NYC MULTIFAMILY LANDLORDS FACING LOOMING LOCAL LAW 97 DECARBONIZATION DEADLINE MUST RECONCILE TECHNICAL, FINANCIAL AND POLITICAL FACTORS

"My colleagues and I have worked to eliminate on-site fossil fuel use in designing projects for many years. Solar arrays are now standard on multifamily buildings where roofs aren’t used for recreation. These renewable energy initiatives actually started in response to the delays and headaches of getting new gas service hookups. More recently we are seeing utility companies upgrading their grids to help meet the demand of fully electrified new buildings. Other applicable technology includes heat pumps, once considered an expensive luxury, but are increasingly commonplace, as well as the convenience and comfort of room specific temperature controls that outweigh any esthetic issues of such systems," Aufgang pointed out.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN NEW YORK: A PRIMER

Emerging from the city’s closure after the first year of COVID-19, New York now finds itself facing an ongoing and more severe problem: the lack of affordable housing. With unemployment at 10.6% and jobs having evaporated during the pandemic, there is an even greater need for low-income housing. The typical New Yorker is already rent burdened, spending 50% or more of his or her income on housing—far beyond the recommended 30%. Eight years ago, Mayor Bill de Blasio called for an end to the “tale of two cities” economic disparity, but according to a study by the digital news platform The City, there is now a 700:1 ratio of NYC Housing Lottery applicants to openings for low-income apartments in New York, with the Coalition for the Homeless reporting 51,000 people in shelters every night as of June 2021.
