New Ulster County Housing Action Fund Opens Applications on March 11

Year 1 Application Window for Funding Housing and Housing-Related Projects

The Ulster County Housing Action Fund, approved last August by the Ulster County Legislature, will open its first application window on March 11 and will accept applications until May 10, 2024, at 3 p.m. EST. The Ulster County Planning Department will host a virtual webinar on March 19, 2024, at 6 p.m. to provide information on the fund and application process. Interested parties can register at https://ulstercountyny.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwpcumvqD0vE9JYDjrbdmXmZ8yUSqTiqrmS(link is external).

The $15 million Fund, of which up to $3 million in projects could be allocated this year, was proposed last year by County Executive Jen Metzger and sponsored by Abe Uchitelle, Chair of the Legislature's Health, Human Services and Housing Committee, to address the housing crisis and support a wide variety of sustainable and affordable housing projects. After the Fund's approval by the Legislature last summer, a Housing Policy and Oversight Committee, composed of housing and financial experts, was appointed in November to develop and administer the application process, with the support of the Ulster County Planning Department. The committee has been working to prepare the way for this first round of funding, meeting most recently in early February.
