Why we should be more focused on home ownership than rentals. We have
solutions. We look at what some other cities are doing to help the
homeless that we could easily do in Rochester.

The next City Council meeting is Tue, Feb 20th. Speak to Council is at
6:30pm. Call 311 to get on the list to speak. The more things change
the more they stay the same with our City government. We also discuss
the state of our local minor league sports teams and how we can keep
them solvent.

We update the Cobbs Hill Development project as well as Rochester's
point system. It's all ridiculous. With the bad news about downtown,
we look at Amazon's Hunger Game to improve our city.

Why hasn't the brownfield cleanup in the PLEX neighborhood taken place
yet? Ask ExxonMobil. How can we help one of the poorest sections of
the City? Then, we win by losing. Amazon is NOT coming to Rochester.

Housing is a human right. The problem of Southview Towers is an
indication that we need to look at housing differently. We also look at
the Silvon Simmons situation in terms of what RPD does and how our
local judicial system works.
