Posted on February 8, 2016 by Tanay Warerkar in Curbed Curbed, By Tanay Warerkar Over the next two days, the City Council will debate two rezoning proposals introduced by the Mayor de Blasio’s administration: Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH) and Zoning for Quality and Affordability (ZQA). Both proposals are part of the mayor’s ambitious Housing New York plan, which seeks to add and maintain 200,000 units of affordable housing across the five boroughs over the next 10 years. Both proposals have been controversial with many community groups coming out against their implementation. But as the City Council gets ready to add its own set of changes to the plans, Curbed is taking a look at both proposals and seeing what they actually have to offer, and examine why people are concerned.
