Council Member Justin Brannan proposes a unified approach between the City Council and the administration to push for property tax reform in Albany. Commissioner Preston Niblack agrees with this strategy.
- Brannan suggests that a unified front from the Council and administration could be more effective in achieving reform in Albany.
- He notes that the next year might be a good opportunity for reform as it's not an election year for state legislators.
- Commissioner Niblack enthusiastically agrees, stating that a joint effort would likely see progress in a way that hasn't been achieved in the past.

Thank you, councilman.
3:46:47
Yeah.
3:46:47
Commissioner, I mean, obviously, you and I have spoken about this a 1000000 times.
3:46:50
But I think it would it would it would be powerful and effective if we had, the council and the administration, unified and getting and going up to Albany and really getting this done the way we've been talking about doing it forever.
3:47:05
I know we say that every year and then other priorities come up.
3:47:08
But, I think it might be easier for Albany if it's not an election year for them next year.
3:47:14
But, I I think we know what needs to be done.
3:47:17
I think we should join hands and try to get up there and do it.
Preston Niblack
3:47:20
I I a 100% agree.
3:47:21
You know, we if we go to Albany, I think, together as an administration and a council, we will see, you know, progress this year in a way that we haven't been able to achieve, in the past.
Justin Brannan
