Notable quotes: “I do believe, I would like to believe, that we all have the same desire to live in a safe, clean, vibrant community. However what I’ve learned is we don’t all share the same vision as to how to get there. (Source: Tracy Press)
“People don’t see a way to spend their dollars here. They don’t see a way to spend their quality time here, because we’re focused on housing, and we’re focused on warehousing, but we’re not focused on quality of life overall.” (Source: Tracy Press)
