Council Member Kristy Marmorato expresses support for Montefiore Medical Center's development plans while raising concerns about parking in the area. The discussion focuses on potential solutions to accommodate parking needs for patients and staff.

• The council member expresses excitement about Montefiore's plans to build in the community, citing the need for improved hospital infrastructure. • Parking concerns are raised, particularly in the area near the 'grass green glass building' at the entrance to the medical park. • Montefiore representatives confirm they will consider incorporating parking within their new structures, particularly in the area behind the glass building where they plan to develop a cancer center. • The medical center has a 99-year lease agreement with Jacoby for a large parking lot on East Chester Road, which will remain as parking for the foreseeable future. • Montefiore commits to accommodating parking needs for faculty and patients in their future developments, though they may not provide parking for the general population.
