Job Description

On June 16, 2022, Governor Kathy Hochul signed the NYC Public Housing Preservation Trust Act, which authorized creation of the NYC Public Housing Preservation Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a public benefit corporation that will oversee the renovation and rehabilitation of the city’s public housing developments, owned by the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA). NYCHA remains permanent owner of the land/buildings and enters into a long-term ground lease with the Trust to secure a Section 8 rental subsidy contract with significantly higher value than NYCHA’s current federal subsidy. Using the rental subsidy contract, the Trust will raise financing to fund comprehensive building renovations. The Trust Act provides the Trust with the ability to convert up to 25,000 units, subject to a vote by the residents of a potential redevelopment site. No NYCHA site can convert to the Trust without a positive vote of the site’s residents. To date, residents at four developments have opted into the Trust, resulting in over 1,700 units that will be financed and renovated over the next five years, providing benefits to over 3,200 residents. Our values are core to our work. The Trust has adopted the following values: 1) Resident Empowerment: Center your efforts on the voices, needs, and leadership of residents in all aspects of the Trust’s operations. Actively engage and empower residents to foster stable, safe, and thriving communities. 2) Action-Oriented Excellence: Commit to urgent and effective action while maintaining a dedication to high-quality outcomes. Drive impactful results with a focus on excellence. 3) Future-Forward Resilience: Prepare our communities and buildings for the challenges of climate change and the future. Focus on creating resilient and sustainable environments to ensure long-term safety and adaptability. 4) Informed Innovation: Integrate innovative ideas and best practices into our approach to public housing. Continuously improve and lead in the field by leveraging a network of global peers with similar missions and values. 5) Collaborative Strength: Embrace the power of partnerships between the Trust, NYCHA, and various stakeholders. Involve multiple agencies and partners in finance, design, engineering, social services, training, and community rebuilding to transform public housing communities.
