During their one-on-one conversation, Gene speaks with Mayor Keller about the city’s ‘Housing Forward’ initiative and questions how the city fell so far behind on housing. Gene also asks if the plan to create 5,000 new rental units in the next two years is feasible. The mayor addresses the ongoing back-and-forth on safe outdoor spaces and comments on his relationship with City Council given recent disagreements on homelessness issues.
