S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 4040 2019-2020 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E February 26, 2019 ___________ Introduced by Sen. LAVALLE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government AN ACT to amend the town law and the tax law, in relation to authorizing towns in the Peconic Bay region to establish community housing funds to be funded by a supplemental real estate transfer tax THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature hereby finds that critical to the future of the Peconic Bay region is the need for an adequate supply of housing opportunities for all segments of the Peconic Bay community. The adverse impact resulting from the lack of housing opportunities is severe. Local employers are having difficulty hiring and retaining employees because of housing costs and availability. Local volunteer emergency services agencies are experiencing difficulty in recruitment and retention. Long-time residents are forced to leave the area. Traf- fic congestion is intensified by the importation of labor from areas with lower housing costs. Finally, the lack of housing opportunities is resulting in residents being forced to live in substandard, illegal conditions. The unique demographics and economics in the Peconic Bay region and a lack of affordable dwelling units are contributing to this housing shor- tage. The combination of the Peconic Bay region's attractiveness, prox- imity to the dense population of the New York metropolitan region and 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 density, and wealth has created a strong local economy for the Peconic Bay region, it has resulted in a housing crisis for local families. In the Peconic Bay region, more than 40% of all housing units are seasonal. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD03159-04-9
