We must look at this issue in context of other critical policy priorities - including supporting renewable energy goals and combating climate change. Through strategic investments in smart development, we can both create more affordable housing stock and increase financing options available to those seeking homes, while also investing in sustainable building practices that protect our environment.

Housing & Urban Development

Importantly, a happy, connected, productive community must have access to affordable, quality health care and social services. That means being able to find and afford quality medical services within a reasonable distance from our home - and not getting stuck on months-long waitlists for a general practitioner. We need to support our residents battling substance abuse and ensure we’re prepared for the health impacts brought upon by climate change. And, we must continually protect and defend reproductive rights.

Said homeowners in resale-restricted affordable homes should not pay property taxes on the value they cannot realize through a market-rate sale.

"We are in unprecedented times with federal cuts forcing states and counties to do even more to protect residents’ critical needs, including healthcare,” said Legislator Lindsey Grossman. “This new sales tax sharing agreement strikes the right balance — looking ahead to ensure Ulster County can provide for residents in the future, while also ensuring town boards and supervisors across the County share in the upside when sales tax revenues exceed projections."

Grossman said in a Freeman questionnaire that she supported the resolution asking the state for permission to impose the income tax surcharge but wouldn’t vote to implement the tax without “a clear demonstration of need, strong guardrails, a sunset provision, and transparency about how the revenue would be used.”

"When they buy these homes, they're legally restricted down the line from selling that same home at market rate," said Grossman. "The whole idea is that over a long period of time, these organizations who invested in this house want to make sure that it's available for other affordable families down the line, and so we really felt that it was unfair that people were paying property taxes on a value that they really could never take advantage of."

She said creating more affordable housing in the county would be among her chief priorities if reelected and said she would work to reduce “unnecessary barriers” to affordable housing by, among other things, supporting investment in infrastructure and enacting policies that would lower costs for eligible homeowners.
