 and she also serves on the San Antonio Housing Authority Board of Commissioners, thank you. Mayor Nuremberg, we know the mayor. And soon after being elected mayor in 2017, he created the Mayor's Housing Policy Task Force, a five member group that led dozens of public discussions and town hall meetings about housing affordability. And in August, 2018, Task Force released its report that laid out a framework for how San Antonio should tackle its housing. And then finally, Lori Houston. Lori Houston is Assistant City Manager who oversees the Center City Development and Operations Department, which oversees the city's incentive policy. And she also oversees the Neighborhood and Housing Services Department, which oversees a plethora of programs that are sort of designed to keep people in their homes and as well as help people with eviction debt and stuff like that. So the first question, I wanted to start us off. I wanna ask the panelists, what is your vision for the central part of San Antonio? Yes, downtown, but also the neighborhoods, because they're all sort of joined together. What happens downtown impacts the neighborhoods. And to y'all, what sort of your perfect sort of the way downtown evolves from here in the next five, 10 or 15 years? And Mayor, if you wanna kind of start us off on that. Sure, and thank you, Ben and Heron, for having us today, panelists, as well as everyone who's attending today. I think this is a very diverse audience. I can tell by folks I've visited with, multitude of perspectives on housing, so this will be a very interesting discussion. My view on downtown is really derived from how we talked about downtown in SA 2020, which 10 years ago kind of laid out the community's vision for how we wanted to see San Antonio develop over the next 10 years up to the year we're living in right now. And primarily it is a recognition that downtown is a vibrant place where people can live and work. That is once again, kind of the heartbeat of San Antonio. And as we've seen that kind of develop over the last 10 years through incentive policies that have really started to see development pick up and the cranes in the air and the new jobs coming in and the lots of new development, housing development, which now is over 7,000 units, we've started to tweak or perhaps add more description to that vision. And one of them is that downtown needs to play a place where everyone can thrive. That it's a place where it doesn't require to be, require you to be of a certain income bracket. This is a place.
