For years, housing has dominated conversations about growth across the Finger Lakes. But what happens when communities are finally ready to build and discover they don't have enough power to support it?
In Episode 2 of In Focus, I sit down with Ontario County Economic Development Director Ryan Davis and MRB Group's Matt Horn to explore the increasingly complicated relationship between housing, economic development, and energy infrastructure. What starts as a conversation about building homes quickly becomes a deeper look at aging electrical systems, utility investment, local planning, and the hidden barriers slowing growth across Upstate New York.
It's a discussion about a problem that touches nearly every community in the region — and one that may ultimately determine what the future of growth looks like in the Finger Lakes.
