New York State Builders Association Lays out 2012 Legislative Agenda
At NYSBA's Winter Board Meeting at Turning Stone Resort in December, our board of trustees put together our 2012 Legislative Agenda which outlines the important issues that face this association and the residential construction industry as a whole.
For 2012, NYSBA plans to advance legislation and regulatory reform that addresses three broad issues:
(1) Promoting homeownership by increasing affordable housing stock for all New Yorkers;
(2) Addressing the key factors that drive up the cost of housing;
(3) Encouraging a more business-friendly climate in New York State.
You can find a copy of our complete 2012 Legislative Agenda here.
