Responding to the survey were 158 business, community, and government leaders in Western New York。 Higgins earned the highest rating of any political leader, with a 3.81 out of a possible score of 5。 The Buffalo News wrote of Higgins, "During his 5 1/2 years on the Council, he has earned a reputation as a thoughtful, soft-spoken lawmaker who has paid attention to both district and citywide concerns."。 One community leader said, "Brian is a very bright, responsible public official," while a government leader said of Higgins, "The best Councilman in Buffalo. Has great vision."。
