It doesn't matter when you send your application in because it's by Log Number. Here's a super long post about York Hill but hopefully this info is going to be useful for someone: I replied with some info in the big Mitchell Lama questions thread but I can give a run-down of some of the layouts in here, and maybe we can consolidate all York Hill specific info (wait list numbers, call backs, etc.) into this thread. ![]() I have friends there and family that live there. York Hill is one of the best Mitchell Lama complexes around. Hey.congrats on getting on the wait list. Does anyone have any ideas of how the studios look? Possible layouts?

The new rules also permit HPD to waive rules, on the initiative of HPD Commissioner Vicki Been, if in the Commissioner’s opinion the application of the rules in a specific case or emergency condition may be shown to effect undue hardship.īy: Michael Twomey (Michael is the CityLaw Fellow and a New York Law School graduate, Class of 2014.I thought I would start this thread because there seems to be a lot of us on the waiting list for either the 1 bedroom or the studio. Under the new rules, HPD may grant waivers of occupancy standards where there are no available applicants on the waiting list, where the other requirements including income have been met, and HPD determines it is in the development’s best interest to fill the specific vacancy by offering the apartment to an applicant on the waiting list of a different-size apartment. Under the old rules, waivers were only granted for medical reasons. The amended rules also increase HPD’s ability to grant waivers of occupancy standards. Preference will only be shown for veterans or surviving spouses who are on the waiting list as applicants of record and self-identified as head of the household. The rules specify the mere inclusion of a veteran or a surviving spouse in an applicant’s household is insufficient for preference. The amended rules now give preference to applicants who are veterans or the surviving spouse of a veteran, where before preference was shown to veterans only, and not the surviving spouse. Appeals of rejections, in writing, are permitted within thirty days of the date of written notification of the rejection. Applicants will be disqualified if they submit multiple applications for the same development, or if multiple members of the same household apply for the same development. Applications are now only transferable to a spouse or adult child of the applicant, and only if the spouse was married to the applicant or if the child was of age at the time of application. The amended rules tighten the application process for a Mitchell-Lama unit, requiring an applicant meet the development’s eligibility requirements at the time the apartment is offered to the applicant, rather than at the time the applicant first filed the application. Owners of rental buildings and co-ops may opt-out of Mitchell-Lama after paying off the subsidized loans and mortgages, ending the tax abatements and placing the housing units onto the open real estate market.
