<div><div><div>About the Agency:<br>
<br>
The New York City Department of Housing Preservation Development (HPD) promotes quality and affordability in the city's housing, and diversity and strength in the city&rsquo;s neighborhoods because every New Yorker deserves a safe, affordable place to live in a neighborhood they love.<br>

<ul><li>We create opportunities for New Yorkers through housing affordability</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>We engage New Yorkers to build and sustain neighborhood strength and diversity.</li></ul><br>
HPD is entrusted with fulfilling these objectives through the goals and strategies of &ldquo;Housing Our Neighbors: A Blueprint for Housing and Homelessness,&rdquo; Mayor Adams&rsquo; comprehensive housing framework. To support this important work, the administration has committed $5 billion in new capital funding, bringing the 10-year planned investment in housing to $22 billion the largest in the city&rsquo;s history. This investment, coupled with a commitment to reduce administrative and regulatory barriers, is a multi-pronged strategy to tackle New York City&rsquo;s complex housing crisis, by addressing homelessness and housing instability, promoting economic stability and mobility, increasing homeownership opportunities, improving health and safety, and increasing opportunities for equitable growth.<br>
<br>

<br>
The Office of Development leads the agency&rsquo;s effort to develop affordable housing, through new construction and preservation of existing affordable housing. The Housing Incentives division offers tax credits, tax incentives, and zoning bonuses in order to facilitate affordable housing development.

Cases focus on violations of statutory requirements, including, but not limited to, rent registration and affordability requirements, as well as violations of Regulatory Agreements. These investigations regularly involve coordination with other city and state agencies; you may assist the AC in liaising with these agencies. Additionally, the attorney will investigate allegations that are referred from both internal and external sources. The attorney will also participate in drafting and reviewing legislation that affects the division&rsquo;s compliance and enforcement efforts. Additionally, you will assist the Assistant Commissioner and other senior staff with agency reporting requirements on compliance cases handled by the division.<br>
<br>
Your Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:<br>
<br>
