Hochul Removes Controversial Accessory Dwelling Unit Proposal From Budget--February 17, 2022 Martin Wilbur

Gov. Kathy Hochul Thursday evening removed a controversial accessory dwelling unit (ADU) proposal from her proposed 2023 Executive Budget, which in recent weeks drew searing criticisms from local officials throughout Westchester County and the state.

In a statement, Hochul said after hearing “real concerns” she would pull the item from the spending plan so there could be consensus-building regarding the issue of increasing affordable housing around New York State..............Opposition to the legislation, first proposed last year by state Sen. Peter Harckham (D-Lewisboro) as a standalone bill, was one of two initiatives that have received intense levels of push-back over the past several weeks.
