NYS has a new pilot program for legalizing basement apts in 15 nyc community districts (h/t @JonCampbellNY), but it won’t apply to the areas that need it the most. e.g. 8 of the 11 people who died in basements during Ida wouldn’t have been eligible. 1/6 thecity.nyc/2024/04/29/bas…
cypress hills & east ny, where there’s a city pilot for conversions, was also excluded, as @DavidFBrand pointed out it’s important bc it was too cost-prohibitive for homeowners there to legalize basements without changes in state laws, he wrote. 5/6 tinyurl.com/7njefn79

NYS has a new pilot program for legalizing basement apts in 15 nyc community districts (h/t @JonCampbellNY), but it won’t apply to the areas that need it the most. e.g. 8 of the 11 people who died in basements during Ida wouldn’t have been eligible. 1/6 thecity.nyc/2024/04/29/bas…
btw, SE queens got more vacate orders for illegal occupancies over the last year than anywhere else in nyc not all illegal occupancies have to do with basements, but advocates say it roughly points to the needs there. 4/6
cypress hills & east ny, where there’s a city pilot for conversions, was also excluded, as @DavidFBrand pointed out it’s important bc it was too cost-prohibitive for homeowners there to legalize basements without changes in state laws, he wrote. 5/6 tinyurl.com/7njefn79
