The problem with this staff estimate is that it assumes every single new employee would be put in leased space and the city would not try to find more favorable leasing space at lower costs. #ralpol https://t.co/1p2apR22f1

For me, it’s going to be hard to justify building a state of the art 20 story tower that will cost at $190 million when that money could make a real dent in the affordable housing need in Raleigh and help struggling families. #ralpol pic.twitter.com/u9snIgVSCU

Our buildings just aren’t close enough to the end of their useful life at this point to justify this very expensive plan that has been brought forward, especially given the growing needs of our citizens. #ralpol
