No. 14) (&ldquo;Original Project&rdquo;).&nbsp;&nbsp;The Amended Project changes the program from the New Foundations Program to the New Infill Homeownership Opportunities Program and changes the number of buildings and units that are proposed, but is otherwise the same as the Original Project.&nbsp; Under the Original Project, the NYC Partnership Housing Development Fund Company, Inc., the designated sponsor (&ldquo;Sponsor&rdquo;) was to purchase the Disposition Area and construct up to&nbsp;six buildings containing a total of up to 14 condominium units, up to two 2-family homes totaling up to18 dwelling units and up to two commercial condominium units for sale to low income purchasers.&nbsp; Under the Amended Project, Sponsor will purchase the Disposition Area and construct up to seven 3-family homes containing a total of up to 21 dwelling units for sale to low income purchasers.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Under the New Infill Homeownership Opportunities Program (NIHOP), sponsors purchase City-owned land for $1.00 per tax lot and construct one- to four-family homes or condominium units.&nbsp; The sponsor also delivers a note and mortgage for the difference between the appraised value of the land and the purchase price (&ldquo;Land Debt&rdquo;).&nbsp; Construction financing may be provided through loans from the City (&quot;City Subsidy&quot;), the New York State Affordable Housing Corporation, private lenders and from developer equity.&nbsp; The City provides tax exemption for the homes pursuant to Section 696 of the General Municipal Law.&nbsp; Federal HOME funds may be used to provide down payment assistance.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Upon completion, the sponsor sells the homes to eligible purchasers who have agreed to owner-occupy for a total of fifteen years.&nbsp; The Land Debt and City Subsidy, if any, are apportioned pro rata to each home and may be unsecured and reduced at the time of sale based on the home&#39;s post-construction appraised value. Purchasers repay the Land Debt and City Subsidy, if any, attributable to their homes by delivering a note and a mortgage and/or conditional grant agreement to the City.&nbsp; The sum evidenced by the note and secured by the security instruments declines from years 6 to 15 by one-tenth of the original principal sum for each year of owner occupancy.&nbsp; Initial purchasers and subsequent owners are required to make payments to the City out of resale or refinancing profits.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> HPD proposes to sell the Disposition Area to Sponsor at the nominal price of $1.00 per tax lot.&nbsp; Upon conveyance, Sponsor will also deliver a note and mortgage for the difference between the appraised value of the land and the purchase price (&quot;Land Debt&quot;).&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> The appraisal and the proposed Land Disposition Agreement and Project Summary are available for public examination at the office of HPD, 100 Gold Street, Room 5-A1, New York, New York on business days during business hours.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that a public hearing will be held on May 27, 2015 at Second Floor Conference Room, 22 Reade Street, Manhattan at 10:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be reached on the calendar, at which time and place those wishing to be heard will be given an opportunity to be heard concerning the proposed sale of the Disposition Area pursuant to Section 695(2)(b) of the General Municipal Law and Section 1802(6)(j) of the Charter.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Individuals requesting sign language interpreters should contact the Mayor&#39;s Office Of Contract Services, Public Hearings Unit, 253 Broadway, Room 915, New York, New York&nbsp; 10007, (212) 788-7490, no later than seven (7) business days prior to the public hearing.&nbsp; TDD users should call Verizon relay services.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p>
