John Sasso in Morningside Drive. First of all, sounds great. A lot of it. There isn't a person in Croton who wouldn't love to see things paid for by the state that they decide needs to be done. I have an idea about one I can just put out there. There…

John Sasso, Morningside Drive. I'm not gonna remind you that we have the only dog park that closes at 04:00 on weekends in Westchester County, and explanation of that is beyond. I live on Morningside Drive. Houses are close together, and we talk abou…

So I would think you ought to consider moving it up. And the other final thing I have, I guess it was about a year ago when the proposal for we all know that dispensaries are allowed now in New York and all across the country. And it was proposed to …

One was Port Chester, which was you know, that was really a turnaround story on how a kind of declining you know, I'll call it a city, that is at least what it is to me, was in decline and how, you know, development and, you know, riverfront revitali…

And we know you didn't have time to get together and talk about any of this because our hope was once we knew that the decision laid just with Brian, we wanted to have the trustees who represent the community to have input and perhaps sway the decisi…
