I red his letter and his recommendations are quite good. Especially his concern regarding the fact that "the proposed scope of the EIS too narrowly defines qualyfing sites" and hence should be broaden. One could argue about his stance on hotels development but it makes sense regarding the primary goal of the rezoning.

I am glad also to learn that he voted with the bloomberg's administration 91% of the time. I can now say that I am 91% reassured

Thanks a lot for this precise and detailed answer. It couldn't be clearer.
