Town Hall: Green New Deal for Housing
Start: Tuesday, April 30, 2024•06:30 PM
Lack of affordable housing is displacing New Yorkers at an alarming rate across the state, including here in the Hudson Valley, and handouts to for-profit developers have brought us nowhere close to addressing the crisis. While we work on immediate solutions, such as passing Good Cause Eviction to protect tenants from price-gouging and changing zoning laws that restrict options for affordable housing, we must also create a state social housing development authority that uses union labor to build permanently affordable, green, and high quality housing that caps housing cost at 25% of income, reinvesting the benefits back into New Yorkers.
Join us on April 30th, Tuesday, at 6:30pm, for a presentation on how the Social Housing bill (A09088) will do just that. Please RSVP to get updates, and be advised that doors will open at 6:00pm!
