THIELE -- Multi-Sponsored by -- M. of A. SALADINO -- read once and referred to the Committee on Housing AN ACT to amend the private housing finance law, in relation to creating the "Peconic Bay region workforce housing opportunity act" THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. This act may be cited as the "Peconic Bay region workforce housing opportunity act". S 2. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds that critical to the future of the Peconic Bay region is the need to protect community stability by providing for an adequate supply of workforce housing opportunities for all segments of the Peconic Bay community. The adverse impacts from the lack of housing opportunities are crit- ical. For example, local employers have difficulty hiring and retaining employees because of housing costs and availability. Local volunteer emergency services agencies experience difficulty in recruitment and retention. Long time residents are forced to leave the area. Traffic congestion is exacerbated by the importation of labor from areas with lower housing costs. Finally, the lack of affordable housing is result- ing in residents being forced to live in substandard, illegal condi- tions. Unique demographics and economics in the Peconic Bay region, and a lack of affordable dwelling units, are creating this housing shortage. The combination of the Peconic Bay region's attractiveness, proximity to the dense population of the New York metropolitan region, and proximity to that region's extraordinary wealth, makes the Peconic Bay region a prime location for seasonal and luxury homes. While this combination of extraordinary attractiveness, population and wealth has created a strong local economy for the Peconic Bay region, it has resulted in housing problems for local families. In the Peconic Bay region, 37% of all housing units are seasonal. The population of the EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
