St. Ann's is a Buffalo treasure that is deserving of the recognition and protection that local landmark designation provides. Constructed in 1886, the towering Neo- Gothic church has been a cultural and community landmark for the East Side neighborhood for 127 years. Deeply rooted in European building tradition, the imposing scale of the structure is highlighted by two magnificent spires which once stood 200 feet high. The stunning exterior of St. Ann's is only rivaled by the ornate and elaborate interior of the church. Within the 7 foot -thick stonewalls, the soaring nave and transept are home to hundreds of historic and religious artifacts, many from 19th Century Germany, including thirty -five stunning stained glass windows that line the interior space. In addition to the primary church building, St Ann's campus consists of a school, a rectory, and a convent - each with its own historic detail, significance and charm. PBN is currently working with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo to establish an appropriate reuse for the entire St. Ann's campus, preserving the buildings and allowing the campus to continue to serve the people of the Buffalo Niagara region. Designation as a local landmark as requested in St. Ann's application is essential in protecting this historic structure's integrity and preserving its eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places and all associated tax credits incentives. PBN is currently working with the New York State Historic Preservation Office to establish a formal declaration of eligibility, which will attract development interest to save and rededicate the campus.

This is a major city uitersection, traversed by 25,000 cars every day, and it is the evttanceway to the Delaware. and Univer.,it7i fl.stricts. Thcre has leers `_rniftcant investment in this area by our business, Cirninelli Development, M atu tion, and Elbers I andscapi g. Most ttnportantly to us, however, is the recent increase in crime and vandalism on and around tliis comer. Over the past two years, we have been raving increased problems dealing with teenagers travelling to and from Bennett High School and the public pool in Shoshone Park. We have had cases of shoplifting, vandalism, and most recently a break -in and robbery over the July 4` holiday. Our business employs 15 -18 people and serves over 100 piano students, teachers, and performers every week. Many of our customers come to us from the suburbs and are not used to the hazards of urban areas and feel threatened by the city; if the situation: on - j:. comer gets much worse, we are in dirre peril. of losing many of these custoters and students. It is our hope that a camera on our corner would make theta feel safer and hopefully reduce the incidence of crime in the area. We are currently iz1 the process of upgrading our security system and fortifying our facility, and we feel that this as well as the city's camera will alleviate the situation so we won't be forced to leave our location for someplace without these issues. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at the number listed above. Thank you, ( r Joseph Illos ,- ,A.

The Facility will replace a recently decommissioned 96' site at Deaconess Hospital on Humboldt Parkway. Currently, a temporary 86' cell tower on wheels located on property owned by the Community Action Organization of Erie County, Inc. ( "CAO ") is providing coverage until a permanent location can be constructed. Following the presentation of concerns by CAO at the Planning Board meeting on May 21, 2013, the Planning Board tabled the matter and T- Mobile met with CAO to discuss their concerns. Following discussion with CAO and the St. Martin de Porres Church ( "Church "), T- Mobile submitted on July 15, 2013 a supplement to its Application including revised Site Plans reflecting an improved proposed location for the Facility on the Church property. At the July 16, 2013, meeting of the Planning Board, its members ATTORN HYS AT LAW 3400 H5BC CENTER BUFFALO, NY 14203.2887 PHONE 716 847 8400 FAX 718 9352 6100 HUFFALo ALBANY CHAUTAUQUA GARDEN CITY NEWYORK ROCHESTER WWW. PHI LLI PSLYTLE.COM LIIJ morn ® Legislation Committee September 19, 2013 Page 2 - -' noted the greatly improved quality of the Site. However, the matter was tabled so that CAO could appear before the Planning Board, as CAO was not present at the meeting on July 16, 2013. At the next (July 30, 2013) meeting of the Planning Board, CAO again was not present, and the Planning Board issued a Negative Declaration pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act, granted Site PIan Approval for the AppIication as presented, and recommended approval of the Application to the Common Council. See Exhibit B. On July 30, 2013, T- Mobile also met with the Legislation Committee, seeking a recommendation in favor of the RUP and a referral back to the Common Council. (The Common Council having referred the RUP review to the Legislation Committee on May 14, 2013.) At this July 30, 2013 meeting, the Legislation Committee referred the Application back to the Common Council. See Exhibit C. On August 28, 2013, Mr, Michael Risman, an attorney for CAO, submitted a letter to the Common Council on CAO's behalf issuing a request that the Common Council deny T- Mobile's request for an RUP ( "CAO Letter "). See Exhibit A. On September 3, 2013, the matter was sent back to the Legislation Committee by the Common Council for the Legislation Committee's consideration of the CAO Letter. See Exhibit C. As a result of the foregoing, this letter seeks to address and respond to the CAO Letter and to request that the Legislation Committee again refer the Application back to the Common Council and recommend approval of the RUP to the Common Council so that T- Mobile may move forward with construction of its Facility and the provision of service to its customers.

Google Earth Photograph of Church and CAO Parcels Exhibit K: Propagation Maps Exhibit L: Alternatives Analysis Exhibit M: Search Ring A. Response to CAO Submittal dated Auggst 28 2013 The CAO Letter detailed several reasons why CAO felt the Common Council should refer the matter for further review. However, the CAO Letter contains several inaccurate statements which require a response and clarification. CAD Attendance at Planning Board Meetings The CAO Letter states that due to a "miscommunication," CAO did not appear at the July 30, 2013 meeting of the Planning Board to discuss the revised Site. This statement is inaccurate, as CAO had ample opportunity to attend a Planning Board meeting on July 30, 2013 and respond to the revised Application. In fact, the revised Application, developed and based upon a meeting with CAO and its attorneys to discuss GAO's concerns, and several discussions with the Church, was originally discussed at the July 16, 2013 meeting of the Planning Board. T- Mobile provided CAO with the revised site plans in advance of the July 16, 2013 meeting on July 1, 2013, via an email to Richard Dopkins, an attorney representing CAO. T- Mobile included with the revised Site Plans an explanation of the additional screening measures. We then placed several calls and emailed Mr. Dopkins to follow up with CAO on the revised plans. Adam Walters, a Phillips Lytle attorney, was able to speak with Mr. Dopkins on July 15, 2013, at which time Mr. Dopkins stated that CAO was not happy with the proposed resolution and that CAO was "looking at the revenue" due to issues related to the carrying cost of obtaining the old Deaconess site for its development. Mr. Walters asked Mr. Dopkins whether CAO would appear in opposition to the revised Application at the Planning Board and Common Council meetings. Mr. Dopkins stated that it was "not my style to interfere but that will not make my client happy." Just prior to the Planning Board meeting on July 16, 2013, Mr. Walters emailed Mr. Dopkins to confirm our Legislation Committee Page 4 September 19, 2013 understanding that CAO would neither endorse nor support the Application. CAO did not attend the July 16, 2013 meeting of the Planning Board, at which time the Planning Board tabled the matter so that CAO may have an opportunity to appear at the next meeting of the Planning Board on July 30, 2013. At the July 16, 2013 meeting, we stated that it was T- Mobile's understanding that CAO would not actively oppose the Application. Mr. Dopkins responded to Mr. Walters' email request for clarification by stating that "CAO opposes the Application. What I said is that we would .not appear." T- Mobile's understanding at the time of the July 16, 2013 meeting was that the CAO would not appear to oppose the Application. CAO did not appear at the July 30th Planning Board Meeting. Location of Site and Related Impacts The CAO Letter also states that CAO "vehemently opposes the application because of the damage it will do to the neighborhood aesthetics and the harm to the quality of the revitalization underway." We would like to point out, as did Adam Perry, another attorney for CAO, at the May 21, 2013 meeting of the Planning Board, that CAO originally introduced T- Mobile to the Church when the tower location was still being determined to "try to help a business locate a cell tower ". However, CAO is now stating that a cell tower would be inappropriate on a property that they originally suggested. Further, based upon the Planning Board's and CAO's initial concerns, and after several discussions with the Church, T- Mobile took several measures to develop a proposed Site that would address all concerns and preserve the aesthetics of the Site and the community. This is demonstrated in the Site Plans attached as Exhibit D. The proposed Site is located behind a heavily vegetated area to the north and west of the proposed monopole. To the south, there is currently a berm and several apple trees. This existing screening can be seen in Exhibits F and G. To the east of the proposed monopole, T- Mobile has proposed planting two 10' maple trees and arborvitae to further screen the base from Northampton Street. In addition, T- Mobile has proposed planting additional apple trees along the berm to further screen the south side of the base. Although the CAO Letter refers to T- Mobile's landscaping plans as "alleged ", the Legislation Committee Page 5 September 19, 2013 plans -can be seen on Pages C1 and C2 of the Detailed Site PIans in Exhibit D, and T- Mobile would be bound by its Site Plan Approval by the. Planning Board to follow through with implementing the screening. T- Mobile has taken several steps to ensure the impact on the community is reduced and that the monopole is heavily screened from GAO's proposed development and Northampton Street. This is demonstrated in Exhibits G and H which show the view from both the former Deaconess Site and Northampton Street looking at the proposed Site. The Planning Board was very impressed with the more fulsome screening of the revised Site and stated so at its July 16, 2013 meeting. The CAO Letter states that T- Mobile intends to install an "oversized 50 foot by 50 foot concrete pad." CAO may have been trying to reference the size of the entire equipment compound, rather than the smaller concrete pad, however, in response to earlier concerns noted by CAO, when T Mobile revised its Site Plans and relocated the proposed tower on the Church property, it greatly reduced the size of the equipment compound to further diminish any aesthetic impacts, and the compound is no longer this size. The equipment compound has been reduced approximately 30% from its original size. See Exhibit D. The CAO Letter notes that CAO is working with Kaleida Health and the UB School of Architecture and Planning to construct affordable housing across the street at the site of the former Deaconess Hospital. The CAO Letter states that the site plan is being considered for a number of planning design awards. T- Mobile understands the importance of the CAO project at the former Deaconess Hospital site to the community, and the relocated Site for T- Mobile's project reflects that concern. T- Mobile has found a location which provides significant screening of both the monopole and equipment compound. However, despite the fact that CAO has noted the proposed development of the Deaconess site, and T- Mobile has taken significant steps to ensure the screening of the tower and equipment compound, CAO is proposing, as an alternative, a site which is directly across the street from the Deaconess site that CAO proposes to develop and is completely unscreened. See Exhibits E and I. While the CAO Letter claims that T- Legislation Committee Page 6 September 19, 2013 Mobile's proposed location is "directly across from" the Deaconess site, as seen in Exhibits H and J, the T- Mobile Iocation is tucked away in a heavily vegetated area and diagonal from the Deaconess site, behind the Church, while the CAO proposed location is directly across from the Deaconess site. See Exhibit Z and J. The sight lines of any proposed development of the Deaconess site are directly aligned with the proposed CAO location, in contrast to a diagonal alignment with a tower at the proposed Site behind the Church. Assuming a development of the Deaconess site includes viewsheds directly towards Northampton Street, the CAO proposed location is clearly more intrusive to the viewshed from the Deaconess site, as compared to the T- Mobile proposed Site. In fact, the height of the Church itself also helps screen the monopole from the Deaconess property. See Exhibit H. Note that while the Google Earth map shows trees behind the proposed CAO location, and the CAO Letter states that the CAO property is "shielded on three sides by structures, fences and trees ", at least one of these large trees would need to be removed in order to construct an equipment compound on the CAO property according to T- Mobile's site acquisition consultants that originally reviewed the CAO location. Further, the "structures" that the CAO Letter references are residential. See Exhibits E and J. The CAO Letter explains at length why a cell tower is not appropriate in this area, and how under the Code the City must take into account the "impact of the development on adjacent properties" and then suggests it be located on CAO property, in the same area, on a parcel lacking screening and fully visible from Northampton Street, and in the direct viewshed of a number of residential properties. Alternatives Analysis The CAO Letter notes that the Code discourages the locating of cell towers within residential zones. The CAO Letter also provides that the Code encourages colocation. While T- Mobile would not disagree with either statement, T- Mobile's Application has already discussed and addressed both points. T- Mobile is seeking to replace an important site that was decommissioned due to the demolition of Deaconess Hospital. The T- Mobile network has been built out around this site, so the search ring, as seen in Exhibit M, is limited due to this build out, which restricts T- Mobile to a mainly residential area. See the Site Selection Zoning Analysis in Exhibit L. Further, as seen Legislation Committee Page 7 September 19, 2013 in Exhibit L, despite the fact that the CAO Letter states that there is "no evidence that T- Mobile has sufficiently explored other site options," T- Mobile sought out several different collocation possibilities, based upon the search ring, none of which were feasible. T- Mobile was unable to come to lease terms with the City for East High School at 794 Northampton, as the Buffalo Public Schools were not interested in facilitating a timely lease commitment. T- Mobile also explored the possibility of locating on a Lamar billboard at 571 Best Street, but Lamar was not interested. T- Mobile also looked into locating on the Buffalo Museum of Science, but the fact that the structure is on the National Historic Registry makes it very difficult to locate there. T- Mobile also contacted the God City Housing_ Development and Belmont Management Company at 175 Pershing Street, but Belmont was not interested in leasing space because the commercial revenue would interfere with federal HUD funding. T- Mobile finally evaluated a site at 345 East Ferry, but the location was 0.5 miles away from the decommissioned site and was significantly lower in elevation, and therefore would not meet coverage objectives. T- Mobile's currently proposed site is the least intrusive site available to meet the gap in coverage that is currently being addressed by a temporary cell tower on wheels, located on CAD's property. B. Effective Prohibition of Service Section 332(c)(7)(B)(i)(II) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 ( "TCA ") provides that the regulation of the placement, construction and modification of personal wireless service facilities by any State or local government "shall not prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services." The applicable substantive standards to be applied by a municipality in evaluating cell site applications are derived from the established principles of local and state zoning laws. Cellular Tel. Co. v. Town of Oyster BaX, 166 F.3d 490,494 (2d Cir.1999). These standards "have been interpreted in the context of zoning decisions for telecommunications facilities to require that a telecommunications provider that is seeking a variance for a proposed facility need only establish (1) that there are gaps in service, (2) that the location of the proposed facility will remedy those gaps and (3) that the facility presents a minimal intrusion on the community." New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC v. Town of Fenton, 843 F.Supp.2d 236,245 (N.D.N.Y. 2012); New York SMSA Ltd. Partnership V. Village of Floral Park Bd. n i f. :. Legislation Committee Page 8 September 19, 2013 of Trustees, 812 F.Supp.2d 143,154 (E.D.N.Y.2011) ( uq oting Site Acquisitions, Inc. v. Town of New Scotland 2 A.D.3d 1135,1137, 770 N.Y.S.2d 157,160 (3d Dep't 2003) and citing Omnipoint Commc'ns, Inc. v. City of White Plains, 430 F.3d 529, 535 (2d Cir.2005)). As discussed above and demonstrated in Exhibit K, T- Mobile has clearly identified a gap in coverage as a result of the demolition of the Deaconess Hospital and the resultant decommissioning of T- Mobile's site at that location. T- Mobile's network has been built out around this site, therefore, the replacement tower must be similarly situated, which restricts the search ring to the residential area. See Exhibit M. The propagation maps in Exhibit K demonstrate both the gap in service and the remedy of the gap with the proposed location of the new tower on the Church property. CAO says nothing about the community's loss of vital services without this monopole, especially with respect to the vital public health and safety services that cellular phones are used for, such as 911 calls and emergency response coordination. Today's wireless telecommunications service is not only being relied on by the general public for safety, but also by emergency service professionals such as police, fire and rescue personnel. In fact, T- Mobile and other communications carriers are currently required by the FCC to make their systems compatible with enhanced -9 -1 -1 ( "E911 ") functionality. This functionality permits public answering safety points to locate mobile calls using various technologies. The search ring and propagation maps clearly demonstrate what services are needed and where they are needed, for both indoor and outdoor use. The cell tower on wheels is only a temporary solution to deal with this demand for service and public safety purposes. In addition, the completion of the CAO project at the Deaconess site will only increase the demand for these vital services. T- Mobile recognizes the importance of providing consistent, reliable and state -of- the -art telecommunications services for this area of the community and its residents. The proposed T- Mobile tower at the Church property will address these vital needs. Further, the alternatives analysis detailed in Exhibit L and discussed above demonstrates that no other suitable options were available, In addition, the Site Plan and substantial landscaping plan found in Exhibit D and the photographs of both the CAO property in Exhibits E and I and the proposed T- Mobile Site in Exhibits F, G and Legislation Committee Page 9 September 19, 2013 H indicate that the proposed location is a minimal intrusion on the community, and in fact, the least visually intrusive location available to meet T- Mobile's coverage needs. As seen in the photos in Exhibits H and I and the Google Earth Map in Exhibit J, the proposed CAO location would have a significantly greater impact on the viewshed of any CAO development on the Deaconess site. Residents looking out windows on the Deaconess site would not have a direct view of the monopole on the 'I -Mobile Site, as the Site is diagonally across from Deaconess, with the Church in the line of sight, whereas the same residents would have a clear view of a tower on CAO's proposed location. The Common Council must take the above - referenced telecommunications service standards into account in its review of T- Mobile's Application for an RUP. T- Mobile has fully demonstrated and satisfied these standards. Accordingly, any denial of the Application would be deemed an unlawful effective prohibition of personal wireless service, under Section 332(c)(7)(B)(i)(II) of the TCA. Therefore, the Common Council should approve T- Mobile's Application. Conclusion T- Mobile understands the concerns of CAO and has made several efforts to discuss the Application and compromise on the location for the good of CAO and the community as a whole. However, even after T- Mobile's provision of a revised Site with significant screening, CAO is still proposing a location on its property that is much more visually intrusive on its Deaconess property and the community, while simultaneously arguing a tower does not belong in the area despite the vital service needed. CAO's concerns are based on issues regarding the loss of lease revenue, which are not the purview of the Common Council and not relevant to its review of the Application. Therefore, we respectfully request that the Legislation Committee recognize the suitability of the Church Site, recommend approval of the Application to the Common Council, and once again refer the Application back to the Common Council. We look forward to appearing at the September 24 meeting of the Legislation Committee to discuss these issues in person. hf Legislation Committee Page 10 Very truly yours, Phillips Lytle LLP ley";.� Kimberly R.

My name is Kevin Keenan; I am president of Keenan Communications Group, and serve as communications counsel to the Diocese of Buffalo. I am here at the request of Bishop Richard J. Malone, bishop of Buffalo. Joining me, and able to answer any technical questions you may have are: • Michael Sullivan, director of Buildings and Properties for the diocese Sister Regina Murphy, director of Research and Planning for the diocese • Joseph Stoeckl, diocesan legal counsel As you know, Bishop Malone issued a decree on August 19, 2013, reducing St. Ann church to what is known as "profane use," which means the church will no longer be used for divine worship. At the same time, the bishop announced the difficult decision to raze the building due to severe interior and exterior deterioration. I refer you to the Structural Evaluation and Repair Alternatives report for St. Ann Roman Catholic Church which was submitted to the Council Clerk on September 16. Re- construction costs are estimated at between $8 million and $12 million, and that is a conservative figure. It is money the Diocese of Buffalo and SS. Columba- Brigid Parish do not have. For background, St. Ann parish merged into SS. Columba - Brigid in 2007, and SS. Columba- Brigid is now responsible for the St. Ann complex. The diocese has been assisting the parish in paying for costs associated with upkeep of St. Ann's. 3L9 In a letter to parishioners, Bishop Malone said, "It is always a sad day when we have to acknowledge that a church can no longer be used, and sadder still when the church must be razed. But St. Ann Church, and the parish life that has thrived there for more than 150 years, has made its mark on the history of Catholicism in Western New York, and more importantly, on the lives of so many who have worshipped there. That is to be remembered and celebrated now and into the future." Following the announcement, the diocese was contacted by Tom Yotts, president of Preservation Buffalo Niagara, who asked if the diocese would be willing to have a dialogue with PBN to see if a deal could be brokered for the sale of the St. Ann's complex. Bishop Malone agreed to the proposal and we have had several productive conversations with PBN. At this time, PBN is in conversation with at least two groups who have expressed an interest in purchasing the complex, and the diocese is in the process of arranging tours of the property. Separately, the diocese is in dialogue with another entity that is also seriously interested in purchasing the property. When Bishop Malone issued the decree to raze the building, the St. Ann Revitalization Committee filed an appeal with the Congregation for the Clergy, an office at the Vatican. While the appeal is being considered, the diocese is not permitted to raze or sell the church. It should be noted that the order from the Vatican was issued before the Congregation received detailed information from the diocese on the bishop's decree and the reasons behind the decision. Even if the diocese receives an acceptable purchase offer, we will not be able to execute any contract unless the appeal is either denied or withdrawn. It is Bishop Malone's hope that in order to secure the future of the St. Ann's complex, the appeal will be dropped. If that does not happen, there is no way to predict how long the Vatican appeal could take -- it could be years — and in the meantime, the condition of the church building will further deteriorate. 1� Time is off the essence. Mothballing St. Ann's is not an option, and Bishop Malone has been clear on numerous occasions that the church will not re -open as a Catholic worship site. The diocese needs to be able to sell the complex as soon as possible, to a buyer who has the means to stabilize the church building and then make the necessary investment in the entire complex that will benefit the Broadway neighborhood for decades to come. We continue to maintain that landmarking of churches violates the free exercise and excessive entanglement provisions of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights of the New York State Constitution. Landmarking violates the New York State Religious Corporations Law, which place total control over the use and disposition of Roman Catholic Churches owned by religious corporations (such as St. Ann's) in the hands of the Bishop. In the case of St. Ann's, the Diocese of Buffalo is working with preservationists and other potentially credible interested parties for the reuse of St. Ann's. At this point, landmarking is premature and may very well hinder that process. The Diocese has pledged not to demolish St. Ann's pending dismissal or withdrawal of the appeal pending at the Vatican and would be prohibited from doing so under Canon Law while that appeal is pending. Thank you for allowing me this time. We are happy to entertain any questions you may have. REFERRED TO THE C O N LEGISLA 000 4 Zbe 3suffato Common Council MICHAEL J.

Therefore, we are hoping for only Thursdays to no disturb the other bars making money from their older crowds on weekends. We were the only bar through the comingling era to not have an SLA violation, as we have always abided by NYS Law. We want to work with the city, its inhabitants, and all patrons to create a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for a large part of the Buffalo population.

My Administration is working to ensuteAmeriea's young people have educational opportunities worthy of their po €entiat, and I appreciate hearing fro m you, There is no stronge.rfoundation for success than a great education. We trust provide our children with the world -class education they need to succeed and our Nation needs to compete in the global economy. Ourclasstoonis should be places of high expectations and success, where al) students zreoive an education that prepares them for higher teaming and high- demand cancers in our fast - changing economy, Etluipping young Americans with the tools forsuccess must start at the earliest possible age. Today ,fewerthan 3 in 10 4r year -olds are enrolled in a high- quality preschool program —and for many cltl ldren, this lack of access to preschool can leave a shadow that lasts a1ifetime. That is why I have proposed working with states to make high - quality preschool available to every child in America, Every dollar we invest in early childhood, education can save more than seven dollars later on —by boosting graduation rates. reducing teen piegnancy,and. reducing crime. In states that make ita priority to educate Out YOU ngest children, students grow up more likely to read and do math at their grade level, graduate high school, hold a job, and form stable families of their own. 36 w've must do what works and make sure none of our children start the race of life behind. My Adm6iistration continues to make historic investments to strengthen our public education system, including our Race to the Top program ---a competition that spurred states to make comprehensive reforms of theirpublic school systems to prepare all students for coil ege and career. Race to the Top focuses on what is best for our students by engaging state and local leaders and educators in adopting betterstandards that prepare students forcoilege and career,turning around our lowest- perfarining schools, developing and rewarding effective teachers and leaders, and implementing meaningful assessments to truck the progress of our students. Building on this ambitious program, I announced knew initiative to provide high school students with challenging and relevant academic and career - related learning experiences that prepare them for success in higher education and the workforce. With funding I have proposed in my FY2014 budget, eve will rewvard schools that redesign teaching and learning in high schools to foster new partnerships w %itlt colleges and employers and strengthen classes that focus on science,. technotogy.engineering,and math --the skills students need to thrive in a high -tech world To further reshape our educational system, we also need to reform the No Child Left Behind Act- -a law that has helped advance accountability and expose disparities in educational opportunities and outcomes, but has labeled too many schools as failing and imposed too many unworkable remedies. Because America's students cannot afford to wait any IongerforCongress to act to fix No Child Left Behind my Administration launched a new Federal-State partnership to provide states with flexibility to advance needed educational reforms in exchange for a commitment to raise standards for all students, improve accountability for low- performing schools, and help teachers and school leaders become more effective. A majority ofstates has now been granted flexibility 6om No Child LeftBehind,aad while states are required to maintain afocus on underserved students,they can move away from one -size- fits -all interventions and mandates to advance focally tailored solutions to do what is best for students. The future. of America's economic strength is deter rrined each day in classrooins across our Nation. To remain a global leader, we must cultivate a learning environment with an effective teacher in every classroom and an effective principal in every school. Supporting a strong teaching workforce and inspiring school leadership is a top priority for nay Administration. In these chatlenging fi nancial times forstate and local budgets, we have worked to help schools keep teachers in the classroom, preserve or extend the regularsehool day and year, and maintain important afterschool activities. My Administration has also putforwvard robust plans to strengthen and transform the teaching ptrrfessioi through a series of investments to help states and districts pursue bold lefonns at every stage of the profession. This includes attracting top -tier talent and preparing educators forsuccess, creating career ladders with opportunities foradvancoment and competitive eompensatior, providing meaningful evaluation and support for the development of teachers and principals, and getting the best educators into the classrooms of the students who need there most, .Across ourcountry.young people are dreaming of theirfutures and of the ideas that will chart the course of our unwritten history. A word -class cdacation system will equip our Nation to advance ecouonic growth,encouiage new investment and hiring, spark innovation, and ensure the success of the middle class.

The law is already making health coverage stronger for the majority of Americans who already have it. More than eight out of ten Americans have already begun to experience the benefits of the Affordable Care Act with better coverage, including free wellness and prevention care like mammograms and cancer screenings. Three million kids who didn't have coverage before now can stay on their parents' plans until age 26. But for the nearly two in ten Americans without health insurance, there will be a new easy way to get affordable coverage. Beginning October I a new Health Insurance Marketplace will open in every state, giving Americans a whole new way to shop for health insurance. For the first time in the history of the private insurance market, consumers in every state will be able to go online to one place to check out their coverage options, get accurate information in easy -to- understand language, and make apples -to- apples comparisons of plans before they make their decision. The Health Insurance Marketplace will offer Americans lower costs on their monthly premiums — making more affordable coverage a new reality for many hard working Americans and their families. All plans will be required to cover a comprehensive set of benefits, including physician visits, preventive care, hospital stays, and prescriptions. Discrimination based on gender or pre- existing conditions will be banned. And many families and small businesses will qualify for a break on their monthly premiums. The Marketplace will be available on HealthCare.gov and CuidadoDeSalud, ov starting on October I' Right now, families and small business owners can visit these websites to start getting ready for open enrollment. A toll -free call center is also available to help answer questions 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Whether consumers seek out help through the call center, through the website's live chat feature, or through trained professionals who will be working in their communities, they'll have access to support that is personal, unaffiliated with the insurance industry —and available to help in more than 150 languages. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and partners across the country have already taken important steps to start delivering on the promise of expanding access to quality, affordable health coverage for millions of Americans by ramping up pre - enrollment efforts and launching a new set of educational tools that will help Americans learn about their new options and get signed up for coverage. 2 ERMEM Health Insurance Marketplace Early data shows that the Marketplace will give many consumers greater choice. In a majority of states today, for example, a single insurer covers more than half of all individuals enrolled in the private market—but when the Marketplaces open up this fall, consumers will have an average of at least 15 qualified health plans to choose from. Another study found that by making health insurance more affordable and ending discrimination against pre - existing conditions, the law will enable up to 1.5 million more Americans to go into business for themselves. The promise of the Affordable Care Act is within our grasp. Over the summer, community health centers and other organizations will receive funding to help consumers navigate the new Marketplace, and leaders from across the country are stepping up to help Americans learn about their new options and get signed up for coverage. Working together, we are on our way to a healthier America with better health insurance options and better health outcomes for the American people. 3 MUM Health Insurance Marketplace Sample Outreach and Enrollment Plan Open enrollment in the Health Insurance Marketplace begins on October I5t and will run through March 31 The number of people and small businesses that benefit from the Marketplace will ultimately be determined by each community's efforts to educate people and get them to sign up. As trusted leaders in your communities, you are essential to the success of Marketplace enrollment efforts. By reaching out now to build coalitions and educate stakeholders, you will lay the groundwork for enrolling people in the Marketplace starting on October I5t Many of you are already engaged in conversations about the Affordable Care Act. Over the next few months, elected officials across the country can take these efforts to the next Level. We are committed to working together and supporting your efforts, and want to hear what works best in your community. Ways You Can Get Involved EDUCATE 1.

Discrimination based on gender or pre - existing conditions will be banned. And many families and small businesses will qualify for a break on their monthly premiums. • And only by shopping at the Marketplace will Americans be able to get lower costs on their monthly premiums — making more affordable coverage a new reality for many hard working Americans and their families. • First, we've launched the new and improved IHealthCare.gov which will be the Marketplace's online home starting in October. For Spanish speaking consumers, CuidadoDeSaludd.gov has also been updated in preparation for the Marketplace. 7 MUM Health Insurance Marketplace • Right now, families and small business owners can visit HealthCare.gov to start getting ready for open enrollment on October 1 st. And over the summer, the site will continue to add new functions that will allow consumers to shop for qualified health plans that fit their budget with less hassle. • We've also opened a consumer call center that will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. • This toll -free service will help answer questions, and starting October 1 st it will provide personalized assistance for callers who are filling out their application or selecting a plan • Whether consumers seek out help through the call center, through the website's live chat feature, or through trained professionals who will be working in their communities, they'll have access to support that is personal, unaffiliated with the insurance industry — and available to help in more than 150 languages. • As we head into summer, we'll kick our enrollment efforts into high gear. We'll be distributing funds to community health centers and other organizations that have signed on to help consumers navigate the new Marketplace. And we'll be working closely with additional partners across the country to help American families and businesses get ready for the fall. • With the Marketplace taking shape, we're already seeing some early indicators of how Americans could benefit. • We've heard promising news about rates that will be offered in a number of states, including Vermont, Rhode Island, Washington, Oregon, and California. • And early data also shows that the Marketplace will give many consumers greater choice. In a majority of states today, for example, a single insurer covers more than half of all individuals enrolled in the private market—but when the Marketplaces open up this fall, consumers will have an average of at least 15 qualified plans to choose from. • Another study found that by making health insurance more affordable and ending discrimination against pre - existing conditions, the law will enable up to 1.5 million more Americans to go into business for themselves. • The promise of the Affordable Care Act is within our grasp. We are way to better health insurance options for the American people. 0 Health Insurance Marketplace Sample Materials - Drop in article for newsletters, etc. Are You Ready?

COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS In July 2013, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced $150 million in grant awards to 1,159 health centers across the nation to enroll uninsured Americans in new health coverage options made available by the Affordable Care Act. Health centers in all 50 states received these awards. The purpose of this funding is to help consumers understand their coverage options through the new Marketplace, Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program; determine their eligibility and what financial help they can get; and enroll in new affordable health coverage options beginning October 1. For a list of health centers receiving this funding in your state please visit: www.hrsa.gov/about/news/2013tables/outreachandenrollment/ NAVIGATORS Each Marketplace must establish a grant program to fund entities or individuals called "Navigators" that will provide consumer assistance. Navigators will help consumers understand new health insurance options available through the Marketplace and will help consumers select a health plan. Navigators will have a vital role in helping consumers prepare electronic and paper applications to establish eligibility and enroll in coverage through the Marketplace. This includes steps to help consumers find out if they qualify for insurance affordability programs (including a premium tax credit, cost sharing reductions, Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program) and, if eligible, to get enrolled. Navigators will also provide outreach and education to consumers to raise awareness about the Marketplace, and will refer consumers to ombudsmen and other consumer assistance programs when necessary. Those who are approved to be Navigators in Federally Facilitated and State Partnership Marketplaces will be notified of their grant approval on or around August 15. 11 EMEMM „.�Health Insurance Marketplace In a Federally - facilitated or State Partnership Marketplace, you will be able to locate Navigators and other assisters by calling the National Health Insurance Marketplace Call Center or on HealthCare.gov under "Find Someone Local (in October).” A State -based Marketplace will have its own in- person assistance training requirements.

This gives insurance companies incentives to offer better products at lower prices than their competitors. • More Clout.

A: Critics of the law are arguing that premiums will rise by selectively looking only at one part of the law while ignoring critical provisions that lower costs and drive premiums downward. These claims do not take into consideration, for example, the tax credits and competition that will make private health insurance even more affordable for millions of Americans. Q: WHAT IF I CAN'T AFFORD INSURANCE? A: When you fill out a Marketplace health insurance application, you'll find out if you can get lower costs on monthly premiums or out -of- pocket costs, or get free or low -cost coverage.

Costs for essential health benefits over that are generally paid by the insurance company. These policies usually have lower premiums than a comprehensive plan, but cover you only if you need a lot of care. In the Marketplace, catastrophic policies cover three primary care visits per year at no cost, and also cover free preventive benefits. If you have a catastrophic plan in the Marketplace, you can't get lower costs on your monthly premiums or on out -of- pocket costs. When you fill out a Marketplace application, you'll see catastrophic plans listed as options if you qualify for them. Q: CAN I KEEP MY OWN DOCTOR?

Later, it was a movie set before becoming vacant for several years. Now a new role awaits the sprawling waterfront complex known as Terminals A and B, following the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority's decision Thursday to sell it to a Toronto manufacturer of outdoor furniture. The NFTA will receive $4.7 million for the almost 5o -acre parcel, while the region gains about 25o new manufacturing jobs. But another significant change lies in the future of the complex - private ownership. For the first time in anyone's memory, a major plot of outer harbor land will lie outside public control and pay taxes. "Over 8o percent has been placed in public hands," NFTA Chairman Howard A. Zemsky said of the outer harbor. "So we've definitely fulfilled our responsibility to provide full access. These are industrial facilities, and I don't think we in any way are changing the use or injuring the public enjoyment of the waterfront." Following the NFTA's move earlier this month to transfer the rest of its 384 -acre waterfront to the state parks system and the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp., Zemsky said the sale represents a fitting end to more than 50 years of ownership by the NFTA and a predecessor agency - the Niagara Frontier Port Authority. "We're extremely excited and proud," he said. "It's a great final chapter for the NFTA and the waterfront - the last piece of the puzzle." The sale move marks the end of years of NI+ TA efforts to concentrate on its core transportation mission, get out of the waterfront business and find an appropriate use for the buildings. Until now, the agency had found no success in marketing the 400,000 square feet of warehousing and office space, high bay doors, rail and water access, and parking for 500 cars. Gracious Living Corp. will be the new owner. It has two manufacturing facilities in suburban Toronto employing about 1,000 people and listing $loo million in sales. C, 6 IIX 1 �. The company makes outdoor furniture, indoor and outdoor organizing products, garage utility systems and pet accessories that company officials said are often sold in big -box stores. It now looks to establish its first U.S. location as well as access to the huge American market and expects to be operating by late next year. "We look forward to some great times, and look forward to embracing our new home," CEO Enzo Macri told reporters. "The economic conditions here are better than what we currently have in Canada... and we believe the U.S. is on an economic upswing and we can take advantage of that." The company also takes advantage of economic incentives that New York State offered, which helped in making the expansion decision. The Empire State Development Corp. offered $2 million in performance -based Excelsior Jobs Program tax credits in return for the company's job creation commitments The state's help was appreciated and important, said Gracious Living Vice President David Minor. "We want to make sure we are competitive," he said, adding that the incentives will help "maximize" that goal. The development Thursday also caught the attention of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who earlier this month came to Buffalo to announce the transfer of most of the outer harbor for state parks. "We are pleased to welcome the company to build their first U.S. plant to serve its growing U.S. market, as we continue to foster redevelopment on Buffalo's waterfront and revive New York's manufacturing industry," he said in a statement. Buffalo Niagara Enterprise has been working with Gracious Living since last November, assisting with site selection, workforce, access to incentives and international due diligence. "This project reinforces what a great economic driver our waterfront can be, especially when combined with the rest of our great manufacturing assets," BNE President Thomas Kucharski said. "We were very pleased to assist Gracious Living over the last to months, and I am delighted to welcome Enzo Macri and his team to Buffalo Niagara." Macri and Minor also seemed thrilled to relocate to the Buffalo waterfront. They expect to invest tens of millions of dollars into rehabilitating the vacant buildings and installing new plastic injection machinery, and they said they were primarily attracted to the location by its proximity to Toronto. In fact, Macri said the company all along had set its sights on Buffalo. He said another attraction was access to highway, rail and even water, adding it will investigate the potential of using the former port facilities for maritime shipping.

St. Ann's is a Buffalo treasure that is deserving of the recognition and protection that local landmark designation provides. Constructed in 1886, the towering Neo- Gothic church has been a cultural and community landmark for the East Side neighborhood for 127 years. Deeply rooted in European building tradition, the imposing scale of the structure is highlighted by two magnificent spires which once stood 200 feet high. The stunning exterior of St. Ann's is only rivaled by the ornate and elaborate interior of the church. Within the 7 foot -thick stonewalls, the soaring nave and transept are home to hundreds of historic and religious artifacts, many from 19th Century Germany, including thirty-five stunning stained glass windows that line the interior space. In addition to the primary church building, St Ann's campus consists of a school, a rectory, and a convent - each with its own historic detail, significance and charm. PBN is currently working with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo to establish an appropriate reuse for the entire St. Ann's campus, preserving the buildings and allowing the campus to continue to serve the people of the Buffalo Niagara region. Designation as a local landmark as requested in St. Ann's application is essential in protecting this historic structure's integrity and preserving its eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places and all associated tax credits incentives. PBN is currently working with the New York State Historic Preservation Office to establish a formal declaration of eligibility, which will attract development interest to save and rededicate the campus.
