“Yes.”</p><p>A City Council subcommittee on Thursday approved Mayor Eric Adams’ plan to build 80,000 new homes over the next 15 years, lowering the cost of rent for New Yorkers amid one of the worst housing crises in city history. Dubbed “City of Yes for Housing Opportunity,” the rezoning proposal aims to spur the creation of affordable housing in all five boroughs, along with upgrades to critical infrastructure. The approval by the City Council Subcommittee on Zoning and Franchises and Committee on Land Use was secured following a $5 billion pledge from the city and state.</p><p>According to the city, the proposal exceeds the housing creation total of all rezonings pushed out by the administrations of Michael Bloomberg and Bill de Blasio.</p><p>“Thanks to our shared commitment in building critically needed housing, we have reached an agreement on a historic plan that could open the doors to a little more housing in every neighborhood in our city,” Adams said in a statement on Thursday. “If passed, New York City will once again serve as a model to the nation on government’s infinite ability to take challenges head on, set forth a bold agenda, and get the job done.”</p><p>The plan, <a href="https://newyorkyimby.com/2024/05/public-review-process-begins-for-city-of-yes-for-housing-opportunity-proposal.html">first announced in April</a>, originally sought to facilitate more than 100,000 new housing units. It also included provisions for lifting the parking space requirement for new residential construction, which developers claim adds an undue cost burden, and for unrestricting property owners’ ability to create accessory dwelling units in spaces like basements, attics, and garages.</p><p>Thursday’s amended proposal involved concessions on all three points. Rather than dropping the parking requirement wholesale, it will instead divide it into three zones, preserving the mandate in boroughs like Staten Island and Queens where local lawmakers deemed it necessary. Further, accessory dwelling creation will remain restricted in many areas, particularly in historic districts and flood zones, but will be permitted in transit-proximate areas.</p><p>Despite the more than 20-percent reduction in its overall housing creation goal, the plan nevertheless marks the most significant improvement to the city’s zoning structure since 1961 and is poised to deliver much-needed breathing room to a rental market stifled by a razor-thin 1.4 percent vacancy rate.</p><p>Council members’ support for the proposal hinged on the provision of $4 billion from the Adams administration and the last-minute pledge by Governor Kathy Hochul to earmark another $1 billion of state funds from the 2025 budget, according to a report by Bloomberg.</p><p>“New York has a housing affordability crisis and there’s only one way out: build more housing,” Hochul said in a statement. “Now, we’re adding a $1 billion state commitment to support affordable housing in New York City. We need all hands on deck to build more housing and make New York more affordable for all of us.”</p><p>The Adams administration’s share of the contributions includes $1 billion for housing capital, $2 billion for infrastructure projects, and $1 billion in expense funding to cover tenant protection, voucher assistance, neighborhood planning, and more. If approved in the state budget, Governor Hochul’s commitment will provide $1 billion in housing capital over the next five years.</p><p>Following this week’s approval, the proposal will now go to a vote before the full City Council in December.</p><p> <a href="http://eepurl.com/c7JhDj"><strong>Subscribe</strong></a> to YIMBY’s daily e-mail<br /> <br /> <a href="https://instagram.com/yimbygram" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>Follow</strong></a> YIMBYgram for real-time photo updates<br /> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/YIMBYFB"><strong>Like</strong></a> YIMBY on Facebook<br /> <a href="https://twitter.com/yimbytweets" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>Follow</strong></a> YIMBY’s Twitter for the latest in YIMBYnews</p><nav class="breadcrumb"><span><a href="https://www.newyorkyimby.com/category/feature-2" rel="category tag">Feature</a> <a href="https://www.newyorkyimby.com/category/features" rel="category tag">Features</a></span></nav></div></article><div class="mh-share-buttons mh-group"><div class="mh-col mh-1-4 mh-facebook"> <a href="#" onclick="window.open('//www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.newyorkyimby.com/2024/11/landmark-city-of-yes-housing-creation-plan-approved-with-5-billion-push.html&t=Landmark ‘City of Yes’ Housing Creation Plan Approved with $5 Billion Push', 'facebookShare', 'width=626,height=436');

forgot to mention in your grossly biased post that the 80,000 “homes” is only 20% of the housing that will be developed, 80% will be for market rate apartments, it’s still the same horrendous housing plan set forth by Bloomberg and de Blasio, who like the currently indicted mayor Adams, almost got indicted himself for accepting bribes and giving access to real estate lobbyists to influence housing policies</p><p>Speaking of 80%, you also didn’t mention how that’s going to be the lowest qualifying AMI, so hundreds of thousands of working class rent burdened people still won’t have a chance to get a new affordable place to live where they can save money an build wealth, but the City Of Yes only assures developers and venture capital/hedge fund investors can only do that.</p><p>Oh one more

It means affordable only in the strict sense of cheaper than the mostly unaffordable housing in the city.<br /> Genuinely affordable housing is hard to pin down, but most housing advocates seem to settle around 50%-60% AMI, with some units going as low as 30% AMI.<br /> Of course, this is only RENTAL units. There is no current affordable plan for condos/co-ops, though I just yesterday proposed one to my former CM and current head of the Dept. of City Planning Dan Garodnick, whom I met to discuss my company’s proposal for the RiverArch (look it up on Youtube – >10,000 views to date). We couldn’t get the land, but the RAMP plan could work elsewhere too. The RAMP – Reduced Apartment Maintenance & Purchase (and taxes) – plan would cut all those by 50% from market rate, permanently, legally enforceable through future sales. This would produce 60% AMI in the RiverArch, possibly as low as 50% elsewhere. It would be the first affordable option for condos.</p></div></div></li><!-- #comment-## --></ul><!-- .children --></li><!-- #comment-## --><li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="li-comment-668092"><div id="comment-668092"><div class="vcard meta"> Scott | <a href="https://www.newyorkyimby.com/2024/11/landmark-city-of-yes-housing-creation-plan-approved-with-5-billion-push.html#comment-668092">November 23, 2024 at 7:54 pm</a> | <a rel='nofollow' class='comment-reply-link' href='https://www.newyorkyimby.com/2024/11/landmark-city-of-yes-housing-creation-plan-approved-with-5-billion-push.html?replytocom=668092#respond' data-commentid="668092" data-postid="1965295" data-belowelement="comment-668092" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Scott" aria-label='Reply to Scott'>Reply</a></div><div class="comment-text"><p>The watered down plan is bad.
