New York State Housing Programs Roundtable
Date: Wednesday, July 28th 2010
As a part of the Executive Budget, the Governor has directed nyhomes and DHCR to integrate senior management to improve service delivery and achieve operational efficiencies. Brian Lawlor, Commissioner of DHCR and President/ CEO of “nyhomes,” asked the Furman Center’s Institute for Affordable Housing Policy to convene a meeting to discuss the integration of the State’s housing programs. We brought together a select group of current and former leaders of City, State and Federal Housing Agencies and leading housing scholars to examine the opportunities the integration presents, and to provide counsel as to what could be improved in the design and operation of Agency programs.
In addition to senior staff from the Furman Center and the Agencies, the following leaders attended the roundtable:
• Amy Anthony, President, Preservation of Affordable Rental Housing
• Doug Apple, First Deputy Commissioner, NYC Department of Housing, Preservation and Development
• Pat Clancy, President, The Community Builders, Inc.
• Marc Jahr, President, NYC Housing Development Corporation
• Ron Moelis, Principal, L&M Development Partners
• John McCarthy, Community Preservation Corporation
• Jerilyn Perine, Executive Director, Citizens Housing and Planning Council
• Abby Jo Sigel, Vice President, New York Director of Enterprise Community Partners
