To All Builders, Developers and Land Owners!
RARE OPPORTUNITY

On September 22nd, the Westchester County Board of Legislators approved a settlement in a fair housing lawsuit. As part of this settlement, Westchester County has committed to build 750 units of affordable housing in 31 municipalities. The units can be rental or ownership.

This presents an opportunity for developers and land owners to get County assistance in obtaining municipal approvals of development projects in these communities.

If you have land, development proposals or existing buildings that you feel may be a possibility for such housing and wish to consider making all or some of the units affordable, in conjunction with the County’s Settlement obligations, please contact the Builders Institute of Westchester with the following information:

• If you have vacant land…
• If you have development proposals pending…
• If you have existing units...
• Accessory apartments, small multi-family houses a possibility too!

The Builders Institute will consolidate all responses from interested owners and developers and submit them to the County for consideration. This is an opportunity to jump start the difficult housing development market and land use approval process in Westchester County.
