The plan identifies projects that address critical needs in housing, neighborhood revitalization, economic development, and public services for low - and moderate - income households and communities. Pursuant to US Department of Housing and Urban Development requirements, the proposed Annual Action Plan has been developed through a citizen participation process. Copies of the final plan that is approved by Council will be made available for citizen review and comment at a public hearing to be held at the American Red Cross ai 6 PM on Tuesday, July 15, 2014. Public service agency contracts under the CDBG, ESG, and HOPWA programs can be approved as part of this Council item based upon the amounts committed to the agencies identified in the Annual Action Plan. The remainder of the budgeted items will follow the standard city contracting process or be expended pursuant to the authority granted in the sub- recipient agreements currently in effect between the City of Buffalo and Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency. I respectively request that your Honorable Body: (1) approve the proposed 2014/15 Annual Action Plan, and (2) authorize the Mayor's Office of Strategic Planning and /or Department of Community Services to execute all agreements and related documents to carry out the projects identified therein, consistent with the rules and regulations governing the CDBG, HOME, ESG, and HOPWA programs.

L PROPOSED ANNUAL ACTION PLAN October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015 Community Development Block Grant HOME Investment Partnerships Emergency Solutions Grant Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS CITY OF BUFFALO Byron W. Brown, Mayor June 23, 2014 �L9 INTRODUCTION The City of Buffalo is required to prepare an Annual Action Plan in order to receive funding through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for four entitlement programs: Community Development Block Grant, Home Investment Partnerships, Emergency Solutions Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS. The city will receive approximately $17.3 million in entitlement funding for the 2014/15 program year. This will be combined with $1.8 million in program income from loan repayments and the sale of property. While entitlement funding was down slightly from last year, the additional program income received by the city has led to a slight increase in the total amount of funding available. The city is shifting from a May 1— April 30 program year to one that runs from October 1— September 30. Starting the program year in May made it difficult to prepare, bid, contract for, and carry out construction projects before winter weather arrived. Starting in October will allow the city to prepare the necessary documents and obtain bids over the winter, so that construction on housing and public improvements can begin as soon as the weather breaks in the spring. Two public hearings are held to get citizen input on the Annual Action Plan. Both are announced through notices in the Buffalo News, Buffalo Criterion, and La Ultima Hora. The city also distributes over 700 notices to individuals, block clubs, and community groups; and posts notices on its web site. The city held an informational public hearing regarding community development needs on April 8, 2014; and two additional workshops were held in April to explain the uses and availability of funding for providing public services. Another public hearing will be held on July 1S at 6 Pm in the American Red Cross to review the final Annual Action Plan with the community. 1 2012 2013 2014 J Community Development Block Grant CDBG funding is used for a variety of activities, including emergency home repairs; demolition of abandoned structures; improvements to public facilities such as streets, sidewalks, parks, and community centers; repayment of loans; and support for community groups serving seniors and youth. Program delivery and administration help to cover the costs for community -based organizations and the city to provide these services. HUD allows the city to use up to 20 percent total CDBG budget to cover its costs in administering this program. 2 1� Housing The city will continue its Emergency Loan Program, which assists low- and moderate - income homeowners citywide to correct serious deficiencies such as roof, furnace, and hot water tank replacement; and repair of broken water and sewer lines and electrical systems. Program delivery funding will support the efforts of a loan contractor identified through an RFP process; for community -based organizations who assist with the program and provide matching funds, also secured through an RFP process; and city staff who work directly on these projects. Demolition The city will use CDBG funding to demolish vacant and abandoned residential, commercial, and industrial properties in low- and moderate - income neighborhoods. Program delivery funding will help to offset the city's costs of delivering these services. Public facilities The city will fund improvements to city -owned public facilities and parks that serve low- and moderate - income neighborhoods. It will also resurface streets and repair or replace sidewalks in eligible neighborhoods. Program delivery funding will support city staff who work directly on these projects. Economic development The city is obligated to repay previous Section 108 loan guarantees, and will use program delivery funding to maintain the city's existing portfolio of business loans. Public services The city will fund 29 non - profit agencies that provide services for seniors and youth at community centers, as well as activities such as fair housing, crime prevention, and literacy. HUD places a 15 percent cap on the amount of CDBG funding that can be directed to public services. 3 \` ` African Cultural Center Belle Center CAO/ Pratt VWUert Citizen Services /City nfBuffalo CRUCIAL FLARE Gloria Parks Community Center HOME MIN Legal Aid Bureau Matt Urban Center North Buffalo Community Center Old First Ward Community Association Police Athletic League Seneca-Babcock Community Center Valley Community Association West Side NHS w/v,5ov IT W- _`_' Evi n'-:1 omx $41,400 ON ^ -- - — - - '- --------'-------------- --- 4 f HOME Investment Partnerships HOME funding is used to support the acquisition and rehabilitation of owner - occupied and rental housing; and to assist in the work of Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs). Funding for CHDOs is provided by formula. At HUD's direction, the city allocates 15 percent of its HOME entitlement budget to assist CHDOs with the acquisition and rehabilitation of housing, and another five percent to cover their operating costs. The city distributes the balance of its HOME funding through an RFP process. Proposals for funding to construct, rehabilitate, or convert structures for affordable housing are rated based on market analysis, cost effectiveness, development team experience and qualifications, M /WBE participation, and the amount of outside funding being leveraged. Finally, HUD allows the city to dedicate up to 10 percent of the total HOME budget to cover its costs in administering this program. 5 Emergency Solutions Grant ESG funding provides support to assist the homeless and other special needs populations. ESG applications are reviewed, rated, and recommended for funding by the Continuum of Care steering committee, a group that has been designated by HUD to coordinate homelessness efforts in the region, City representatives sit in on the review panel discussion, but do not rate applications. Outreach funding to locate homeless persons in shelters, soup kitchens, and on the street; and to secure appropriate services and case management for them, will be provided to the Matt Urban Center. Funding will be directed to five emergency shelter operators — City Mission, Compass House, Matt Urban Center, Salvation Army, and Vive; and four transitional housing providers — FLARE Teaching and Restoring Youth, Gerard Place, Saving Grace Ministries, and YWCA, for operating expenses and support services. Since persons in poverty are the most susceptible to becoming homeless, prevention funding will be provided to Neighborhood Legal Services to assist tenants facing eviction. The city initiated a Rapid Rehousing Demonstration Project during the current program year to help homeless individuals and families reclaim permanent housing. This effort will be carried forward in the 2014/15 program year, with an RFP distributed to solicit interest in delivering this service. The Homeless Alliance of WNY will receive funding to manage the HUD - mandated Homeless Management Information System (H MIS). Finally, HUD allows the city to take up to 7.5 percent of the ESG budget to cover its costs in administering this program. The Homeless Alliance will receive $20,000 of this funding. City Mission $195,000 FLARE TRY $33,500 Homeless Alliance $70,000 Neighborhood Legal Services . $50,000 Saving Grace Ministries $35,000 YWCA $20,000 City V Buffalo (admin) $69,546 I Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS HOPWA funding is used to assist individuals and families who are either HIV - positive or living with AIDS. As the only HOPWA grantee in the region, HUD requires that the city provide these services to all residents of Erie and Niagara Counties. There are roughly 2,300 persons in both counties who are known to be HIV - positive, with another 550 to 600 potentially undiagnosed. The city will provide HOPWA funds to the American Red Cross, Benedict House, and Evergreen Health Services to assist with delivering housing placement, housing assistance, and supportive services. HUD also allows the city to take up to 3 percent of the HOPWA budget to cover its costs in administering this program. 7 FROM THE COMPTROLLER June 24, 2014 d Certificate of Necessity Transfer of Funds We, Byron W.

SCHROEDER COMPTROLLER ANNE FORTI- SCIARRINO FIRST DEPUTY COMPTROLLER KEVIN J. KAUFMAN, CPA CITY AUDITOR CITY OF BUFFALO Section 7 -5 of the Charter of the City of Buffalo - Annual Audit Plan "By the beginning of each fiscal year, the comptroller shall submit to the council for review and comment an annual plan designating the offices, departments, boards, commissions, activities, programs, functions, agencies and other entities scheduledfor audit in the fiscal year and listing the same completed in the prior fiscal year. The plan may be amended during the year as deemed necessary by the comptroller. Notwithstanding the auditplan submitted to the council, the comptroller may at any time initiate and conduct any other audit the comptroller deems appropriate. The authority for selection of audit areas shall reside solely with the comptroller; provided that the comptroller shall perform the audits required by paragraphs 4 and 5 of Section 7-4 of this charter. " Introduction The mission of the Division of Audit is to advance open and accountable government through accurate, independent,. and objective audits that seek to improve the economy, efficiency and effectiveness of the government of the City of Buffalo (the "City "). The Division of Audit has limited resources to accomplish this mission,. These resources must be used prudently to maximize results. Processes and procedures are continuously evaluated to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of our audits. Additionally, compliance with Internal Auditing Standards issued by Institute of Internal Auditors (the "IIA ") will continue to be evaluated to assure stakeholders that the Audit Reports issued are of the highest quality. Audit Plan The Division of Audit will continue to focus its efforts on revenues, and how to maximize them, and expenditures, and how to limit or reduce them by eliminating waste, fraud, and mismanagement. Audits will be selected based on a risk analysis, departments and expenditures determined to have a higher risk will be subject to more frequent audits. Factors included in determining risk are size of budget, compliance requirements, variance analysis, prior audit results and results of internal control questionnaires. This risk -based plan, with a focus on maximizing revenues and reducing expenditures, will assist in achieving our goal of conducting audits that will have a positive fiscal impact for the City. The risk analysis used to determine audits to be performed will include a review of the Budget. Revenues and Expenditures that represent large percentages of our budgeted resources will be assigned a higher risk and will be subject to more frequent audits. The charts below document the budgeted revenues and expenditures for the City for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 2014. / P City of Buffalo Budget for the Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 2014 While the number of potential audits is numerous, the risk analysis will help to identify the areas where our resources would be most beneficial to the City's finances, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of the Division of Audit. We are determined to choose audits using our objective risk analysis, but reserve the right to audit any entity or transaction as allowable under Chapter 7 the Charter of the City of Buffalo (the "Charter "). Additionally there are several audits required to be performed in accordance with Chapter 7 of the Charter, a description and estimated schedule for the required audits is detailed in on page 5. Potential Audits based on Risk Analysis Revenues Property Taxes --- represents 30% of total revenue to the City, an audit of this revenue source would be an effective use of the Division of Audit's resources. Utility Taxes — Included in "Other" Revenue, the size of the budget does not make it high risk, but other risk factors including difficulty in evaluating completeness of revenues received make an audit appropriate. Licenses and Permi --- Budget size does not make this a high risk, but other risk factors s uch as a.large number of transactions involving cash make an audit appropriate. 2 /D Expenditures Payroll — This is the City's largest expenditure, therefore an audit is always appropriate. Benefits — This is the City's second largest expenditure, making it a high risk, and an expenditure that may be audited. Education — The City provides $70 million, 14% of the City's total expenditures to the Buffalo Public Schools annually. An evaluation of how these funds are spent would be an appropriate use of the Division of Audit's resources. Summary of Prior Year Audits The prior year Annual Audit Plan stated that the focus of audits would be on maximizing revenues and limiting expenditures, an approach that will be continued. Large expenditures and large sources of revenue were selected for audit, as well as revenues or expenditures that were most susceptible to waste, fraud, and theft. Revenue Related Audits Erie Basin Marina Audit (2008 -- 2012 Seasons) The audit discovered that the operator of the Marina underpaid the City by $343,245 over the five year period under audit. The contract with the operator was not renewed at the end of the 2013 Season as a result. Erie Basin Marina Audit (2013 Season.) The audit revealed that the operator of the Marina underpaid the City by $45,808 for the 2013 Season. The audit calculated rent due for the 2013 Season of $156,451, but the operator paid only $110,643. Expenditure Related Audits Fuel Consumption Audit The audit evaluated the City's use of fuel and recommended that the new system of internal controls safeguarding fuel consumption continue to be implemented and that fuel consumption be reviewed more frequently by management. Community Service Payroll Audit The audit recommended that an automated time entry system be evaluated, until that occurs a standardized time sheet should be implemented, timesheets should be reviewed and approved by management, timesheets should be required for all employees and all hours worked, and use of paid time off should be documented for each department employee. 3 Common Council Payroll Procedures This audit was required by Charter Section 7 -4(5) requiring the comptroller to engage an independent consultant to conduct an audit of the performance of the council staff every two years. It was determined an audit of the payroll process would be appropriate to meet this requirement. The recommendations were to evaluate the cost/benefit of a standard automated time entry system, formalize policies regarding paid time off, hours worked and approval of timesheets. Petty Cash Audit The audit recommended that petty cash funds be kept in a secure location, petty cash be used only for city business, that several of the petty cash funds be closed or reduced due to lack of use, custodians of petty cash be updated to align, with person performing the duties of petty cash custodian and stricter adherence to petty cash guidelines. Audit Follow -up Reports The IIA's International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing require that the Division of Audit establish and maintain a system to monitor the disposition of audit results communicated. The Division of Audit has established a follow -up process to monitor and ensure that actions have been effectively implemented. The Division of Audit has created a process of reviewing audit recommendations from the prior year audits and documenting the progress toward implementation of the recommendations. The results of these reviews are documented in an Audit Follow -up Report. The Reports are filed with the Common Council in the same manner as the original audit. Verifying the implementation of the audit recommendations is the final step of the audit process, and the audit hasn't truly been completed until this occurs. Therefore the Audit Follow -up Report is of paramount importance in the audit process. The Division of Audit completed three Audit Follow -up Reports during the prior year: Follow -up to Parking Department Audit Follow -up to Prescription Drug Plan Audit Follow -up to Common Council Discretionary Fund Audit The reports show the progress being made on implementing the audit recommendations. The majority of the recommendations have been implemented or are in the process of being implemented. Audits and Audit Follow -up Reports filed with the Common Council can be reviewed in their entirety on the Comptroller's website: htt p: / /www. city- buffalo.com/Home /Leadership /City Comptroller /Audits M V Audits Required and/or Allowed by the Charter Charter Citation Charter Requirements Description of Audit to be Conducted Estimated Completion Date Remarks Required The comptroller shall engage an independent Completed Audit / 7-4,5 consultant to conduct an audit of the performance of Review of Procedures January 2014 Next the council staff every two years.

The Cellebrite UFED Ultimate Touch will replace current equipment that is quickly becoming out of date and will no longer be supported. When hardwired to a smart phone or cell phone the UFED will allow Detectives to extract certain data, including GPS, SMS, MMS, phone calls, pictures and video. This data will provide invaluable information to aid Detectives in establishing a link between multiple parties, which could include a link between a suspect and a victim or between multiple suspects, and could also help break alibis or exonerate innocent parties. A request for proposals for this item was issued on March 5, 2014 to prospective bidders and advertised on the City's website, with a due date of April 9, 2014. The bid opening was conducted and two (2) responses were received, both for the Cellebrite UFED. The response submitted by the direct manufacturer, Cellebrite UFED was determined to offer the City the best value. This purchase will be completed utilizing current drug asset forfeiture funds.

The City issued a comprehensive Request for Proposals (RFP) for this service on December 19, 2013, and received three proposals in response prior to the January 27, 2014 deadline. A Review Committee consisting of myself, certain Law Department personnel, and a representative of the City's EMS Board conducted an exhaustive review and examination of the proposals in order to select the provider that insures the highest quality of service for the City. The Review Committee unanimously agreed that Rural/Metro submitted a superior application, which proposes additional resources to improve response times and overall patient care. Rurat/Metro has an established stake in the community as evidenced by its longstanding history with the City and its demonstrated commitment to local hiring. Significantly, Rural/Metro proposed a well thought out patient monitoring program to better utilize resources and increase efficiency in high demand periods. It also proposed two distinct programs to reduce unnecessary civilian reliance on emergency services. Furthermore, it has assured the City that extensive continuous quality improvement procedures have been put in place. Rural /Metro's proposal demonstrates a commitment to providing the best service and response times to the City and its residents. The City anticipates negotiating an increased franchise fee, penalties for any lapses in service should they arise, and swift implementation of resource conservation programs. By taking the above steps, City residents will benefit from improved EMS and ambulance response times, enhanced patient care and transport, and ongoing contract monitoring by the EMS Board.. In order to ensure a . seamless transition into the new contract period, I am also — _ ....... _ _ _- __ _requesting_ -an-extension of the current contract for one additional month, until July 31_,_2014.______ _ This extension will give us adequate time to negotiate a new five year contract. 1� Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

The Youth Program's funding from City budget sources for this summer (City's fiscal year 2014 -15 budget beginning July 1, 2014) is expected to be at least $1,200,000, with up to $1,176,000 thereof allocated to WCBE for Youth Program purposes and salaries for the participating youth. Direct operation and management by WCBE of the payroll functions of to the Youth Program is expected to streamline Youth Program operations and management and is expected to also facilitate faster and more efficient payroll turnaround and direct payroll distribution to the participating youth. Accordingly, the Department requests your Honorable Body to: 1. Grant the Deputy Commissioner and the Department the specific authority to enter into an agreement in form and substance acceptable to the department and fund up to $1,176,000 from the Department to WCBE to help administer the payroll functions of the youth program, 2. Authorize the Department and or other appropriate City staff to take all such steps and actions and to execute and or process such additional documentation, agreements and or modifications thereto as shall be necessary to facilitate and implement the terms and provisions of the agreement, and 3.

STATEMENT OF THE NEW YORK INSURANCE ASSOCIATION ( "NYIA ") BUFFALO CITY COUNCIL JUNE 17, 2014 r e► PA A) 1 43 t NYIA is the state trade association that has represented the property /casualty insurance industry in New York for more than 130 years. Our extensive membership includes carriers who write more than 40 percent of the New York State auto insurance market. On behalf of our member automobile insurance carriers, we appreciate the opportunity to present our perspective on transportation network companies ( "TNCs ") such as Uber and Lyft (also known as "ride sharing companies "). As commercial ride sharing has become more prevalent throughout the United States, we are beginning to see numerous issues arise regarding the application of insurance to TNCs. These TNCs rely on applications and other online platforms to match potential paying customers needing a ride with drivers who are using their own personal vehicles to provide transportation to these customers. One primary insurance problem arising from people using their personal vehicles for transporting persons in exchange for money is the existence of a common automobile insurance provision stipulating that coverage is excluded if the policyholder suffers a claim while driving for hire. This provision is commonly called the livery exclusion. While policies from different auto insurance carriers can vary, the livery exclusion is extremely standard and can be found in most auto insurance policies. This exclusion means as a practical matter that there would probably be no coverage on the driver's personal auto policy for injuries or damages to other people suffered in an accident arising out of participation in a TNC. In addition, coverage would most likely be excluded for damage to the vehicle, no fault, and both uninsured /underinsured motorist coverage. The policy behind this exclusion is straight - forward: driving for hire is a vastly different and much more hazardous activity than driving for personal needs and hence represents a greater exposure to loss than personal automobile insurance policies are designed to handle. While NYIA is not philosophically or conceptually opposed to TNCs, the insurance aspects of their operations must meet certain criteria in order to ensure they are not subverting the private automobile insurance market and leading to inefficiencies in the market. While not a complete list, the following are some of the major elements NYIA believes must be 130 Washington Avenue ® Albany, NY 12210 - ( (518) 432 -4227 . (518) 432 -4224 fax • info @nyia.org W www.nyia.org '" implemented in order for a TNC to properly operate and have adequate automobile insurance coverage for the protection of the entire driving public. Since the livery exclusion is so common, the TNCs must have primary auto insurance coverage that takes effect form when the application first comes on and remains in effect until the application is off. The TNC auto insurance coverage should be commercial auto insurance coverage to reflect the commercial nature of this driving with limits high enough to cover most accidents. In addition, any law governing TNCs and insurance must contain clear exclusion language (and in fact stipulate there is no coverage) for the personal auto insurance policy of the driver while the driver is logged onto a TNC's digital network. In addition, TNCs must be mandated to provide notice to the private passenger auto insurers of all vehicles and drivers that are participants in the TNCs. These are the most significant items that need to be considered when crafting the insurance laws to allow for TNCs. NYIA is pleased to provide this information and would welcome the opportunity to work with all the impacted stakeholders to resolve these important issues. Thank you for allowing us to submit this statement. REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON COMMUNITY DEVaLOPMENT. 0 .4 3 7 n ., 0 PCI * . ** ;D uOVC -60 C�rnmC,f21� A 1_ P? Ikb C, 5th 1 1AfG Property Casualty Insurers Association of America Advocacy.. Leadership, Results. Statement of Kristina Baldwin Property Casualty Insurers Association of America Buffalo City Council ,rune 17, 2014 On behalf of the 1,000 member companies at the Property Casualty Insurers Association of America, also known as PCI, who together write more than 50% of the automobile insurance written in New York, representing over $6.3 billion in premium, we thank you forthe opportunityto provide our views on Transportation Networks or "Commercial Ride Sharing ". Over the past year, PCI has been following the emergence of web- and smartphone -based tools allowing individuals to share goods and property. As some of these tools have morphed into commercial enterprises, questions are being raised regarding insurance coverages. These Transportation Network or Commercial Ride Sharing Networks have taken the shared expense "car pool" concept several steps further by not only matching riders with drivers, but setting standards for participation and facilitating payment via credit card, while taking a fee on each fare. These services have become a viable alternative to taxis in jurisdictions across the country. Insurance Issues While PCI supports innovation and does not oppose Transportation Network Services as a business model, these service offerings present a number of insurance issues that need to be addressed to protect the interests of Transportation Network Services drivers, passengers, other drivers on the roads, and Transportation Network Services companies, as well as automobile insurers. To do that requires that all stakeholders have a clear expectation of what insurance coverage is being provided, when it's being provided and by whom. That has been the basis for PCI's engagement on this issue around the country. Most personal automobile policies contain exclusions for vehicles being operated as a "livery" or to carry persons or property for a fee. As a result, there would likely be no coverage on the driver's personal auto policy for injuries or damage arising out of an accident that occurred while involved in Transportation Network activities. Coverage would likely also be excluded for damage to the vehicle, no fault, and uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. The reason for the exclusion is simple: these kinds of activities present a significantly different and increased exposure to loss than personal automobile policies are intended to cover. The emerging Transportation Network Companies (TNC's) have been providing insurance coverage, but often say it is on an excess or contingent or umbrella basis or that it "drops down" should the driver's 8700 West Bryn Mawr Avenue, Suite ?2405, Chicago, IL 60631 Telephone 847-297-7800 www.pciaa. net w coverage not apply. They also provide different coverage limits under different circumstances, depending on if the driver has accepted a ride or not. These issues are a source of confusion for drivers and passengers, who either erroneously believe that the personal automobile policy will provide coverage, or realize that it does not and are simply hoping for the best. This confusion is likely to result in costly coverage disputes and delayed compensation to accident victims. PCI's Essential Elements for Commercial Ride Sharing As I said earlier, PCI does not oppose the Transportation Network business model. Our members write commercial as well as personal automobile coverage and these new programs present an opportunity for commercial writers as well. However, we do believe that there are some "essential elements" that need to be addressed to deal with the insurance issues surrounding Transportation Network Services. First, the current case law regarding the private passenger auto policy livery exclusion must not be undermined. As you may know, insurance is unique in that the ultimate cost of providing the product isn't known. Insurers use historical loss costs and must make assumptions to project those costs into the future to price their products. Changes in the law can mean that those assumptions will no longer be valid. Some legislation or rules introduced in other states have attempted to undermine the livery exclusion by changing the definition of Transportation Network Services, a private passenger auto or personal automobile coverage, in effect, requiring all drivers to pay for coverage for Transportation Network Services activities. There is little question that these drivers are engaged in a commercial activity, one that changes the fundamental nature of the risk being insured. This is precisely the reason that there are separate policies, and pricing for taxis and limousines and other vehicles that carry passengers for a fee. Transportation Network Services and their drivers should have coverage that is primary and ideally applies on a 24/7 basis. We also believe that Transportation Network Services operators should provide clear disclosures to their drivers regarding the insurance coverages they provide, and notify them that their personal automobile policy will not provide coverage for injuries or damage resulting from commercial activity. It's also important that the driver's personal auto insurer be made aware of their participation in such programs, either from the driver or the Transportation Network Company, so that duplicate claims aren't made for accidents. It is also essential that the coverage provided by the TNC have a duty to defend the driver and their personal insure should they be named in a lawsuit resulting from an accident while available for TNC services. Disputes can arise, therefore we also believe it is imperative that the TNC provide notice to drivers and their personal insurer of any potential dispute regarding whether or not the driver was available for TNC services at the time of the accident, make available data and records about the drivers participation to both the driver and the personal insurer to resolve those disputes quickly. Current Regulation of Commercial Ride Sharing While Transportation Network Services have been around for several years, there had been very little in the way of legislative or regulatory activity regarding these programs until this year. California's Public Utility Commission (CPUC), which also regulates taxis and limousines, established the first regulatory regime for Transportation Network Services last fall. The CPUC regulates TNCs as common carriers. The CPUC requires safety inspections of TNC vehicles, background checks on drivers and, notably, mandates insurance coverage to be provided by the TNC on a primary -- as opposed to a secondary or umbrella basis -- if the driver does not have applicable coverage. The CPUC regulations do not currently define when a driver is engaged in TNC activity. Significantly, the issue of when a TNC driver is engaged in commercial activity took on great urgency after a tragic accident in San Francisco on New Year's Eve. A young girl was struck and killed by a driver who had been enrolled as a TNC driver. There is a dispute concerning whether or not the driver was engaged in commercial activity at the time of the accident, and lawsuits were recently filed against all of the parties involved. Currently, the CPUC is in the process of revising its regulations to more comprehensively address the issues involved, and there are two bills pending in the California legislature to deal; with those issues as well. That incident has precipitated a number of legislative and regulatory proceedings. Cities such as Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, Milwaukee and Nashville are either discussing or have passed or proposed ordinances regulating these services. States that have considered legislation in this area include Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Oklahoma, Virginia and Washington. With the passage of SB 125, Colorado recently became the first state to pass legislation on a state wide basis Although it is not perfect in our eyes, it established several of PCI's critical elements including: primary coverage by TNCs from app on to app off, clear exclusion language for the personal auto policy while the driver is logged onto a TNC's digital network, and it allows for innovation of future insurance markets to meet the needs of this emerging industry and addresses some of the basic insurance issues that must be addressed. Conclusion These new and innovative programs represent an opportunity for our members, so we would encourage cities, legislators and regulators to be careful not to preclude Innovation in the insurance industry to respond to changes in how the transportation services market evolves and how consumers use their vehicles in the future. PCI has been extensively engaged in this issue around the country and stands ready to assist the council in any way we can. We believe that there is a way for the insurance issues to be addressed and we look forward to the opportunity to work with all stakeholders to resolve the insurance issues involved. Once again, thank you for the opportunity to share our views on this issue.

Unfortunately, on such last minute 'notice I am unable to attend. I would ask that this letter be made entered into the record of today's proceeding, as Lyft would certainly have had representatives in attendance bad there been any notice. While I understand the concerns raised about Lyft, I would remind you that at the May 20, 2014 Community Development Committee meeting, you indicated that no action would be taken without representation from both Lyft and from the taxi and livery industry, and that you would refer this matter to a subcommittee to examine the issue and possibly promulgate appropriate regulation. I would request that any items relative to Lyft be tabled without dicussion until the next Community Development Conumittee meeting, at which time I will ensure not only my presence, but the presence of representatives from Lyft's corporate headquarters. It is neither consistent with the process you assured nor does it reflect well on our great city to sprung last minute hearings on new industries, rather than engaging in an orderly and sensible discourse on the matter.

Current plans for the building at the corner of 10 and Virginia Streets (the building recently renovated by Hispanos Unidos of Buffalo) call for conversion to a substance abuse counseling clinic and a methadone clinic. This is not acceptable for the following reasons: • All neighbors were not notified of these plans, and only a few hand - picked neighbors were invited for "public input ". It is clear that the majority of residents, businessowners, and homeowners do not support the plan. • A methadone clinics are necessary, but do not belong in a residential neighborhood especially since there are suitable commercial districts nearby. How far away from your houses is the nearest methadone clinic? • A methadone clinic will stifle economic development along Virginia Street, the major connector between the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus /UB Medical School and Niagara Street /190 Interstate. A new business owner /investor has significant concerns regarding his new business plans across the street. This street has a history as a hotspot for prostitution and drug deals catering to businessmen traveling to and from work. Let hope that we do not return to these days: • The closing of the former methadone clinic at Georgia and Niagara Streets has had significant positive impact to the neighborhood. • The methadone clinic will be within a few short blocks from Buffalo Public School 76 Elementary and Hutch Tech High Schools. • The methodone clinic will decrease quality of life for residents and pedestrians on Chippewa Street. • The methodone clinic will decrease property values. • There is already a needle exchange program at the corner of Elmwood and Chippewa Streets. How many of these types of substance abuse services are needed in one concentrated area? 2. The property at 229 Carolina Street (at the corner of Whitney Place) is currently vacant, in disrepair, and unkept. This is a building with State, Federal, and City Historic Registrations. Recently one of the windows has been boarded up. Drug activity has occurred on the front and rear steps and inthe cellar alcove. The property owner should be taken to housing court for these continued violations. I believe the owner resides in the New York City area. Note that this house can no longer operate as a rooming house and by law cannot be "grandfathered in ". 3. The property at 11 Whitney is currently operating as a rooming house, without following the guidelines as mandated in the City Charter. Please let us know your action plan for the above issues, and please copy us on any correspondence. We appreciate your anticipated support as our representatives. Thank You, Emmett and Jennifer Marzahn Questions for HUB meeting on clinic. 6/18/14 * Denotes question asked at meeting (or answered as part of other questions other questions) BASICS * Why does HUB want to institute this program? *Do we really need a clinic here when there is one 10 blocks away downtown and one on Niagara Street? *Won't this type of clinic be better fit for a more commercial area? Much concern about closeness to school and child care (in HUB itself). Is the clinic a medical operation? Is the Medical Director of this program a licensed physician? o Will the physician be on -site during all hours of operations Who is the program sponsor (required)? Who is the program director, if there is one (not- required)? *Is this a for- profit clinic? * What are the days and hours of operation? (the only answer we'd want here is 24/7 or at least 7 days a week. Otherwise people are getting take - home doses they can sell). CONSUMER/CLIENT SPECIFIC *What measures are in place to ensure methadone intended for qualified clients is not illegally sold or distributed? - *Aare all doses taken in- house? - Where will medications be stored during hours of operation as well as after hours of operation? * (original question was: Are clients screened before being given each dose ?) Question asked was: Are-clients tested to determine if they're on other drugs *Does the client also receive any counseling? *How does a person qualify to benefit from this service? Is it open to any heroin addict in the city, or just people within a certain zip code /neighborhood? CRIME, ETC. *What safety /security measures does HUB have in place to monitor and attend to crime /nuisances, etc. as potential unintended consequences of this program? *What will this do to the crime rate? What will happen to the property value of our homes? *How will loitering of consumer /clients be controlled by HUB? - Not just around HUB but, the neighborhood *How will traffic be controlled on this stretch of Virginia that is already extremely congested at times? LAWS Zoning Board Permit (Not asked. Patty found out they were possibly zoned as a health/community center years ago and this clinic is covered under that—we're still uncertain of this) - Was a change in use approved by the City of Buffalo? - Appropriate number of parking spaces: How is this requirement being met? c (I believe it's 1 space per 250 sq. ft. of gross floor area for a clinic) Does HUB have State, CSAT, DEA, and CARF accreditation? - What is the accrediting body you went through for OTP (opioid treatment program) accreditation? *Is it complying with SAMHSA guidelines? - Community Relations requirements /guidelines not met *Why the skirting of the rules and regulations of the public meeting law? Does the city have a say in licensing such a clinic? What are the next steps to have this passed? Or is it already a done deal? *Did the HUB Board of Directors meet and vote on instituting this program/clinic? - If so, may we have a copy of the minutes from that meeting? What was the outcome of that discussion and vote? - If not, why? (We heard from Board members that they did not meet and vote on this and, in fact, that some were quite against it). o Without Board approval, isn't this violating the law by not gaining the approval of HUB's legal, governing body? We request copies of all city, state and federal applications and contracts pertaining to this venture and the documented approval of those applications (e.g. permits, certifications, accreditations, licenses, community development block grants, etc.). dry .+���mr -w��- T Z-c C`" 1 } �.

Notary Public {2286907 :1 6 1'�� Gleed, Thomas Subject: Councilmember Franczyk resloution re: Proposed Methadone Clinic at HUB: Dear Honorable Body, City of Buffalo Council Member (s) and Friends: I am Thomas Gieed and 1 reside at 204 West Tupper Street for the past 25 years. In the years I have lived at 204 W Tupper I have seen our neighborhood(s) grow and decline, formerly in the wake of either the 10 Street Gang, the 16th Street Gang, the Hoods, the Bloods, absentee landlords, pimps, prostitutes, drug dealers, and recently a Meth Lab on Garden St (Alley) that was eventually shut down at the begging and pleading of our neighbors. Upon raiding this lab there were 7 or 8 arrested, over $200,000,00 stashed throughout the building. There was no big photo op after the raid because it took place without the proper warrants. Fortunately the "owner of the property and lab" committed suicide immediately after his release from jail after the raid. That may sound cold, but in these instances emotion trumps reason. It was told to us by Buffalo Police that there was enough product in and in the way the lab was set up it could have blown out three properties if there was a meth explosion. We have also been the repository for used needles, sometime dozens at a time. We even find OD'd citizens lying half dead in our backyards and alleys. But that is nearly in the past, we hope and with your support. In the past several decades our neighborhood has shifted to one of investment, by owners who now reside in their properties, bringing in young couples with families, young professional tenants, policeman, teachers, and doctors, which has empowered us to create a very strong and vibrant Block Club, VETTE (Virginia St /Edward ST /Trinity St /Tupper St, and S Elmwood Ave). We now have an award winning Community Garden in conjunction with Grassroots Gardens. We share our boarders with Allentown and the West Village and work along with their organizations as well. It's healthy and its growing. The investment in downtown and particularly in the Theatre District and opening of Main St to traffic, along with the spread and development of the Medical Corridor has only increased the value of our properties and made us more appealing for further investment. It's taken a while, but it's happening! Now to even consider opening a Methadone Clinic in this residential area is categorically absurd and unwanted. To do so and in the manner in which they have proceeded, in secret and without even the remotest outreach to the immediate neighborhoods and community at large is outright unacceptable and an insult to every one of us concerned about our safety and quality of life. It's not a matter of NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard), an absurd catch phrase if I ever heard one, but a matter of our neighborhood's future. What took decades to get to can easily be destroyed by such an irresponsible move on the part of the Board of Directors of Hispanics United of Buffalo. One only need talk to anyone living near, or working near, or going to any number of the methadone Clinics operating in the City of Buffalo to hear horror stories of what goes on in, around, or in the neighborhoods close by, that are regular occurrences by the consumer of the clinic or the many attending problems with those brought close by to sell, trade, retrieve, as in the case of disgruntled sellers. The stories are horrifying. And what makes this situation even worse is that the Methadone Clinic proposed by HUB is in direct line to Herman Badillo Bilingual Academy and with a very short distance to a NYS Licensed Daycare. How, please tell me, could this be eve a consideration. We are united in our belief that while this clinic and clinics of its kind are necessary in this community at large, there is a more suitable location for these services, say a commercial strip, an area in which there are other medical or clinical settings, but not within a neighborhood and so close to a school and within the walking pattern of children going to and coming from school, a Chide Day care Center, and in a community center that was never designed nor contemplated to be a heath care facility. It's unacceptable on any level. There is a better alternative- this is not one of them. Please sign on to Council Member David Franczyk's resolution today and stand with us in the fight to block the opening of a Methadone Clinic in our neighborhood. Respectfully, —PLIM ee&ex 7 REFERRED TO THE CCM1EE ON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. �140 Q K PROPOSED PUBLIC FACI<LMES CDRG Year 40 October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015 Street resurfacin The Department of Public Works provides an annual list of streets that require resurfacing which are in or near the target area established by the Better Buffalo Fund. Based on HUD guidelines, the city conducts a three -part review to determine eligibility. The first step is a check to ensure that each street segment is located within a HUD - specified law /moderate-income block group, The second step requires the city to count the individual parcels on both sides of the street, and confirm that at least 51 percent are currently in residential use. The final step takes the estimated cost of resurfacing each segment and divides it bythe number of residential parcels, to eliminate any segments that have an unusually }sigh cost per unit. Sidewalk replacement The Department of Public Works provides an annual list of sidewalks in need of repair which are in or near the target area established by the Better Buffalo Fund. Based.on HUD guidelines, the city conducts a three -part review to determine eligibility. The first step is a check to ensure that each street segment is located within a HUD- specified low/moderate income block group. The second step requires the city to count the individual parcels an both sides of the street, and confirm that at least 51 percent are currently residential uses. The final step takes the estimated cost of sidewalk replacement for each segment, and divides it by the number of residential parcels, to eliminate any segments that have an unusually high cost per unit. Community centers and franks The Department of Public Works provides an annual list of repairs and. upgrades needed at city -awned community centers and parks which are in or near the target area established by the Better Buffalo Fund. Based on HUD guidelines, the city first checks to ensure that these facilities serve HUD specified low /moderate income populations. After conducting this analysis, the city reviewed the recommended repairs to determine which ones addressed structural issues that would compromise the integrity of the facility if not corrected. Based on this assessment, six city - owned buildings were recommended for immediate attention. In addition, picnic shelters wili be added at two parks.

Part of my performance, when working in an appropriate space, is fire performance. My son and I juggle flaming torches as our finale for most of the summer. Recently it has come to my attention that the City of Buffalo is cracking down on fire performers. Chief Morganti of the Buffalo Fire Department told me that he has seen some performers acting in a dangerous and irresponsible manner, and therefore has had to change the rules with regard to fire performance permitting, etc. I can certainly understand Chief Morganti's position with regard to public safety. It is, after all, the most important thing. Having said that though, I'm not sure the situation as it stands now is the most workable for all involved. I don't believe these changes came through any sort of legislative means, so I am also unsure as to their legality. For many years in the City of Buffalo, in order for someone to engage in any sort of act that can be considered performance, one must first purchase a Performer's License from the Department of Permit and Inspection Services at City Hall. That permit has recently been altered to say that it does not cover any sort of fire performance or words to that effect. If you are going to engage in fire performance you must purchase a Vendor's License which is a one time use permit. This triggers a meeting with the Fire Chief and a meeting at the area where the performance is to take place. An audit of the area is conducted at which time the City's fire safety concerns are reviewed and the appropriate rules agreed to. Then and only then can someone "legally" perform with fire within the city. I totally understand the Fire Cheifs concerns, however, this system does not seem to me to be particularly workable for a number of reasons. I sent a letter a while back to Ms. Kimberly Trent who was at that time the Director of Special Events for the City of Buffalo. Ms. Trent seemed very agreeable to the idea of trying to get the laws and permit restrictions changed to a more workable system. Since she is gone, I am contacting you. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. I look forward to meeting with you to discuss a workable solution.

I don't think so. We do have a suggestion that we believe establishes a common ground — We suggest moving the Buffalo School Board Election to the same date as the surrowiding districts in May. We believe that will increase turnout and still beep the School Board Elections non- partisan. Please advise us of the vote on this item. PR: su REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON LEGISLATION. Y \. ve-.

It will also be an instrument for a number of individuals to present to officials to accept or deny states Demone Smith, Chair of the Education Committee. The City has not been able to vocalize or submit a solid public policy on education. We are ready to begin the work to develop the framework where we can accomplish this goal." From today for the next couple of months we will 1. Invite and accept white papers on improving the Education System of the City of Buffalo. The White Paper should be on governmental policy to help understand issue(s) and make a decision or solve a problem prior to legislation. We have currently received one white paper on education so far. It is a starting point and adjustable. 2. Hold public hearings on the topics of a. Parent and teacher engagement b.

One such issue was "must The City of Buffalo continue to fund failing schools ?" Especially since the Board of Education continues to be in violation of State Education Law. Additionally, is the City perpetuating failure by continuing to allocate over half the property taxes collected to failing schools while having no mechanisms in place to hold the district responsible for the allocation? After participating in this conversation, five questions remain that I could not answer: 1) Does The City of Buffalo have standing for filing a lawsuit on behalf of the residents against the Board of Education and/ or the State Department of Education for not performing their mandated duty to provide a sound education to the students of The City of Buffalo? If so what would the process be? 2) Is it possible to have the School Board's budget separated from the City budget and voted on individually by the Council? 3) Is it possible for The City of Buffalo to take over the education system and eliminate a separate school system? If so, what would the process be and what options does the City have? 4) Is the Buffalo Board of Education in violation of the New York State and United States Constitutions? w 5) Can you give a clarification of the state's requirement for maintenance of effort? Pagel of 2 I respectfully request an immediate response since there is an Education meeting Thursday evening, where these questions may come up again. If there is any need for further information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly. REFERRED TH E SPE IAL = MUTTE'Ac, ON EDUCATION 6 Page 2 of 2 bemone A. amitli The Buffalo Sewer Authority (BSA) has posted a "Bird Avenue and Land Avenue Real Time Control System 9 Storage FACT SHEET on their website http: //bsacsoimprovcments.oral to "answers questions and clears up misconceptions that have been circulated recently." To the question: Is this a commonly accepted Technology? BSA's Answer: "Yes. As part of our Wet Weather Operating Plan, the Authority continues its commitment to following the EPA's Nine Minimum Controls and the DEC's Best Management Practices by maximizing use of the collection system for storage, and maximizing flow to the Treatment Plant. As a long featured technology, In Line storage has been championed by the EPA for its effectiveness in reducing combined sewer overflows. In Line storage similar to the current projects being constructed by the Authority has been in successful operation for several years in cities such as Seattle, Milwaukee, and Cleveland to name a few. " Under the EPA's CSO (Combined Sewer Overflow) Control Policy, discharge permits issued to communities with CSS's (Combined Sewer Systems) are expected to include "nine minimum controls." Maximization of storage in the collection system (In -Line Storage) is one of the nine minimum CSO controls. A visit to the EPA website regarding in -line storage points to three case studies: Boston, Massachusetts, Cleveland/Akron Ohio Area and Norwalk, Connecticut. It is important to note that for all three of these cases NEW concrete and steel construction of in -line storage was accomplished by boring deep tunnels hundreds of feet below ground. NONE of these case studies entail storing sewage in existing porous brick sewer lines 10 feet below residential streets. The BSA points to two additional cities, Milwaukee and Seattle, as having successfully operated inline storage Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District's combined sewage conveyance system has been operational since 1994 and includes In -line Storage System as one of its three major components. Milwaukee's in -line storage consists of 19.4 miles of tunnels, 300 feet below ground. The deep tunnel system can hold up to 405 million gallons of flow. In the case of Seattle, the Denny Way / Lake Union Combined Sewer Overflow Mercer Street Tunnel, measures approximately 15 feet in diameter, is 6,212 feet long, and varies from 60 -150 feet below Mercer Street. It provides 7.2 million gallons of CSO storage. The tunnel lining is segment type prefab reinforced concrete. (not 100 plus year old porous brick.) Seattle's, Henderson IM.L. King CSO project included new construction of an underground storage tunnel that has an inside diameter of about 15 feet. It runs two - thirds of a mile to the south under Beacon Hill at depths of 30 to 100 feet beneath 42nd Avenue South. The tunnel can hold and treat up to 4 million gallons of combined wastewater and storm water. A Seattle Public Utilities power point presentation on the Henderson tunnel (Restore our Waters Seattle Public Utilities /Combined Sewer Overflow Reduction, Pg4) offered the following page entitled: REFERRED TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT COMMISSION 1��R What does. Storage Look Like? Henderson tunnel, Seattle Public Utilities Y 7 What Does Buffalo Sewer Authority In -Line Storage look like? Bird Avenue In -Line Storage Project Comparing the inline storage technology of Boston, Cleveland, Norwalk, Milwaukee and Seattle to Buffalo's in -line storage plan is like equating horse and buggy to high speed line rails. Other examples: Atlanta, GA — The West Area CSO Storage Tunnel is 8.5 miles long, with a 24 -foot finished diameter: Constructed in bedrock about 170 feet deep, the tunnel can store up to 177 million gallons of overflow after a rainstorm. Providence, R.I. 3 -mile -long, 60 million gallons capacity, 300 -foot deep tunnel beneath the city, completed in 2008 To the Question: Was State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR) completed for the Bird Avenue and Lang Avenue projects? BSA Answer: Yes. The Authority, as lead agency for the project, prepared an Environmental Assessment form in 2012 based upon the 2012 Long Term Control Plan. The 2012 Plan specifically mentioned both the Bird Avenue and the Lang Avenue projects as well as a number of other similar projects across the City as established and finalized projects. The Environmental Assessment examined air quality, ground and surface water quality, noise and traffic levels and existing community or neighborhood character, among other SEQR Act criteria and found that the project would not result in any significant adverse impacts. The BSA did prepare an Environmental Assessment form based on the 2012 Long Term Control Plan (LTCP) and although the Bird Avenue and the Lang Avenue projects are mentioned in both the LTCP and SEQRA (State Environmental Quality Review Act) documentation they are described as RTC (Real Time Control) pilot programs that are in the process of being designed and development. The 2012 LTCP for which the SEQRA review was based on, describes the Bird and Land Ave projects as follows: (Section 11, pg 14) "As part of the LTCP implementation, the BSA has selected two sites for implementation as demonstration projects. The intent is to assess all aspects of RTC implementation- design, construction, and monitoring and then assess the projects to determine the effectiveness of these RTC concepts at reducing overflow frequencies and volumes. In addition, these demonstration projects will give the BSA staff a sense of the effort it will take to effectively operate and maintain these types of facilities before embarking on the system wide program. • Bird Avenue Storage: This project will provide in -line storage of combined sewer flows in the existing Bird Avenue line that will be released after a storm event for subsequent treatment at the WWTP. • Hagen Street Storage: This project will provide in -line storage of combined sewer flows in the existing Hagen Street line that will be released after a storm event for subsequent treatment at the WWTP. An RFP was developed and advertised to provide design services for the RTC functionality. The BSA is currently negotiating the contract, and design /construction will begin in 2012, with all work completed by late 2013. The BSA will assess the effectiveness of RTCs based on the post - construction monitoring results." While the BSA addresses our concerns by stating that the Bird Avenue and Lang Avenue plans were "established and finalized projects" it is clear from the 2012 LTCP plan that the projects were in fact still being designed. (Note this location of Hagen Street was moved to nearby Lang Ave due to constructability issues indentified on Hagen Street) The BSA's SEQRA review of the plan also describes the Bird and Lang Avenue projects as incomplete plans. As per the SEQRA review filed on 7/18/2012: Scope of SEQRAReAew . The review of the .Action under SEQRA is limited solely to those elements of the LTCP Update that have been established and finalized. The potential flat-pre aspects of the LTCP' Update are not part of the Action, and therefore, are not part of the SEQRA review undertaken, for the Action. As discussed more fully below, the segmentation of future aspects of the Plan tom the SEQRA. review of the Action is necessary, permissible and will be no less protective of the Environment. Additional SEQRA documentation further clarifies the scope of the review. The first paragraph of the, Notice of Determination of No 3fignificant Effect on the Environment, states that "specific construction projects and other actions recommended by the LTCP, to the extent required by Regulations, will be subject to further SEQRA review when they are more defined and designed." Section 4 of this document (Action Description), describes the core components of the project. The last sentence of this section addresses the proposed 19 year period to implement the plan stating, "this will allow sufficient time for the BSA to develop and analyze GI and RTC pilot programs." Despite the BSA acknowledgment, that the RTC programs have yet to be designed and developed and that the requisite environmental review has not been performed, major construction on Bird Avenue in currently underway. The Notice of Determination of No Significant Effect on the Environment, further goes on to state the agency has appropriately engaged in a coordinated review of the project, that there will be no adverse impact and therefore an Environmental Impact Study is not required. This determination (7/18/12) comes a full year before the Bird Ave and Lang Ave projects are actually sent out for bid (8/2013). In other words, the BSA has determined that retaining sewage under our streets will not impact the health of our neighborhood before having actually designed and developed the project and without having done an Environmental impact Study. Where the prepared SEQRA review addresses impact, the focuses remains on the overall plan and the environmental impact for the receiving bodies of water. Overall, the measures that have been completed to date, and that will be designed and implemented in the future, will serve to improve and enhance water quality within the BSA.'s jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Action will not result in any significant adverse impacts to ground or surface water quality or quantity. Where the prepared SEQRA review addresses impact at construction sites such as Bird and Lang Avenue, repeatedly criteria responses indicated that elements of the LTCP have yet to be finalized. For example: measures "that will be designed and implemented in the future," (pg 8), "as noted above, future components of the LTCP have yet to be designed ", (traffic levels pg 8), "while future components of the LTPC have yet to be designed, the types of projects e.g. GI and gray infrastructure...... "(noise pg 9) "while the majority of these projects have not yet been designed" (noise pg 9) "However, future components of the LTCP Update will be designed ", (erosion, flooding, leaching and drainage pg 9), "construction projects considered as part of the Action will require further evaluation on a project by project basis as future elements of the Plan are designed and finalized." (Criterion 2, pgs 9 & 10), "The BSA.,...in designing future components." (Criterion 3 pg 10). In the end the BSA's SEQRA review negates the environmental concerns of the individual neighborhoods when they assert no adverse impact based on the goals and objective for the receiving bodies of water only.
