Opposed selling the Historic Federal Building to fund the purchase because it houses the post office, and questioned the proposed sale and relocation disruptions.

Questioned the building's stated value versus its $1.6 million assessment, urged thorough inspections including vaults and HVAC, and asked where $1.8 million purchase and $1.7 million renovation funds come from.
