He spoke about how the challenge of the city auditor is to be a watchdog and an advocate for the city of Albany. He wants to make sure city government is doing more with less and being more efficient. He says he will help Albany's next mayor to hold the line on taxes and not put more of a burden on residents.

He spoke about how Albany has over 1,000 vacant buildings and lots and no comprehensive plan to fix this. Fein says we have to get these lots back on the tax rolls and revitalize those neighborhoods. He says since we offer tax breaks to developers, we should give tax incentives to individuals who want to buy a property in their neighborhood and fix it up.
