Read the record

The checked chain discusses Schwaab’s proposed Placemate approach. Penn questions whether the incentive is sufficient and then invites him to bring the proposal forward.

What it establishes

Issue-specific support for exploring an incentive, countering assumption all correspondents uniformly opposed such programs.

Limits and context

This is interest in exploring a proposal, not adoption, funding, a vendor endorsement or proof of housing effects. A copied Councilor’s agreement cannot be inferred.
