HOUSING
IF WE REIMAGINE THE FUNDING HRA USES FOR SHELTERS AND HOTEL ROOMS, WE CAN PROVIDE VOUCHERS AND SERVICES TO HOUSE EVERYONE. WE COULD ALSO USE SOME OF THE FUNDING TO IMPROVE THE LIVING CONDITIONS IN NYCHA DEVELOPMENTS.

​WE ARE NOT TAKING DONATIONS FROM ANYONE WITH OWNERSHIP STAKE IN REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT COMPANIES OR LOBBYISTS THAT REPRESENT THEM. NOT ONLY IS IT A BLATANT CONFLICT OF INTEREST

• WE WILL PUSH FOR AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP ON ANY RESIDENTIAL BUILDING THAT IS BUILT ON CITY OWNED LAND.
• WE WILL PUSH DEVELOPERS TO BUILD COMMUNITY CENTERS AND COMMERCIAL BUSINESS SPACE WITH ANY NEW PROJECTS THAT NEED OUR APPROVAL. 
• WE WILL MAKE SURE NOT TO APPROVE ANY PROJECT THAT DOESN'T HAVE ROOM FOR EVERY INCOME LEVEL, SO THAT OUR NEIGHBORS DON'T GET PUSHED OUT.
• WE WILL FIGHT FOR NYC TO INCREASE THE VALUE OF HOUSING VOUCHERS. 
• I WILL ADVOCATE FOR NYC TO CONTRIBUTE MORE TO A PLAN FOR FULLY FUNDING NYCHA REPAIRS. 
• WE WILL ADVOCATE FOR COMMUNITY LAND TRUSTS TO BE INVOLVED IN THE LONG TERM HOUSING PLAN OF THE CITY. 
• WE WILL ALLOW COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO HAVE A REAL SAY IN WHAT COMES TO THEIR COMMUNITY.
