The City of Rochester is expanding a program designed to increase the number of owner-occupants living in the city. The CHOICE program was originally designed for downtown living opportunities, but not the city wants to take the program to all parts of Rochester.

- Rachel Barnhart, member of the Monroe County Legislature
- Matthew Denker, developer with LBLD Living
- Blake Gianniny, principal at FGB Property
