MMPC REPORT – ROCHESTER, NEW YORK the Joint Meeting Of
MMPC REPORT – ROCHESTER, NEW YORK The Joint Meeting of Ichthyology and Herpetology (JMIH) Meeting Management and Planning Committee (MMPC) met 12 - 14 April 2018 in Rochester, New York. Committee members: Marty Crump (Program Officer), Marlis Douglas, David Green, Henry Mushinsky (Chair), Kyle Piller, and Dustin Siegel. Cara Richardson (Kansas State University) arranged the meeting. While we will miss the American Elasmobranch Society (AES) at JMIH 2018, we are happy to report that the Canadian Herpetological Society (CHS) will be joining the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists (ASIH), the Herpetologists’ League (HL), and the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles (SSAR) in Rochester. Getting to Rochester is not difficult and numerous airlines fly to the Greater Rochester International Airport from all over the United States, and a few international locations. If you plan to drive, take note that interstate 90 through New York is a toll road so be sure to bring cash/change or you will be forced to visit the ATM at a service stop along the route. It is possible to bypass the tolls by taking alternative routes but these may slow your travel. The Rochester Riverside Hotel provides a free shuttle service that will take you to the hotel – a short distance from the airport. Use the courtesy phone in the baggage claim area to schedule a pick-up upon arriving. If waiting on a shuttle is not your cup of tea, you might consider Uber or a taxi for the 7.1 mile journey. The short taxi ride however is $24.00, so we don't recommend it.

Rochester Public Market – Master Plan
CONCEPTUAL RENDERING INTERIOR OF RENOVATED SHED B ROCHESTER PUBLIC MARKET LOOKING EAST MASTER PLAN REPORT Rochester Public Market Renovations and Expansion to Wintershed Facility Master Plan Report - Executive Summary Introduction In January 2011, the City of Rochester Department of Environmental Services, Bureau of Architecture and Engineering retained a professional services and design team led by T.Y. Lin International, with PLAN Architectural Studio and Market Ventures Inc., to prepare a Master Plan and Schematic Design for comprehensive renovations and expansion of the Rochester Public Market Wintershed. The Wintershed (referred to as Shed B) is an enclosed facility of approximately 10,500 sf constructed in 1978, that exhibits deficiencies with regards to code compliance, vendor stall sizes, circulation, transparency & visibility, plumbing and HVAC. This report is the result of the collective efforts of the information gathered from multiple sources over a one-year period, outlining recommendations to accomplish the following goals set forth by the City of Rochester, the project team, and stakeholders of the Rochester Public Market (RPM): 1. Create an active market district throughout the week and year 2. Serve a wide range of customers, including low income families 3. Create expanded, modern enclosed facilities that meet the needs of current and future vendors, as well as the public (including additional restrooms) 4. Develop facilities for events and educational programming 5. Ensure operational continuity for current vendors

The Short History of the Rochester Fast Ferry
The Short History of the Rochester Fast Ferry. By Dick Halsey Updated 2015 The Short History of the Rochester Fast Ferry In 1998 Mayor Bill Johnson and the Rochester Common Council proposed a ferry running between Rochester and Toronto. Mayor Johnson knew that he would need support from various other government leaders. That proved to be difficult and would take a few years. In February 1999, the Mayor is quoted as saying "This is an exciting opportunity for the City of Rochester..." "Roughly 41 million Canadians visit the United States each year. We want to make sure that Rochester will be an easy, accessible and exciting business and tourist destination that more Canadian citizens will take advantage of. The Fast Ferry will enable this to happen." In 2000 the City Council issued a request for proposals to run the Port and two ferries from 39 prospective operators. Only four companies replied with their qualifications and interest. From this the City asked two companies to submit written proposals. Only Canadian American Transportation Systems (CATS) responded and the City decided to proceed. In late June 2001 CATS updated their budget and announced that they would only be purchasing one ferry for $42.5 million from Austal in Australia. In the meantime, in July 2001, Congress approved $3.5 million in funding to help build a new ferry terminal in the Port of Rochester. Then in September City Council approved a lease with CATS to run the Port building. Work began to get money to start up the ferry. A large amount of the money was to come from Australian lenders.
