  1. Congratulations and welcome. 2 points.
    1. I don’t understand why there is a plan to redevelop the mall when companies like Macy’s closing 150 middle volume priced stores . Is there a study that suggests all these apartments being built are going to house store front shoppers rather than mail order humans?
    2. Why would the city plan a new multi-million dollar walkway to the new jail. wouldn’t it be better served developing the corridor from washington street down Shelby to fountain square? this would launch development down Shelby as it did with Fountain Square and Mass Ave.

  2. Get the height restrictions lifted for the whole county! Especially Downtown and the surrounding areas and many other areas of the city need investing in, plenty of different areas need housing, shopping, restaurants, entertainment , hotels,Jobs and everything else so let’s get moving!!!
