
right.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
lisa.
Thank
you
for
that
question
or
comment.
Cynthia
and
lisa's
memo
also
identifies
some
examples
of
projects
in
the
past
and
some
projects
that
might
be
coming
up
in
2022
or
23,
for
example,
development
of
of
inlet
island.
A
So,
thank
you
we'll
now
move
on
to
our
discussion
items,
the
first
of
which
is
the
proposed
amendment
to
city
code.
A
And
let
me
read
a
portion
of
this
and
then
turn
it
over
to
to
lisa
to
further
introduce
it
and
to
patrick
for
for
comment.
C
A
A
A
A
Two,
this
ordinance
shall
take
effect
on
february
3rd
2022
after
publication
of
this
ordinance
pursuant
to
the
city
charter,
and
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
this
is
on
our
agenda
tonight
as
a
discussion
item,
not
a
voting
item
and
that
effective
date
would
of
course
be
adjusted
depending
on
what
we
vote
in
the
future
at
a
future
meeting.
A
So
don't
worry
about
that
date.
That's
that's
listed
there.
So
lisa
did
you
have
any
comments
initially
and
then
we'll
turn
it
over
to
patrick.
Also,
I
don't
have
any.
A
Okay
and
and
once
again
your
memo
that
you
provided
december
21st
on
this
proposed
amendment
is,
is
very
helpful.
So
then
I'll
open
it
up,
patrick,
shall
I
turn
it
over
to
you
for
comment.
First,.
I
Thank
you
so
much,
and
thank
you
to
everybody
who
spoke
before
as
well.
I
really
appreciate
I've
gotten
a
ton
of
feedback
in
the
past
30
or
so
days
since,
through
this
idea
out
there.
Something
that
laura
just
said
I
want
to
emphasize
is
that
this
is
intentionally
up
for
discussion
and
my
hope
would
actually
be
that
it's
up
for
discussion
again
next
time.
I
really
think
this
is
a
bill
like
ray
had
mentioned
before.
That
needs
time
to
discuss
with
everybody.
I
think
the
february
third
day
was
a
place
holder.
I
I
apologize
for
that
problem
at
the
bottom
of
that
we
can
definitely
move
to
change
that
there
are
a
host
of
things
I
I'm
sure
we'll
talk
about
as
we
discuss
the
bill
a
couple
of
them
being.
I
know
a
ton
of
people
have
reached
out
to
me
individually
and
I
apologize
if
I've
not
gotten
back
to
every
individual
one.
Yet
there
are
a
couple
general
themes
I
was
hoping
to
to
share
and
just
sort
of
address,
the
main
one
being
that
this
is
targeted
specifically
towards
cornell
students.
I
I
For
one
group,
it
happens
to
benefit
a
ton
of
groups,
including
college
students,
but
it
is
not
specifically
intended
to
ever
legislate
just
one
specific
subject
of
the
city,
a
couple
of
other
things.
I
I
just
wanted
to
to
comment
on
before
we
for
everybody
starts
to
discuss.
I
Was
I
found
a
lot
of
the
letters
from
landlords
both
very
helpful,
and
I
was
surprised
to
see
how
much
everybody
actually
agreed
on
a
lot
of
these
things.
I
know
the
lisa
just
read
into
into
the
record
about
I'm
blanking
on
his
name.
I
think
it
was
chris.
We
were
saying
you
know,
we
think
90
days
is
an
appropriate
amount
and
the
type
of
discussion
I'm
hoping
to
facilitate
but
just
generate
is
to
say
that
we
have
a
system
that
is
currently
exploiting
a
lot
of
people.
I
We
have
a
current
system
that
exploits
folks
who
are
both
here
for
two
to
four
years
and
folks
who
have
been
here
for
40
years,
and
my
intent
is
to
help
as
many
people
as
possible
and
and
that
exploitation
of
them.
So
a
couple
of
other
real,
quick
things
I
was
just
noticing.
I
think
I
had
a
lot
of
lines
that
I
had
written
from
some
of
the
letters
that
were
sent
the
most
being
that
everybody
seems
to
agree
that
we
need
time.
I
I
completely
agree
with
you,
which
is
why
I
think
folks
should
have
more
time
before
they
decide
whether
or
not
they
should
renew
for
an
entire
year
in
a
year
from
now
with
those
same
roommates,
there's
a
lot
of
folks
who
were
saying
how
at
the
this
is
sorry,
my
handwriting
is
real
poor,
but
that
the
all
these
early
rentals
are
currently
driven
by
students,
and
I
know
this
is
the
biggest
thing
we're
probably
to
talk
about-
is
whether
or
not
there's
a
time
crunch
at
the
start
of
august
and
june
for
people
to
rent.
I
I
Have
it
the
idea
that
you
know
I
know
we're
not
talking
about
the
good
cause,
I'm
happy
to
hear
what
the
solicitor
general
puts
out
and
what
the
state
legislator
decides
on
their
own,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
the
thing
that
really
concerns
me
is
that
the
reason
people
agree
and
are
exploited
and
agree
to
these
predatory
things.
Saying
hey,
I'm
going
to
sign
this
lease
11
months
before
it
even
starts
it's
because
they're
concerned
that
they're
told
we've
already
waived
your
right
to
wait.
I
60
days,
we've
waived
your
right
to
even
wait
at
all
and
if
you
don't
agree
now
we're
going
to
give
it
to
somebody
else.
So
I'm
happy
to
open
up
the
discussion
and
hear
other
folks
have
to
say.
I
think
the
the
best
thing
at
least
I
have
garnered
so
far.
Is
that
there's
a
lot
we
agree
on
and
there's
a
ton
that
of
room
to
work
with
and
I'd
love,
to
hear
everybody's
thoughts
on
what
else
we
can
do
and
then
once
we're
a
little
further
in
laura.
I
If
I
may
suggest
an
amendment
to
to
change
the
date
to
some
other
arbitrary
number
that
we
can
fix
later
and
suggest
new
whereases
as
well.
A
E
Yeah,
I
I
very
much
support
the
changes
that
are
being
proposed
in
spirit.
I
very
much
identified
with
the
negative
impact
that
the
waiver
had
created
on
our
rental
market.
Basically,
students
and
all
renters
are
likely
to
receive
a
lease
that
eliminates
their
option
of
even
having
a
period
of
time
where
they
could
consider
whether
or
not
they
wanted
to
renew
the
lease
and
many
many
renters
found
themselves
with
landlords
who
were
immediately
advertising
their
units
as
soon
as
they
moved
in.
E
I
appreciated
ray's
comments
that
he
said
that
there's
nothing
that
would
prohibit
a
landlord
from
showing
the
property
remotely,
which
I
think
under
the
language.
It
actually
says
that
the
property
shall
not
be
shown,
but
if
we
need
to
be
more
clear
and
say
showing
the
residential
unit,
either
in
person
or
virtually
to
prospective
new
tenants
and
include
that
in
the
in
the
prohibition
in
that
waiting
period,
I'm
happy
to
elaborate
to
identify
the
loophole
that
ray
schlatter
has
ident
has
mentioned
earlier
to
to
patrick's
point.
E
E
I
have
universally
heard
from
students
their
dismay
at
not
having
time
to
live
in
a
unit,
determine
whether
or
not
it's
appropriate
for
them
in
terms
of
location
in
terms
of
noise,
in
terms
of
their
schedule,
activity
for
for
renters
who
begin
their
lease
in
june
and
don't
move
into
august
because
of
their
personal
schedule.
E
They
they
often
time,
have
not
had
a
chance
to
to
experience
this
before
they're
pressured
to
renew
or
find
themselves
basically
having
to
find
another
place.
I
think
that
the
180-day
period
is
too
long.
I
identify
that
we
are
saying
that
any
lease,
that's
nine
months
or
longer,
should
have
a
180-day
waiting
period.
That
means
this
first
six
months
there
would
be
a
waiting
period
and
you
you
know
a
three-month
window,
then
to
negotiate
your
lease
renewal
or
allow
the
landlord
to
advertise.
E
The
apartment,
I
think,
is
too
short,
so
I
I
don't
support
the
180
days.
I
am
right
now
very
open
to
the
90-day
proposal
from
many
landlords.
I've
spoken
with,
they
seem
in
support
of
the
90
days.
It's
something
that
they
can
work
with.
E
It
allows
more
flexibility
in
terms
of
when
that
unit
could
be
advertised
if,
if
it's
not
being
renewed
and
working
with
the
holiday
schedule
and
and
student
schedule
for
to
come
up
with
a
new
renter,
I
think
it
provides
a
lot
more
flexibility
to
have
a
90-day
waiting
period
and
especially
with
the
elimination
of
the
waiver.
A
Did
did
you
have
something
further
on
that
cynthia?
I
didn't
mean
to
cut
you
off.
E
I
think
that's
it,
but
I'll
reserve
the
ability
to
raise
my
hand
again.
A
Sure
sure,
of
course,
and
remember
this
is,
as
we've
all
said,
on
tonight's
agenda,
as
a
discussion
item
and
patrick
indicated
that
it
may
very
well
be
the
case
that
at
our
next
pedc
meeting
it
would
also
continue
to
be
a
discussion
item
as
to
use
ray
schlatter's
image.
A
We
want
everyone
at
the
table
and
to
be
thoughtful
in
this
this
process
and
propose
to
change
rob.
Did
you
have
comments.
J
Yeah,
thank
you
laura
and
also
thanks,
patrick,
for
bringing
this
forward
and
for
everyone
else
who
spoke
and
and
also
for
cynthia
who
hit
on
all
the
points
I
was
hoping
to
bring
up.
But
I'll
just
reiterate
those.
I
agree
that
we
probably
want
to
look
at
the
the
number
of
days
really
carefully.
J
I.
I
also
think
that
it's
important
to
highlight
that
the
the
waving
or
getting
rid
of
this
waiver
that
there's
a
mutual
agreement,
I
think,
is
really
important,
because
that
then
puts
some
teeth
into
the
number
in
60
days.
As
cynthia
just
pointed
out.
Many
of
these
leases
start
in
june
or
june
15th
and
60
days
later,
especially
in
the
case
of
college,
students
may
not
have
even
occupied
the
lease,
and
I
get
it
from
a
legal
standpoint.
J
J
The
number
of
days
will
be
important,
so,
yes,
I'm
hoping
that
we
can
come
to
that
kind
of
discussion
and
patrick
thank
you
for
being.
You
know
so
sort
of
setting
the
stage
for
the
fact
that
you,
you
know
we're
going
to
have
this
conversation
about
what
makes
sense
and
I'll
just
reiterate
that
I
think
ray's
point
is
well
taken
that
we
we
do
want
to
have
the
right
voices
at
the
table
while
we're
figuring
this
out.
So
thanks.
I
I
I
guess
I
would
push
a
little
further
to
say
I
think,
for
nine
month
lease
I
I
said
the
year
points
really
well
taken
that
if
it's
a
nine
month
lease
they
have
to
wait
six
months,
I
think
half
of
nine
two
so
135
would
be
half
of
a
of
a
nine
month.
Lease,
I
think,
maybe
considering
something
like
120
days,
makes
a
nice
sort
of
a
third
of
people
who
have
regular
year-round
leases.
It
brings
it
down.
I
Oh
sorry,
yeah
a
third
in
sort
of
that
sense,
less
than
half
for
folks,
either
in
any
more
than
9
10
11
month
lease
situation,
but
I'd
love
to
hear
people's
thoughts
on
if
the
number
to
change
from
180
to
120.
I
A
A
A
Yes,
robert
cantelmo,
not
a
member
of
our
committee,
but
a
member
of
council
is
here
and
he's
asked
if
he
could
offer
a
comment
too.
So
certainly
robert.
K
Thank
you
very
much,
laura
I'm
going
to
lend
my
voice
to
some
of
what
my
colleagues
have
already
said.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
for
me
I
think
patrick's
proposed
removal
of
section
b3,
which
is
the
mutual
waving
of
notice
period.
I
think,
helps
to
provide
the
the
bulk
of
the
rebalance
here.
I
want
to
echo
with
what
you
know,
patrick
cynthia
and
rob
have
said
in
that.
K
I
think
you
know,
underscoring
any
discussion
of
this
and
an
eventual
conclusion
whether
it's
you
know
the
current
60
day
90
day,
120
180
whatever
it
is
right.
I
think
all
those
are
small
comfort
unless
tenants
that
work
you
know,
living
and
operating
in
a
tight
rental
market
are
are
not
under
that
pressure
to
waive
something
to
have
their
application
be
competitive,
and
so
I
I
wanted
to
just
say.
I
think
that
particular
piece
you
know
of
your
of
your
intended
legislation,
patrick,
is,
is
well
well
intentioned.
A
E
I'm
just
making
a
little
calendar
to
try
to
evaluate
what
the
120
days
would
have.
I'm
looking
at
two
possible
start
times,
but
of
course
there's
a
myriad
of
that,
but
it
seems
most
common,
especially
in
the
in
for
the
student
population,
that
leases
tend
to
start
either
in
august
or
in
june.
E
So
for
120
days
in
june
with
the
june
start.
I
think
that
that
actually,
that
works
pretty
well,
it
wouldn't
go
from
june
to
september,
would
be
the
waiting
period
and
then
you
could
start
advertising
and
showing
the
unit
in
october
november,
which
gives
a
few
more
months
before
winter
comes
and
and
people
are
gone
for
a
month
for
the
holidays,
and
then
I
guess
with
finals
and
graduation
in
in
may
so
for
an
a
june
start.
I
think
120
days
works.
E
I
think
it's
very
constrained
when
you
start
talking
about
an
august
start,
because
then
180
days
expire
basically
december
1st,
which
is
right
up
right
before
christmas.
So
students
are
going
to
be
gone
december
january,
then
you
have
february
march
april
and
then
they're
gone
in
may
so
it
really
compresses
the
time.
E
That's
it's
available
or
convenient
for
people
to
be
looking
for
apartments,
perhaps
making
it
much
harder
for
landlords
to
turn
that
unit
around
and
clean
it
up,
get
it
ready
and
and
get
everything
in
place
so,
which
is
why,
for
me,
going
back
to
90
days
seemed
to
give
a
lot
of
flexibility
for
both
a
june
start
date
and
an
august
start
date.
What
I
definitely
don't
want
to
see
is
I
don't
want
to
see
all
of
the
leases
turning
to
august,
because
it
gives
a
landlord
more
flexibility.
A
Patrick
you
had
a
comment
and
then
rob
you
said
in
chat
in
the
chat
that
you
have
a
visual.
I
wonder
if
we
can
allow
you
to
share
your
screen,
but
let's
go
to
patrick's
comment.
First,
if,
if
you
don't
mind
patrick.
I
This
is
why
you
know
I
should
stay
or
not.
So
I
guess
in
my
head
and
the
idea
of
the
180
originally
as
well-
is
that
it's
better
for
there
to
be
more
slack
on
the
back
end
than
less
on
the
front
end
of
that,
if
you
have
a
june
lease,
it's
good
that
you
have.
You
need
at
least
a
certain
amount
of
time
to
be
there,
and
so
I
think
the
120.
A
Yes,
these
are
tricky
decisions
and
discussions
about
these
dates,
not
wanting
to
add
slack
on
the
back
end
and
really
wanting
tenants
and
landlords
to
have
flexibility
to
make
the
best
choices
possible
for
tenants
to
make
the
best
choices
for
themselves.
J
You
know
if
it's
helpful,
I
mean
it's
just
a
little
spreadsheet
that
can
be
adjusted
to
show
start
and
and
end
dates
or
start
dates,
and
also
just
add
it
in
especially
when
we're
thinking
about
students,
if
they're
here
just
for
the
academic
year,
you
know
how
many
days
between
say
a
renewal
date
and
and
say
the
middle
of
may,
when
they
might
actually
be
leaving
town
again
is
available
for
them.
So
I
can
share
that.
I
think
I
haven't
tried
yet,
but.
J
I
can
make
it
larger
if
you
need
to,
but
you
know
so
right
now
at
180
days
to
patrick's.
Well,
let
me
make
it
smaller
right,
like
90
days
to
patrick's
point.
If
you
then
looked
at
the
june
1st
june,
1st
least
or
june
15th,
please
it's.
You
know,
you're
already
asked
being
asked
to
renew
right
around
the
time
you're
moving
in
and
getting
settled,
so
that's
tricky.
J
But
if
you
were
to
look
you
know
and
again,
at
the
longer
lease
180
days
that
august
lease
wouldn't
get
renewed
until
february
right,
so
so
that
chap
that
might
cause
some
challenges
on
the
other
side.
For.
J
I
Yeah,
so
I
I
think
this
spreadsheet
actually
really
really
illustrates.
I
think
what
I
was
trying
to
say
of
that
coming
down
to
120
people
with
june
leases
have
a
ton
of
time
now.
Both
the
landlord
has
a
ton
of
time
to
show
it
and
decide,
and
the
tenant
still
has
a
decent
amount
of
time
to
live
there
like
both
legally
occupy
and
actually
occupy,
and
even
when
it
goes
up
to
people
with
the
latest
of
august
15.
I
You
still
have
a
solid
five
months
to
go
through
everything
and
you
have
an
entire
almost
half
a
year.
You
know
from
the
180
you
you
get
a
lot
more
time.
I
think
this
just
this
really
well
illustrates
the
idea
that
both
tenants
and
landlords
have
ample
time
to
either
to
bolt
to
live
in
the
the
residential
area
and
to
be
there
and
then
also
example,
time
if
they
decide
they
don't
want
to
anymore,
to
show
it
to
other
people
and
to
get
new
tenants
as
well.
J
A
Yes
and
we'll
find
a
way
for
this
to
be
included.
Well,
it's
included
in
the
recording
of
tonight's
meeting
and
will
be
included
in
the
minutes
and
rob
will
send
it
around.
Okay,.
C
A
And
we've
heard
from
a
number
of
people
who've
spoken
tonight:
we've
received
emails,
patrick
you've
received
emails.
All
of
us
on
council
have
received
emails,
so
we'll
take
a
look
at
where
it
makes
sense
to
reach
out
so
that
we
have
more
input
for
our
february
discussion.
How's
that
sound
okay.
A
I
Sure
so
I
moved
to
amend
the
whereases
as
to
nix,
remove
both
of
them
and
simply
put,
whereas
all
tenants
should
be
allowed
time
to
make
informed
and
unhurried
decisions
about
whether
to
renew
leases
without
pressure
from
property
owners
semicolon,
therefore,
it
and
other
than
the
air
force,
and
then
also
to
amend
the
february
third
date
to
say
I
guess
I'm
not
sure
what
would
standard
would
be.
We
made
just
30
days
after
its
passage.
E
So,
and-
and
I'm
not
opposed
to
this-
this
was
brought
forward
as
a
discussion
item.
It
was
not
moved
or
seconded.
What
we
have
is
something
that
that
was
voted
on.
So
if
we
are
going
to
be
making
changes,
I
think
we
technically
have
to
move
and
second
it
and
then
make
changes
and
then
vote
to
bring
it
back
next
month.
A
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you
good
point.
So
is
there
a
motion
on
the
resolution
on
the
ordinance?
I
move
someone
cynthia
move
patrick
seconds
all
those
in
favor.
A
E
I
C
Can
I
can
I
make
a
suggestion?
I
don't
think
you
I
mean
you
you're
discussing
it,
so
I
think
you
can
change
things
in
the
course
of
the
discussion
to
develop
the
product
that
you
then
want
to
vote
on,
and
you
could
patrick
could
do
this
by
email
so
that
we
have
the
exact
language
he
could
send
it
and
then
that
could
be
distributed
for
the
next
meeting,
along
with
the
other
suggestions
and
then.
J
J
J
E
And
I
do
think
lisa
you,
you
turned
what
we
had
previously
voted
on
into
its
current
format.
You
cleaned
it
up
quite
a
bit
to
turn
it
into
an
ordinance,
but
what
was
already
in
there
now
has
been
voted
on
previously.
J
J
And
then
the
four
discs
for
yes
for
our
ability
to
then
make
a
motion
to
amend
it.
C
J
I
Okay,
so
again,
I
I
move
to
remove
the
current
whereases
and
replace
it
with,
whereas
all
tenants
should
be
allowed
time
to
make
informed
and
unhurried
decisions
without
sorry
and
decisions
about
whether
to
renew
leases
without
pressure
from
property
owners,
therefore
be
ordained
and
enacted
that
and
then
all
of
the
tax
that
we
have.
In
that
part,
I
like
to
change
180
to
120
and
then
at
the
final
end,
where
it
says
february
3rd.
I
wish
to
replace
that
with
30
days.
I
A
I
think
you
said
after
it's
passage,
and
that
may
be
the
language,
but
we
will
also
run
this
by
ahri
before
it
is
recirculated,
because
these
are
substantive
changes,
so
it
will
be
recirculated
and
the
next
question
before
we
we
do
vote
on
this
right.
I
need
to
ask:
would
there
then
be
scheduling
of
another
public
hearing.
C
D
E
As
the
person
who
moved
it,
I
support
his
changes,
so
I
don't
know
if
that
requires
a
vote.
E
Think
that's
friendly,
that's
friendly
to
me,
I
know
rob,
has
a
question
and
then
I
do
have
a
another
edit.
I
would
like
to
propose.
J
Yeah,
it's
just
maybe
more
comment
for
the
public,
which
is
we're
making
these
amendments
now,
and
this
would
get
circulated
with
those
amendments
or
those
changes,
and
that
would
not
preclude
us
from
also
making
additional
changes
when
we
vote
for
the
ordinance
just
in
case,
anyone
thinks
we're
voting
for
120
days
right
now
and
it
will
never
change.
A
E
So
I
would
like
to
propose
some
language
to
a2.
A
Yeah
and
I
think
that's
a
helpful
addition
to
a
helpful
clarification,
because
some
units
are
shown
virtually
we've
heard
from
many
landlords
and
we've
heard
from
tenants
that
the
preference
of
course
is
to
see
a
unit
in
person.
That
is
not
always
possible.
So
I
think
that's
a
helpful
edit
and
if
cynthia,
if
you
could
also
provide
that
language
to
lisa
and
rob,
did
you
have
a
point
on
this?
I.
J
J
You
know
in
a
phase
of
active
renewal
until
a
certain
date,
and
so
I'm
not
sure
that's
an
appropriate
restriction
there.
But
I
think
the
point
about
virtual
showing
which
I
can't
remember,
who
it
was
that
brought
that
up.
If
it
were
one
of
our
speakers
tonight
or
maybe
a
letter
that
came
in
noted
that
somebody
might
be
virtually
showing
this
prior
to
the
deadline,
and
I
think
that's
an
appropriate
point
to
make.
E
Perhaps
it's
a
comfort
level
element
that
I
feel
you
know
if
you
are
a
tenant
and
you
see
that
your
apartment
is
constantly
being
advertised,
even
though
you
just
moved
in
whether
or
not
it's
electronically
or
a
sign
on
the
door.
It
creates
an
environment
where
you
just
feel
like
your
landlord
is
just
moving
you
out
or
anxious
to
move
you
out
so
by
by
having
a
living
space,
where
you're
not
constantly
reminded
that
your
unit
is
being
up
for
rent.
E
I
think
it
provides
some
dignity
to
the
individual
there
that
that
advertising
be
taken
down
and
if
it's
being
done
electronically,
it's
not
a
difficult
thing
to
do
for
many
landlords,
if
they're
posting
it,
but
I
think
it
is
reasonable
that
they
would
take
that
advertising
down
when
we
don't
even
know
if
that
person
will
want
to
renew
they
might
want
to
renew.
A
So
patrick,
can
I
turn
to
you
for
your
view
on
this
potential
change.
I
I
I
I
agree
with
cynthia
that
I
think
it
does
create
an
environment
of
like
we're
ready
to
get
you
out
already,
but
to
also
to
I
think,
what's
part
of
rob's
point
of
you
also
want
to
like
have
it
accessible
like
you
also
want
to
be
able
to
to
see,
I
guess
from
a
new
tenant's
perspective,
or
even
a
current
test
perspective,
to
see
if
it's
on
the
market,
so
I
I'm
not
honestly
either
way.
I
think
we
should
talk
more
about
it
about
the
advertising
part
specifically.
A
So
if
it
makes
sense
tonight,
because
again,
this
will
be
discussed
in
february
if
we
want
to
hold
on
finalizing
this
language
in
number,
two
think
about
the
changes.
So
for
the
moment,
do
we
want
to
agree
to
list
in
this
draft
for
further
for
circulation
and
further
discussion
advertising
and
showing
the
residential
unit
to
prospective
new
tenants
virtually
or
in
person?
E
Cynthia
yeah,
I
think
I
like
the
word
listing
better
than
advertising.
I
do
distinguish
you
know
listing
an
apartment
available
for
rent
different
from
contact
me.
If
you
are
interested
in
renting
here,
I
think
there's
a
difference
between
a
generic
here's.
The
rental
company
contact
us
versus
this
unit
this
unit.
This
unit
is
available
for
rent.
So,
if
listing
is
more
specific,
I
think
I
would
support
that
language.
So
yeah.
A
Okay
sounds
like
we've
reached
consensus
on
the
language
there,
all
right
so
do
we
need
a
vote
on
recirculating.
This.
A
A
A
Now
I've
asked
lisa
for
the
benefit
of
committee
members
for
our
new
common
council
members.
I
wasn't
sure
if
older
person
brown
would
be
joining
us
tonight
or
not,
but
lisa
acting
director
of
planning
will
present
a
planning
and
development
overview
of
the
department
and
the
2022
draft
work
plan
and
lisa
thanks
so
much
for
pulling
this
together.
I
know
you
have
a
busy
schedule
and
this
is
really
helpful
to
see.
So
why
don't?
I
turn
it
over
to
you.
Okay,.
C
Well,
thanks
very
much
for
giving
me
the
opportunity
to
give
you
a
brief
overview
of
our
department
and-
and
I
hope
that,
as
I
speak
I'll-
try
to
keep
it
brief,
we'll
you
know
there'll
be
an
opportunity
for
a
bigger
or
more
detailed
orientation
later,
but
but,
as
I'm
speaking,
I
think
you
know,
having
the
work
plan
in
front
of
you
might
be
helpful
to
flesh
out
some
of
the
things
I
say
and
also
I
have
you
know,
I
would
like
some
feedback
on
the
work
plan
at
the
end
of
this
too.
C
So,
yes,
so
the
department
of
planning
and
development-
and
I
you
know
the
way
we
think
of
what
we
do
as
a
whole.
We
have
lots
of
different
areas
of
practice
and
expertise.
Is
we
manage
growth
and
change
in
accordance
with
the
community's
vision
as
set
forth
and
comprehensive
and
other
plans,
as
well
as
state
and
local
laws,
and
in
doing
that
we
strive
for
a
safe,
sustainable,
equitable,
economically
diverse
community
for
those
who
live,
work
or
play
or
otherwise
frequent
the
city?
C
So
so
we
have
two
divisions:
building
the
building
division
and
the
planning
division
planning
has
lots
of
different
areas
and
the
building
is
a
little
bit
more
straightforward,
but
I
just
want
to
talk
about
this
idea
of
like
managing
growth
and
change
a
little
bit.
So
you
know,
I
think
you
know
what
we
do
as
as
the
planning
and
development
department
is,
you
know,
growth
and
change
can
happen
to
us.
It
can
happen
to
us
it
can.
C
We
can
try
to
make
it
happen
and
it
can
be
due
to
economic,
political,
social
forces.
It
can
be
internal
or
external,
and
so
we
do
different
kinds
of
management.
Sometimes
we
do
proactive
management
where
we
say
okay,
you
know
it
is
the
community's
desire
for
this
outcome.
So
how
can
we
make
that
happen?
How
can
we
manifest
that
growth
and
change?
Sometimes
we
respond
to
maybe
there's
a
new
state
or
federal
law
that
we
have
to
comply
to
or
there's
a
community
goal
like,
for
instance,
the
green
new
deal.
How
do
we?
C
How
do
we
manifest
that
change,
that
that
is
the
community's
desire?
And
then
there's
you
know,
we
also
do
a
fair
amount
of
reactive
management.
For
you
know,
say
there
are
complaints
about
something
housing
which
construction
management.
There
is
you
know
in
in
response
to
the
pandemic.
There
were
certain
activities
we
undertook
to
help
ease
the
situation
for
some
of
the
population.
So
that's
how
we
think
about
change,
so
the
building
division,
the
building
division,
has
basically
three
main
functions.
They
do
other
things
as
well.
C
But
again,
my
purpose
tonight
is
to
give
you
a
broader
overview,
so
the
first
is
is
safe
housing,
so
they
inspect
rental
housing
for
compliance
with
local
codes
and
they
issue
certificates
of
compliance
also
known
as
c
of
c's,
and
you
know
that
is
when
a
rental
when
rental
property
has
a
cfc,
sometimes
they're.
You
know
there
are
listings.
I
know
cornell
keeps
listing
for
rental
properties
where
they
have
to
have
a
cfc,
so
that's
done
on
a
periodic
basis.
C
They
ensure
safe
building.
So
any
new
construction
of
any
size
has
to
meet
local
code
and
code
inspectors
go
out
and
inspect
the
building
as
it
is
going
up
or
the
small
project
as
it
is
being
installed,
and
they
also
implement
the
ithaca
energy
code
supplement,
which
is
commonly
known
as
the
green
building
policy.
C
But
it
is
a
actual
encode
now
where
buildings
have
to
meet
a
pretty
stringent
energy
energy
standard,
so
they
implement
this
for
us,
the
and
then
the
building
can
also
can
they
can
also
condemn
buildings
or
stop
work
on
construction
sites.
C
If
there
are
violations
that
are
serious
enough
or
situations
like
that,
building
also
does
property
maintenance
for
health
safety
and
aesthetics
there's
a
property
they
they
implement
the
property,
exterior
property
maintenance
ordinance,
so
they
go
out
and
look
at
properties
for
that
are
out
of
compliance,
and
you
know
common
situations
are,
you
know,
snow
removal
after
storm
or
trash,
and
they
can
cite
properties
when
they
are
out
of
compliance.
A
C
They
they
do
occur
on
a
periodic
basis.
I
think
ideally
they're
supposed
to
be
done
every
three
years.
I
don't
believe
that
we're
able
to
do
that.
One
of
the
complications
is
that
it's
a
it's.
It's
somewhat
voluntary,
so
house,
a
housing
inspector,
the
the
the
staff
that
do
these
inspections
have
to
get
permission
from
the
owner
in
order
to
enter
the
property.
C
So
if
they
can't
get
permission,
if
you
know
they
can't,
they
can't
inspect
it,
but
it
is
in
many
landlords
best
interest
to
have
a
cfc,
and
so
they
maintain
the
inspections.
Of
course,
there
are
situations
like
you
know:
affordable
housing,
housing
authority,
housing
that
gets
inspected.
Obviously,
through
an
agency
they
they
allow
the
inspectors
to
come
in,
I'm
not
sure
how
they
deal
with
mold,
but
I
certainly
find
that
out
for
you.
E
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you
so
much
for
elevating
the
work
of
the
building
division.
They
provide
such
an
integral
component
of
our
public
safety
oversight,
and
their
work
is
just
incredibly
essential
when
you
think
about
all
of
the
not
only
the
construction
that
is
being
done
in
the
building.
E
One
of
the
the
features
that
I
think
would
be
very
helpful
for
all
of
our
residents
is
easy
access
to
seeing
what
rental
units
actually
have
a
certificate
of
compliance.
As
you
mentioned,
this
is
largely
voluntary
and
there
perhaps
is
a
large
population
of
units
that
do
not
have
a
current
cfc
is.
I
know
that
cornell
has
a
feature
I
think,
on
its
off-campus
website,
where
you
can
actually
look
up
units
to
see
if
they
have
a
certificate
of
compliance.
E
Do
we
have
a
similar
feature
on
our
city
website
so
that
the
general
public
might
be
able
to
refer
to
this
and
have
access
to
this
information?
And,
and
can
you
also
talk
about
the
the
legislation
we
passed?
I
think:
was
it
just
a
couple
years
ago
requiring
all
rental
units
to
actually
prominently
display
the
cfc
in
the
unit
itself?
C
So
we
do
not
have
that
feature
on
our
website
and
let
me
look
into
that
a
little
bit.
I
know
that
was
discussed
when
cornell
decided
to
do
this.
There
was
a
lot
of
discussion
around
it.
I
don't
remember
every
aspect
of
it,
but
let
me
look
into
it
and
I
think
that
you
know
for
those
again
for
those
for
whom
a
cfc
is
important
and
a
marketing
feature.
E
But
I
I
do
believe
that
council,
I
want
to
say
a
couple
years
ago,
but
time
is
I
don't
know
anymore,
that
we
did
actually
have
a
requirement
that
rental
units
are
supposed
to
prominently
display
the
cfc,
I
believe
in
the
kitchen
cabinet.
J
J
H
A
C
Yes,
we
currently
have
three
vacancies
in
the
building
division
and
we
are
advertising
and
strategizing
how
to
hire
it's
been.
The
issue
is
that
the
tight
job
market,
which
is
difficult
to
get
people
to
apply,
but
we
have
made
some
progress
and
we
hope
to
continue.
C
All
right
ready
to
move
on
to
plan
yeah,
so
planning
has
many
functions
and
roles
and
I'll
just
go
over
them
kind
of
quickly
and
see.
If
you
have
any
questions
so
one
you
know,
one
of
the
main
things
we
do
is
we
leave
planning
efforts
to
establish
the
community
goals
and
vision,
so
that's,
for
instance,
the
comprehensive
plan.
C
We
do
area
plans,
we're
currently
working
on
the
downtown
plan,
and
so,
if
you've
looked
at
our
comp
plan,
if
you
have
an
opportunity,
it's
a
nice
document,
it
needs
one
of
you'll
see
on
the
work
plan.
One
of
our
one
of
our
goals
is
to
update
it
because
it
was
adopted
in
2015.
C
But
since
the
comp
plan
we've
done
a
waterfront
plan,
we
we're
currently
working
on
a
south
side
plan
we're
currently
working
on
the
downtown
plan
and
that
establishes
kind
of
the
broad
goals
and
and
recommendations
that
then
involve
the
other
work
that
we
do
so,
for
instance,
once
there
is
a
plan
and
vision,
we
develop
legislation
and
policies
to
support
those
goals
and
visions.
So
that
would
be
zoning
so
say.
C
If
you
know,
for
instance,
in
the
college
town
plan,
there
was
a
decision
to
concentrate
all
the
development
into
the
center
of
college
town,
and
so
zoning
went
along
with
that
to
regulate
where,
where
the
highest
development
should
go.
We
also
have
things
like
design
guidelines
that
have
been
developed
to
guide
the
planning
board
in
the
development
and.
H
C
So
it's
you
know
we
do
do
a
fair
amount
of
development
of
legislation
and
policy
for
community
goals,
all
right,
promoting
a
diverse
and
healthy
economic
economy
through
economic
development
initiatives
and
activities,
and
so
a
lot
of
the
work
we
do
has
you
know
intersects
with
economic
development
but,
as
probably
many
of
you
know,
the
city
has
a
real
commitment
to
economic
development
because
we
have
a
deputy
director
of
economic
development,
tom
knight,
and
so
that
maybe
some
of
you
have
you
know
talked
to
him,
but
and-
and
you
should,
if
you
haven't,
he
has
a
particular
work
program
that
he
works
through
some
of
the
some
of
his
main
initiatives.
C
Right
now
are
the
conference
center,
which
he
has
been
very
involved
with,
and
he
does
he's
doing
working
on
a
project
for
small-scale
manufacturing.
He
does
business
recruitment
and
retention,
and
you
will
get
a
report
from
tom
of
of
the
economic
activities.
Economic
development
activities
of
the
department
at
some
time
this
year,
usually
once
a
year,
he
does
a
report
like
I
said
we
have
a
you
know
specific
stuff
dedicated
towards
economic
development,
tom
and
then
you
know,
many
of
our
other
activities
have
to
do
with
economic
development,
so
sustainability.
C
So
we
have
had
sustainability
projects
and
staff
in
our
department
for
quite
a
long
time.
I
think
it
was
about
maybe
2008
or
nine
we
had.
We
did
our
first
climate
action
plan
and
then
nick
goldsmith,
who
recently
left
us
for
to
work
full-time
for
the
town
was
here
for
almost
10
years
and
he
was
our
part-time
sustainability
planner
and
one
of
his
main
goals
was
doing.
The
ithaca
energy
code
supplement
requiring
new
construction
to
have
a
higher
standard
than
new
york
state
code.
C
But,
of
course
also,
as
you
know,
the
city
recently
made
a
very
large
commitment
to
this
by
hiring
a
director
of
sustainability,
luis
aguirre
torres,
who
many
of
you
have
probably
met
or
spoken
with,
and
his
job
was
to
develop
a
program
that
implements
the
goals
of
the
green
new
deal,
which
are
you
know,
carbon
neutrality
by
2030,
and
making
sure
that
the
benefits
of
of
carbon
neutrality
are
shared
among
all
local
communities
to
reduce
historical
and
social
economic
inequities.
C
And
one
thing
that
will
you
know,
and
so
he'll
also
probably
come
to
do
a
presentation
on
his
work.
He
has
a
number
of
initiatives
that
we'll
get
into
in
more
detail
at
a
different
time,
but
one
of
the
you
know,
one
of
the
aspects
of
the
work
is
also
to
have
not
just
community-wide
goals,
but
also
to
have
goals
for
the
city
organization.
So
we
are
walking
the
walk
as
well.
So
that
is
the
goals
for
the
city
within
the
green.
C
New
deal
are
to
do
100
renewable
electricity
by
2025
for
all
city
operations
and
then
to
reduce
the
emissions
of
our
fleet
by
50
for
2025,
so
that
we
are
also
following
our
rules
all
right.
So
another
area
is
ensuring
zoning
compliance,
not
just
drafting
zoning,
but
then
ensuring
zoning
compliance,
and
this
is
done
through
our
zoning
administrator,
as
well
as
the
board
of
zoning
appeals.
C
The
board
of
zoning
appeals
is
one
of
the
three
quasi-judicial
boards
that
the
department,
staffs
and
quasi
judicial
boards
are,
just
as
it
says,
quasi-judicial
they're
a
bit
like
a
jury.
You
know
a
court,
they
just
make
actual
decisions
based
on
a
certain
set
of
standards
on
projects
and
can
deny
people's
can
deny
projects
or
the
request
of
certain
projects
or
appellants.
So
with
our
zoning
we
have
you
know.
C
Many
people
complain
that
our
zoning
is
out
of
date,
but
actually-
and
some
parts
are
very
out
of
date,
but
actually
some
we
are
always
bringing
forward
refinements
to
our
zoning,
and
some
of
our
zoning
is
actually
quite
recent.
The
waterfront
was
recently
rezoned.
College
town
is
fairly.
Recent
downtown
has
been
rezoned
multiple
times,
so,
in
the
absence
of
being
able
to
do
a
comprehensive
zoning
overhaul,
we
do
work
with
you
and
the
community
and
to
bring
forward
changes
to
the
zoning
that
that
again
help
meet
our
goals.
The
city's
goals.
C
We
also
do
preserve
and
protect
historic
resources
that
is
done
by
the
historic
preservation,
planner
brian
mccracken,
and
also
involves
another
quasi-judicial
board.
The
ithaca
landmark
preservation,
commission,
the
ilpc,
and
we
have
the
liaison
with
us
tonight
rob,
and
so
they
look
at
any.
C
We
have
eight
eight
districts
within
historic
districts
within
the
city,
over
25,
locally
designated
buildings
and
any
development
happening
within
or
changes
or
any
construction
happening
within
those
districts
has
to
go
to
the
ilpc
for
approval
that
it's
compatible
with
with
the
historic
character
of
of
the
area.
C
There
has
been
recently
in
this
past
year,
an
expansion
of
one
of
the
districts,
and
I
think
you
know
we
always
look
at
this.
As
you
know,
the
his
historic
preservation
is
really
also,
you
know
it's
maintaining
the
character
of
the
city,
but
also
there's
an
economic
benefit
having
a
city
that
feels
like
a
place
and
has
character-
and
brian
did
tell
me.
C
I
think
this
evening
that
we
have
within
all
the
districts
there's
like
664
historic
properties,
which
is
about
10
percent
of
our
building
stock,
is
within
a
historic
district,
so
that's
kind
of
interesting
development
approvals
and
projects.
So
all
the
construction
and
development
you're
seeing
going
on
around
you,
goes
through
a
long
process
with
staff
at
different
levels.
C
Sometimes
we
work
with
developers
for
years
before
they
bring
a
project
forward,
but
once
a
developer
has
a
project
that
they
want
to
bring
forward,
they
have
to
go
through
something
called
the
site
plan
approval
process,
so
that
is
done
by
our
third
quasi
judicial
board.
The
planning
and
development
board
and
the
planning
and
development
board
can
really
look
at
a
huge,
broad
set
of
criteria
in
development
projects.
You
know
if
a
project
is
allowed
by
zoning
and
it's
consistent
with
the
land
use.
C
They
can't
really
deny
it,
but
they
can
work
to
make
it
the
best
project.
It
can
possibly
be
for
the
city,
so
they
can
look
at.
You
know,
for
instance,
and
they
spend
a
lot
of
time
doing
this.
They
can
look
at
the
materials.
Are
the
is
the
quality
of
materials
sufficient?
Is
the
design
compatible
with
the
neighborhood
around
it?
Does
it
have
enough
provisions
for
bikes
and
pedestrians?
Does
it
have
enough
exterior
bike
parking?
Is
it
does
it
include
enough?
C
What
is
is
the
landscape?
You
know
sustainable
and
beautiful
and
provide
shade,
so
they
can.
They
can
take
kind
of
a
step
beyond
zoning,
to
look
at
how
the
how
these
projects
fit
into
the
community
and
try
to
make
them
the
best
they
can
be
for
the
community,
and
let
me
see
okay
and
then
we
also
do
you
know
and
oh
and
then,
after
you
know,
after
the
project
gets
its
approval
from
the
planning
board.
Often
we're
involved.
C
Our
department
is
involved
with
the
management
of
the
construction,
not
the
you
know,
inspections
but,
for
instance,
I'm
sitting
in
my
office
and
the
construction
site
sitting.
Next
to
me,
we
meet
weekly
about
that
and
with
the
construction
team,
and
you
know,
try
to
work
through
any
issues.
Where
is
the
you
know
we're
going
to
have
to
shut
down
this
pedestrian
access?
Where
are
we
going
to
put
it?
How
are
you
going
to
notify
people,
often
with
big
construction
projects?
C
We
also
do
special
product
projects
and
duties.
You
know
sometimes
something
will
come
up
or
there'll
be
a
project
that
is
needed
and
it's
not
specifically
fits
into
one
of
these
neat
categories
and
we
will
take
it
on
so
for
some
of
the
some
of
those
things
include.
C
We
help
with
the
capital
planning
projects,
so
the
capital
budget.
We
we
we
work
with
that
committee
to
develop
the
capital
budget
that
eventually
comes
to
council
for
approval.
We
are
involved
with
other
departments
with
a
facilities
master
plan
for
the
city.
We
manage
do
a
fair
amount
of
management
with
the
commons
and
we
again
we
often
work
with
other
departments
to
address
needs
in
the
city
and
work
together.
A
lot
of
coordination,
any
questions
about
any
of
this.
C
Yeah
and
then
I
I
we
also
have
within
our
department
the
ir
already
sits
within
our
department.
It's
that
it's
and
it's,
and
if
some
of
also
rob
aren't
you
the
ira,
ladies
and
yeah,
laura
was
before
yeah,
so
you
can
probably
talk
about
it
better
than
I
can,
but
the
ira
nels
bone
is
the
executive
director
and,
and
they
work
to
do
so.
C
Many
amazing
things
you
know
primarily
their
responsibility-
is
to
administer
the
city's
hud
entitlement
grants
which
they
do
through
a
whole
process
which
new
members
should
know
that
you'll
be
given
the
opportunity
to
review
their
plan
every
year
and
and
vote
on
it
actually,
but
they
do
other
other
kinds
of
work
too.
They're
heavily
involved
with
all
issues
to
do
with
housing,
homelessness.
C
They
prevent,
you
know,
provide
rental
assistance
to
people
and
they
help
a
lot
of
times.
Nails
helps
us
also
with
negotiations
and
land
transactions.
C
So
if
you,
you
know
our
work
program,
which
is
six
pages
at
this
point,
I've
listed.
What
I
think
at
this
point
are
our
top
priorities
and
if
you
look
through
the
work
program,
you'll
see
a
lot
more
detail
about
the
different
areas
that
we
are
working
in
plus.
On
page
five,
I've
listed
the
development
projects
that
are
currently
under
construction,
expected
construction
and
in
in
the
approval
process
and
in
development.
That
is
helpful
to
know,
I
think.
C
Sometimes
we
have
it's
just
we
have
very
brisk
development
climate
and
I
don't
see
it
slowing
down
anytime
soon,
just
like
building.
We
are
a
little
bit
short
staff,
we're
down
two
planners
right
now,
so
our
ability
to
do
some
of
the
planning
work
that
we
have.
You
know
really
done
a
lot
of
in
the
past,
we're
doing
it
as
we
can
we're
doing
the
downtown
plan,
but
you
know
drafting
legislation
and
what
plan
to
take
on
next.
C
I
think
we're
going
to
have
to
prioritize
a
little
bit
until
we
can
get
those
positions
filled
and
so
yeah.
I
was
really
looking
for
potentially
some
feedback
on
the
plan.
Specifically,
you
know,
I
know,
we've
heard
a
lot
about
short-term
rentals
and
interest
in
taking
that
on
and
also
cannabis
legislation
which
is
not
neither
of
which
are
on
the
top
priorities,
because
I
wasn't
sure
what
you
were
thinking
about
it
and-
and
you
know.
A
Short-Term
rentals
is
a
topic
that
this
committee
has
discussed
many
times
quite
a
bit,
and
it
definitely
needs
to
come
back
for
discussion
again.
I
don't
know
that
we've
got
a
time
frame
in
mind
for
that.
You've
lost
one
planner,
who
was
devoting
quite
a
bit
of
time
to
the
short-term
rental
work
so
that
that
has
to
be
put
on
the
back
burner.
A
Unfortunately,
for
the
present
time
in
terms
of
the
cannabis
legislation,
is
that
if
you
look
at
these
two
very
important
issue
that
will
come
before
before
council
before
this
committee,
short-term
rental
and
cannabis
legislation
lisa?
What's
your
sense
of
the
capacity
of
the
department
to
address
those
and
which
do
you
think
we
may
be
seeing
sooner
than
later,.
C
C
We
might
be
able
to
do
that
if
it's
of
interest
to
you,
the
cannabis
legislation,
tom
knight,
our
economic
deputy
director
of
economic
development,
has
been
kind
of
the
point
person
on
that,
and
you
know
he's
hearing
lots
of
chatter
about
it,
he's
keeping
track
of
the
state
law
and
so
around
mid-year.
C
A
Of
the
public
already
yeah
yeah
quite
a
lot
yes
cynthia
and
then
rob.
E
Thank
you.
I
recognize
the
staffing
shortages
and
and
the
real
need
to
to
triage
priorities
and
and
work
with
what
you
have
and
on
the
things
that
you
can
accomplish,
and
I
I
recognize
that
you
we
are
talking
about
putting
sort
of
to
the
back
burner
both
short-term
renters
legislation,
as
well
as
the
cannabis
legislation
you
had
mentioned
with
regards
to
cannabis
legislation.
Looking
at
what
we
have.
I've
always
felt
that
we
actually
have
within
our
code
legislation
that
does
actually
address
short-term
rentals.
E
It
does
specify
where
it
is
allowed
and
where
it
isn't
allowed.
What
we
don't
have
is
we
don't
have
either
we
haven't
been
enforcing
it.
Even
though
we're
fully
recognizing
that
they're,
you
know
it's
not
allowed
and
the
r1
and
r2
zone
at
all,
but
we
recognize
it's
everywhere,
and
so
is
this
something
that
we
could
utilize
an
intern
to
keep
track,
or
I
know
that
you
have
here
on
your
list.
E
But
right
now,
I
I
definitely
am
seeing
you
know
on
west
hill,
for
example,
one
of
the
benefits
of
going
door-to-door
again
and
again
for
for
all
of
the
reasons
we
have
to
when
we're
running
for
office
is
you
can
see
the
units
that
are
now
full-time,
short-term
rentals
and
they
are
being
taken
off
the
market
one
and
then
another
and
then
another
and
it's
growing
monthly.
E
Frankly,
so
I
recognize
the
shortage,
but
I
do
think
that
this
is
an
urgent
issue.
I
do
think
we
have
the
resources
we
already
need
in
terms
of
legislation.
E
We
just
need
to
to
take
a
look
at
it
and
enforce
it.
So
how
we
can
go
about
elevating
this
or
or
I
think,
is
really
important
one
way
or
another,
but
I
really
do
not
think
we
need
to
reinvent
the
wheel
here.
We
just
need
to
use
what
we
have.
A
Enforcement,
just
as
we
were
talking
about
earlier
with
coc,
for
example,
enforcement
is
a
challenge.
Hopefully
we
will
make
some
progress
on
hiring
new
staff
and
can
take
a
look
at
some
of
these.
So
there
will
be
some,
let's
hope,
issues
that
we
can
move
from
a
back
burner
to
a
mid,
if
not
a
front
burner
as
as
you're
suggesting
cynthia
take
a
look
at
what
we
have
in
legislation
and
look
at
where
we
can
work
toward
better
enforcement
of
what
we
do
have.
E
Yeah
right
I
mean
especially
just
and
I'm
going
to
editorialize
just
one
second,
you
know
if
we're
talking
about
housing
and
vacancies
and
the
inability
to
find
affordable
housing
every
unit
that
we
take
off
the
market
that
becomes
a
full-time
vrbo
is,
is
undermining
all
of
our
advancements
in
putting
in
you
know,
it
might
take
us
three
years
to
put
in
20
units
or
30
units,
and
I'm
I'm
seeing
like
15
on
west
hill
alone.
You
know
in
our
one
and
two
family
neighborhoods,
so
you
know,
I
think
we
need
to
address
this.
E
A
You
thank
you,
rob.
J
Yeah
thank
thank
you
lisa.
This
is
really
helpful.
So
I
appreciate
that
and
also
I'll
echo
cynthia's
comments.
You
know
I
I
recognize
the
staffing
challenges,
but
I
also
do
think
the
short-term
rental
issue
is
an
important
one.
So
one
of
the
questions
I
have
is
whether
or
not
there's
any
benefit
from
following
the
town's
lead
in
this.
Is
there
something
that
we
gain
from?
J
I
mean
in
a
lot
of
ways
we
probably
do
want
to
coordinate
with
them,
so
we
don't
end
up
with
something,
that's
correct
and
they
have-
and
I
don't
know
how
maybe
you've
already
been
following
it
pretty
closely
and
collaborating,
but
I
just
wondered:
if
there's
any
help
in
that
regard,
and
then
I
have
another
comment,
but
you
can
comment
about
that.
If
you
want.
C
J
In
regards
to
things
like
enforcement,
I
I
recognize,
that's
also
a
big
challenge
and
I-
and
I
hope
we
can
figure
this
out,
but
I
also
want
to
highlight
that
I
feel
like
we
can
help
ourselves
a
little
bit
with
you
know
better
public
information
campaigns
about
how
to
inform
the
public
about
what
things
are
appropriate,
what
or
not
and
then
once
we
get
them
educated
about
that.
We
need
to
have
a
good
intake
systems
for
how
to
report
things
and
that
might
help
make
some
of
the
enforcement
a
little
easier
or
more
efficient.
J
J
Is
it
appropriate
or
appropriateness,
appropriateness,
yeah
in
you
know,
in
in
making
revisions
to
their
house,
and
so
now
you
know
we
don't.
It
would
be
really
difficult
for
us
to
ask
them
to
uninstall
something
that
they
put
in
their
house.
At
the
same
time,
we
we
have
to
recognize
that
that
we
can't
really
just
allow
that
so
anyway,
more
and
better
information
campaigns
around
a
whole
bunch
of
different
things
would
help
the
city.
J
I
recognize
that's
not
really
only
in
your
area,
it's
a
city-wide
issue,
but
but
I
hope
we
can
find
some
common
pathways
there
too.
A
A
Anyone
else
I
I
would
also
just
like
to
thank
lisa
for
putting
together
this
very
helpful
information.
It's
it's
helpful
to
new
members
of
council,
it's
helpful
to
new
members
of
this
committee
and
it's
helpful
to
see
the
priorities
that
you
have
listed
in
your
2022
work
plan.
So
thank
you
very
useful
information.
Cynthia
did
you
have
another
point.
K
E
You
could
provide
a
little
information
on
page
one.
You
talked
about
a
you
list,
an
affordable
housing
inventory.
E
Can
you
talk
about
what
that
is
and
and
what
kind
of
work
you're
hoping
a
an
intern
might
be
able
to
do.
C
We,
you
know,
we
keep
great
track
of
the
housing
units
that
have
been
developed
and
but
we
don't
have
a
specific
handle
on
exactly
how
many
affordable
units
there
are
and
that's
for.
I
don't
think
it's
a
very
big
project.
I
think
we
just
need
an
inventory,
so
I
mean
it
would
take.
You
know,
there's
the
obvious
inventory
of
projects
that
are
affordable,
but
then
there
are
other
there's
other
housing.
That's
affordable
that
it's
harder
to
parse
out
like
how
many
of
those
are
there
and
where
are
they?
E
E
E
I
think
if
you
are
having
an
intern
that
would
be
sending
out
surveys
or
doing
some
baseline
information
having
a
diversity
of
information
on
our
rental
market
with
regards
to
rents
and
renewals
and
vacancy
would
inform
us
on
on
so
many
levels,
if
it's
possible
to
include
it
in
that
same
work.
A
Feedback.
Thank
you.
Thanks
yeah,
you
mentioned
individual
property
owners
landlords.
We
we
do
have
the
benefit
of
a
number
of
very
good
non-profit
housing
organizations
in
our
community
that
provide
and
are
currently
building
a
number
of
new
affordable
units
both
for
rental
and
for
house
and
for
ownership
home
ownership.
A
It
would
be
great
if
we
could
see
an
increase
in
the
affordable
home
ownership
market
as
well
our
well.
We
all
know
that
our
percentage
of
renters
in
the
city
hovers
around
74
if
we
could
grow
home
ownership,
that
would
be
wonderful
as
well
more
topics
for
future
discussion.
I'm
sure,
okay!
Well,
thank
you
again
lisa.
This
is
very
useful
information.
A
Let's
turn
to
the
approval
of
our
april
2021
and
december
2021
minutes
cynthia.
I
saw
that
you
had
sent
in
some
edits.
I
wonder
if
someone
wants
to
move
to
approve
both
of
these
sets
of
minutes
together.
D
A
Okay,
so
that
that
passes,
and
thank
you
to
debbie
for
for
providing
those
is
there
any
other
business
before
the
committee
tonight.
