Hi.
4:32:54
My name is Meryl Bradbart.
4:32:56
I'm a mother and a homeowner in Windsor Terrace, and I'm here to voice my strong support for the rezoning.
4:33:02
I don't wanna rehash too much of what's already been said.
4:33:05
Many of the points I was prepared to share have already been said.
4:33:08
But I do wanna say that as we all know, our city faces a dire housing shortage, and this project represents an opportunity to create entirely new homes where there aren't any right now without displacing existing residents.
4:33:20
Instead of worrying about who might be driven out, which won't happen here, we should focus on the people we can drive into Windsor Terrace, young families, essential workers, and neighbors who will enrich our community and keep it thriving.
4:33:33
More housing means a stronger, more inclusive Windsor Terrace.
4:33:37
So please go in support of this rezoning.
4:33:40
Thank you.
