Housing Affordability & Homeownership

Khari Edwards champions affordable housing for Brooklyn

Khari Edwards, candidate for Brooklyn Borough President, believes in redefining what affordability means for Brooklyn’s residents. "As Borough President, I can help reshape affordability by shifting away from exclusionary development," he says. Edwards is committed to giving local communities more say, proposing that community boards regain influence over planning decisions. His plan includes adding more Borough President-appointed members to the City Planning Commission to ensure that local voices guide Brooklyn’s growth.
