BILL NUMBER: S8488

SPONSOR: KAVANAGH
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the public housing law, in relation to an affordable
housing five-year capital plan

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

To require a five-year capital spending plan for New York State Homes &
Community Renewal (HCR) for the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2022,
and every fifth fiscal year thereafter.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Sec. 1 adds a new section 20-a to public housing law.  Subsection 1
requires that, for the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2022, and every
fifth fiscal year thereafter, the governor shall submit a statewide,
comprehensive five-year capital plan to the Legislature to support the
development, preservation and capital improvement of affordable housing

in New York State.

Subsection 2 sets forth minimum requirements for the spending plan
proposal and requires that such proposal be developed in consultation
with the relevant state agencies.

Subsection 3 stipulates that semi-annually after the enactment of a
five-year plan, HCR must submit and make publicly available information
summarizing the activities undertaken using the funding made available
in the enacted plan.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

As the State reaches the close of its five-year affordable and support-
ive housing plans, there is a growing uncertainty among developers of
these much-needed units about the future of projects still in conception
and in the pipeline, many of which could be abandoned without the prom-
ise of available funding in coming years. A five-year capital plan with
annual appropriations for critical programs would provide the State's
affordable housing providers with the ability to plan and continue their
vital work to meet the affordable housing needs of New York State's
residents.

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:

To be determined.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
One year after enactment.
