Some Suburbs Are Actually Trying to Solve the Housing Shortage

For the Many, a progressive Hudson Valley political group, is pushing to bump up the affordability requirement in the new code to two in 10 units, and hopes to see existing short-term rentals banned entirely in properties with absentee owners.

“We want to see current stock be freed up for use by long term residents and see the prices go down as a result of that,” said Brahvan Ranga, For the Many’s political director. “We also think that the 10 percent affordability requirement is woefully inadequate.”
