Housing Positions and Proposals
- Build more housing across all income levels. Increasing the supply of housing is essential to stabilizing and ultimately reducing rents, as well as creating the workforce housing that cannot be built by the private sector alone.
- Leverage public land for housing development. Identify and redevelop underutilized city-owned lots for affordable and mixed-income housing.
- Improve the quality of life in NYCHA Housing. We can improve the quality of life in NYCHA Housing while working with tenants to explore redevelopment in a way that increases the supply of housing. We will include resident input and leadership in every decision we make regarding NYCHA.
- Protect renters and keep families in their homes. Enhance enforcement of rent-stabilization laws to prevent illegal rent hikes and landlord harassment. Ensure that every tenant facing eviction has counsel in housing court to reduce evictions that result in homelessness.
