With this new program, local zoning ordinances would be non-factors.Additionally, union pensions would be funded through the AFL-CIO Housing Investment Trust. Financing for these projects would come from tools already in place for funding mixed-income developments, like low-cost bond financing, the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit, existing subsidies from the New York City Housing Development Corp., the city Department of Housing Preservation and Development, municipal housing finance programs throughout the state, the state Housing Finance Agency and capital grants from government agencies.Additionally, they will remain accessible and be permanently affordable, allowing for long lasting stability and middle-class perpetuity. The housing authorized by this program will stabilize and retain the middle-class communities in which they are built.
Additionally, the homes will be developed for residents earning between 30-130% AMI to avoid gentrification.
With the housing being built on vacant land, there will be no concerns about displacement by use of eminent domain or harassment of tenants in existing developments. With aggressive community outreach and the promotion of apprenticeship programs, residents will have opportunities to participate in rebuilding their community and pursue an accessible family-sustaining middle-class career in unionized construction. In addition to new housing options, the creation of thousands of good paying union careers will foster further economic stimulus. These developments will be built utilizing 100% union labor. This will allow for New Generation Mitchell-Lama to improve upon the original program in several ways: If you are a rent-stabilized tenant, you are prohibited from charging a roommate more than a proportionate share of the rent.First, the state should utilize some of vacant portions of its current lands (like CUNY, SUNY and hospital campuses, abandoned correctional facilities, existing leaseholds, etc.) in a public/private partnership with experienced and reliable real estate developers capable of constructing 100% workforce housing for New York residents on land leased to them for 99 years, but remaining in ownership of the state. However, it doesn't say anything about Mitchell Lama, and it goes on to say things like: Check your program’s guidelines before taking in household members. Also, bringing in a roommate may make your income too high to remain eligible for the program. Failure to accurately report this income can be a serious violation of the program's rules and could lead to termination of the program as well as legal actions. Most programs require that you report what the roommate pays in rent as part of your income. There are additional considerations if you receive a rent subsidy (such as Section 8 or FEPS) or a rent exemption (such as SCRIE or DRIE), or if your rent is based on your income. if two or more people have signed the lease, and your lease does not expressly give you permission to live with an additional person. you live in public housing or most subsidized housing, or. You do not have a right to a roommate if: Then you have the right to share your apartment with one other adult not related to you, and that person’s dependent children. If you are the only person who signed your lease (for rent control: if you are the only tenant of record), If you live in a privately owned building, and 
I did find the following reference which stated this: New York State has a law that says that landlords cannot prevent tenants from having a roommate.ĭoes this apply to the Mitchell Lama housing program?
