Local goverments merely need to not offer one dime in tax abatements and drastically increase the tax rate on new multifamily dwellings and the problem will solve itself.
It is too expensive to build on Long Island. No builder is putting in complexes or buildings without generous tax breaks.
Yep. Nothing to worry about. The idiot apparently didn't take into consideration that aside from a few shopping malls here and there, there are few available plots to build anything on.
Why don’t these people understand that this is an island. There is only so much land available. The roads, railways & infrastructure just can’t handle a mass building spree.

Do they think the reason for people leaving NY is just due to housing? Job opportunities, lower taxes, less onerous rules are the main reasons people are leaving the state.
So NY will force multifamily "affordable" housing which will basically become defacto housing projects.

I seriously can't believe this dumb biatch got voted in. Ny is doomed.
When is her term up?
