Want every word White has said?
The OpenCity MCP for Claude.ai answers questions like “what has White said about housing this year” with one prompt — full speaking history, with YouTube timestamps.
Top issues during term (20)(Development)
Clinton Crossing concept site plan
The city has $11 million invested in the site and expects to recover it through a 20-year TIF plus land sale proceeds — the First & Main precedent recovered less than its full cost.
Clinton Crossing downtown redevelopment financing
Consultants say the project should recoup the city's costs through TIF over 20-30 years, and more units could generate extra tax revenue for public space.
Hudson's Restaurant sidewalk patio and downtown parking
A significant private investment in the restaurant's facade and patio, with some patio parking spaces potentially lost pending council action.
Standard Shop Company industrial park approval expiration
A performance bond remains in place for outstanding items; landscaping budget cited at $20,000–$30,000.
Downtown Phase II property financing (Owen Brown Street)
A multi-unit residential project of this size could add housing and property tax base near downtown.
Prestige Agreement
Commissioners see little financial risk to the city from an appeal judgment, but the settlement's terms remain undisclosed.
PNC Bank renovation at 37 S. Main Street
Retaining slate-style roofing instead of metal could add cost to the bank's renovation.
Future use of the Stokes/Steidl property
A full recreation facility could cost tens of millions; a phased outdoor pool concept discussed was around $8-9 million.
Proposed day care facility (Case 2026-916)
The applicant would be responsible for any required street and intersection modifications.
18-unit townhome development (Case 2026-945)
Estimated site-work cost is about $600,000; trail funds may be allocated in place of unbuilt land.
Three-story townhome density debate at 586 Owen Brown Street
The developer says tens of millions of dollars in investment hinge on the project's viability, and a denial could leave the defunct industrial building standing for years.
179 Elm Street demolition in the Historic District
A teardown-and-rebuild could raise the property's value and tax bill, but no public cost is involved.
Village Dental Site Plan Approval
No city cost; a private investment bringing a new business to town.
WRA Wang Innovation Center Addition
Laurel Lake Villas New House Project
Demolition of a 1920s Garage on East Streetsboro Street
Proposed Public Safety and Arts Commissions
Demolition of 1953 house at 1731 Norton Road
41 E. Main Street commercial addition
201 N. Main Street demolition and rebuild
