    Overview

    • • The administration would provide matching funds for the City Council’s Citywide Community Land Trust Initiative, increasing total funding to $6 million annually.

    • Community Land Trusts are nonprofit organizations that hold land to support long-term affordability and community control of housing, with more than 20 operating across New York City.

    • • The funding proposal supports other community land trust policies, including plans to pass the Community Land Act governing the sale of city-owned land.
