Golden Oaks Village senior housing PILOT
The Housing Commission plans 100 income-restricted senior cottages on 9.5 acres of city land next to Newburgh Village, financed largely by state low-income housing tax credits. The 3% PILOT would take the site from $0 in taxes to roughly $37,000 a year once built and occupied.
Housing commission transparency and website confusion
Residents questioned why the Housing Commission's contract with its consultant never came before council and whether city contracting rules apply to it. Council Member Persiconi explained the commission runs its own budget and approves its own contracts.
