"He campaigned on making New York a City of Yes that would encourage and expedite housing production and economic recovery. To that end, in its first year the administration set an ambitious goal of creating 500,000 new homes by 2032 and released its Get Stuff Built report, recommending ways to improve and streamline approvals through the Department of Buildings, the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR), and the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP)."
"These recommendations have resulted in the Department of Buildings' Major Projects Development Program, to facilitate review, permitting and approval of large or complex projects, the Green Fast Track, which exempts certain small- and medium-sized housing proposals from CEQR, changes to the Department of City Planning's pre-ULURP application review process to generally require submission of only one draft application instead of multiple drafts, and, most notably, the recently-passed ballot proposals for revisions to the city charter to exempt several categories of affordable housing proposals from ULURP."
The Adams administration reported creating, preserving, or planning roughly 426,800 homes for New Yorkers during its term and for the next 15 years, including at least 250,000 affordable units. The administration set a goal of 500,000 new homes by 2032 and issued the Get Stuff Built recommendations to speed approvals through the Department of Buildings, CEQR, and ULURP. Resulting measures include the Major Projects Development Program, the Green Fast Track CEQR exemptions, streamlined pre-ULURP application requirements, and charter ballot proposals to exempt some affordable housing from ULURP. An Office Conversion Accelerator was launched to support office-to-residential conversions and permitting.
