The sponsor's argument

Why Cordell Cleare says this is needed

New York must address the critical need to rehabilitate vacant units within the New York City Housing Authority (N.Y,C.H.A.) and ensure effi- cient, transparent use of any funds that make it into the final enacted budget for the authority. It is vital that we expedite the process of bringing over 5,000 vacant units back online to help meet the growing demand for affordable housing. This initiative will improve accountabil- ity and foster a more community-driven approach to housing management. Establishing Resident Management Corporations (RMCs) allows residents to take on key roles in managing NYCHA properties. RMCs are organizations formed by residents of public housing to manage their own property. The housing authority still owns the property. Depending on the arrangement, the RMC may take over some or all of the management.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
