My name is Jeffrey Glave.
1:34:46
I've been a resident of Yorkville for 45 years.
1:34:50
I'm listening to the developer regurgitate the exact same presentation that they gave to Community Board 8.
1:34:59
Despite all the concerns raised by Community Board 8, I didn't hear any one of these concerns being given concrete answers in this presentation.
1:35:10
The exact same words for use and the concerns about light and air, height, density, green space parking, none of them had been given more than the slightest suggestion that they're being talked about.
1:35:26
And I can't believe they're coming to the city council to seek approval with these rapid promises of nothing but profit for themselves at the neighborhood expense.

Thank you.
