How do you plan to excerscise your executive power to help commercial and industrial land owners? From Niagra to downtown NYC there is a glut of unused and not needed space. Much of it sitting vacant due to greedy landlords. What plans, if any, are there to help alleviate zoning/permits etc to help use the space in more helpful ways to create more mixed use space to make areas more livable and less dependent upon commuting? Or movement towards a vacancy tax so that there is not as much incentive for physical property to sit idle leading towards the undesirable conditions we see today.

Swagger isn't ending wfh nor do the people want it meaning that there is a fundamental change afoot in this landscape. We continue to lose high earners to other states but people still want to live here. Why? Because of culture. What are we going to do to help energize and 'double down' on this strength for greatest state in the nation?

(I hate rent seeking behavior however our society is intertwined with it so we gotta do our best to work with it 🤮)
