The board’s resolution authorizes a sales‑tax exemption, a mortgage‑recording‑tax exemption and a 30‑year PILOT that deviates from the agency’s Uniform Tax Exemption Policy (UTEP) to advance the project proposed by 438 Main Development LLC. The vote passed with no opposition.

The project, as described to the board, would construct a six‑story building containing 115 affordable senior units (including one superintendent unit), commercial space and roughly 80 parking spaces on the long‑vacant site of the former Union Baptist Church. Adam Salgado, commissioner of development and the IDA executive director, introduced the application and presented the public‑hearing process before the board.

Kevin Grama, the IDA’s financial consultant from Grow America, outlined the financing: \"the development cost total, dollars 69,000,000,\" financed through a layered capital structure that includes low‑income housing tax credit equity, funding from New York Homes and Community Renewal, and Westchester County participation. Grama told the board the project would serve households at 30% to 60% of area median income under IRS Section 42 rent restrictions for low‑income housing tax credits.

Grama said the PILOT term is intended to align with the 30‑year affordability restrictions and that, under full taxation, the project would produce negative cash flow. He gave several key figures the board used to weigh the request: an estimated development cost of $69,000,000 (about $600,000 per unit), a projected PILOT starting tax equivalent of about $74,000 with a 2% annual escalator, total public benefits valued at roughly $18,200,000, and estimated public cost savings from the three tax exemptions of about $14,000,000 — yielding a stated net public benefit of about $4,000,000.

Grama also addressed school‑impact testing, noting the project is senior housing and is \"not likely to result in any new students,\" and that, even under a different unit mix, an estimated net increase of about one student would be absorbed by the PILOT.

At the public hearing, Michael Yellin spoke in favor of the project, praising the developer’s outreach to the building trades and urging continued progress on the city’s economic‑opportunity nondiscrimination goals. \"Change is incremental and good changes are even more incremental,\" Yellin said, and he commended the project for its potential to increase local union and apprenticeship opportunities.

Board members and staff emphasized the project’s role in downtown revitalization and in adding senior housing. Several members praised outreach to trades and the project’s partnership structure; one board member said the body has \"always been business partners with developers\" and noted the high cost of construction as a reason government subsidy is often necessary for affordable housing.

The resolution before the board authorizes the three tax exemptions and the 30‑year PILOT described at the hearing. The finance subcommittee reviewed the application and recommended approval. The board recorded the resolution as passed unanimously.

Project proponents estimated construction would begin in 2026, subject to standard permitting and financing milestones.

Votes at the meeting on this item were unanimous in favor; no board member recorded a vote against, abstention or absence regarding this resolution.

The IDA manager opened and closed the public hearing in accordance with New York General Municipal Law Section 859‑a, subsection 2, with the public hearing notice published in the Journal News on Sept. 12, 2025.

The board meeting then moved on to other items, including two administrative resolutions (see separate item).","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","New Rochelle - IDA & CLD Meetings","oneSentenceSummary","The New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency on Sept. 24 unanimously approved tax exemptions and a 30‑year payment‑in‑lieu‑of‑taxes (PILOT) agreement to support a proposed 115‑unit deeply affordable senior housing development at 438 Main Street.","taxTitle","New Rochelle, Westchester County, New York","taxId",76423,"location","New York","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6458192,"Votes at a glance: IDA approves ownership consent for 111 Center; CLD transfers $10,000 to marketing",73,2030000,2103000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5823298-9ccad7f27b38301949b5af38c4f7f15f&start=2030&end=2103","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5823298-9ccad7f27b38301949b5af38c4f7f15f/thumbnail_2030000.jpg","/articles/6458192/New-York/Votes-at-a-glance-IDA-approves-ownership-consent-for-111-Center-CLD-transfers-10000-to-marketing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6458192-8e8adfa4591208df4a910b8e9fdd30c0/orig.mp4?Expires=1770500511&Signature=OBxwhwXu3TqZKREnV1AbQPVx7bPM25YUkitslVgxqhL3~UIIonbsSznZcVbDGY9X98TBMcyaTVh31CKo5Ai8DUKDgHtCK2oX7M5B8IarnWBLBpRpNUa~~5UNfIwsgiiw7OPzr7HdGiorkLqTS-U6xL1XzU1j1QBJ0T7FF7ikYna2hMYLo1JAW5o28BkVA03lE8vUCx6xr9aBFkwZMQPoSKU~d3WcCdcsanPM-4tDRr0TLXCfe~2LNhARrsv7HtZUwyFTzFLaTn02JFRh0uAhaC15Hzmvk7~IoWT1vcEHvFGRxgW7Q-sAVPrOLDEbwzNLbubs21oUb9LQgP~B3v9LcQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Two additional resolutions were adopted unanimously during the Sept. 24 meetings of the New Rochelle Industrial Development Agency (IDA) and the New Rochelle Corporation for Local Development (CLD).

The IDA approved a resolution consenting to a change in ownership structure for CH New Rochelle LLC, the developer of the completed 334‑unit mixed‑use building at 111 Center (also known as 24 Maple Avenue). Adam Salgado, commissioner of development and the IDA executive director, described the request as administrative: the project closed with the IDA in 2020 and remains fully operational. The finance subcommittee reviewed the matter and recommended approval. The board recorded the vote as unanimous; the resolution provides board consent under the project’s closing documents but does not grant any new benefits from the IDA.

Separately, the New Rochelle Corporation for Local Development authorized a $10,000 transfer from its 2025 fund balance into the CLD marketing budget. Adam Salgado told the CLD board the allocation will fund sponsorships and partnerships intended to raise the corporation’s visibility and support events such as the NAACP, the New York Housing Conference, and the Urban Land Institute’s Visionary Award for Leadership in Land Use. The CLD board recorded the transfer as unanimously approved.

Both votes were described by staff as noncontroversial; no public opposition was recorded in the meeting minutes and both measures passed without recorded no votes or abstentions.

Summary of actions

• CH New Rochelle LLC (111 Center / 24 Maple Avenue) — Board consent to change in ownership structure; administrative; passed unanimously.

• New Rochelle Corporation for Local Development — Transfer $10,000 from 2025 fund balance to marketing budget for sponsorships/partnerships; passed unanimously.

The IDA and CLD confirmed their next scheduled meetings for Oct. 29, 2025.","On Sept. 24 the New Rochelle IDA and the New Rochelle Corporation for Local Development approved an administrative ownership‑consent resolution for a completed mixed‑use project at 111 Center (24 Maple Ave.) and authorized a $10,000 transfer into the CLD marketing budget for sponsorships and partnerships.","actionData","errors"]
