From the transcript

Uh, there is a, a domino effect of precedent. What happened on Angler Drive with guide, uh, businesses, uh, may happen on Ash Avenue with Airbnbs. Ash Avenue needs the city's protection and rejuvenation of its livability for families under Goal 1 of the comprehensive plan, not Airbnbs. At present, there is a burnt-out house and a vacant house. Uh, both used to have families with children.
