ADUs benefit homeowners, renters, and the community by creating more housing options while maintaining the character of single-family residential suburban and rural communities. For homeowners, a code-compliant ADU can provide an additional source of income, flexibility for multi-generational housing, and an increase in property value. CDLI has been selected by New York State Homes and Community Renewal to administer the new Plus One ADU Program in the Town of Babylon, East Hampton, Shelter Island, and Southampton. The Plus One ADU Program provides a full-service program to support low- and middle-income single-family homeowner occupants who wish to: Build a new accessory dwelling unit on their property OR Improve an existing ADU that needs to be brought into compliance with code requirements. Click here for Plus One ADU Program FAQs Income Guidelines Household Size 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Household Maximum Annual Income $138,495 $158,280 $178,065 $197,850 $213,678 $229,506 $245,334 $261,162 Program Highlights Up to $125,000 in grant funding including project management costs per ADU constructed. Program support includes ADU design, permitting, and construction costs including oversight and closeout. Household annual income must be at or below the current Nassau/Suffolk Area Median Income based on household size.[1] Homeowners and renters must maintain year-round residency and keep the property in good condition and repair for 10 years or until the sale of the property[2] Frequently Asked Questions How much does an ADU cost? That depends on what you would like to build! For example, converting an existing garage will be less expensive than building a new free-standing dwelling unit. Our project team can provide suggestions to bring down project costs. However, homeowners usually need to contribute funds above the Plus One ADU grant amount. How much funding does Plus One ADU provide? The Plus One ADU Program may provide up to $125,000 (which includes CDLI program support, such as design, permitting, construction oversight, closeout and ongoing compliance) in forgivable grant funds. The total amount available for construction costs is up to $115,000. Applicants who do not use grant funds for pre-development costs (design, procuring an architect without CDLI putting out an RFP or getting the design, etc.) will have more funding available for construction up to a maximum of $115,000. What if constructing my ADU costs more than the grant can provide? Either (1) Reduce project scope to be within budget, or (2) Submit proof that you have or can borrow the necessary additional funds to complete the project. Is the Plus One ADU Program a loan program? Do I have to pay the money back? The Plus One ADU Program is a forgivable grant program. As long as you continue to meet program requirements, you will not have to pay the money back. Homeowners and ADU renters must maintain year-round residency and keep property in good condition and repair for 10 years or until sale of property. A deed covenant will be required to be filed with the County Clerk. Who will manage my design? Homeowners can choose their own design team or can work with an architect through CDLI. If homeowners pay for design costs directly, they can work with a designer of their choosing and they will have more grant funds available for construction costs. If CDLI procures a design team, the costs incurred will be drawn from that $115,000 in grant funds. In either case, Homeowners will work closely with the chosen firm to discuss designs. If a homeowner chooses to work with an architect through CDLI and then decides to cancel the project after design costs have been incurred they may be responsible for those costs. Who will manage my construction? CDLI will oversee all aspects of the construction process from contractor bidding & selection, compliance with MWBE/SDVOB utilization standards, general construction oversight & coordination between property owners and contractors, preparation of payment requests & other essential activities to ensure efficient construction. I have a contractor in mind, can I work with them? Yes, if they meet our requirements (licensing, insurance, etc.) and there is no conflict of interest. You will need to provide itemized work scope and cost estimate from your selected contractor as well as one additional written quote to confirm the cost is competitive. How will funds be disbursed to contractors? Plus One ADU grant funds can only be issued on a reimbursement basis. Advance payments to contractors are not permitted. Contractors may submit receipts for reimbursable items such as materials purchased, surveys etc. Plus One ADU grant funds will be paid to contractors in progress payments at 50% completion and 100% completion. 10% of funds will be held until a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued. Contractors may submit invoices for reimbursement of materials, permit fees and survey prior to 50% completion. If Plus One ADU grant funds are disbursed for these items, that amount will be deducted from the payment at 50% completion. For construction projects which exceed the Plus One ADU grant amount, a payment schedule will be included in the contract to delineate the split between homeowner payments and Plus One ADU grant payments.

STEP ONE – SUBMISSION OF WAIT LIST APPLICATION Applications will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis and may only be submitted on-line beginning at 9AM March 5, 2025. DO NOT deliver applications in any other manner such as by mail or hand-delivery as they will NOT be accepted. To submit the electronic application, go to CDLI’s website at www.cdli.org and click on the link for Greenview Estate House Application. Applicants will be placed on a wait list in the order in which their application is received. Applications will be automatically dated and time stamped for submission and included in a database. Applicants will be notified of their waitlist rank number by CDLI. CDLI will contact applicantsin ranked orderto determine formal eligibility for a unit. Inclusion on the Waitlist represents only the first step for initial compliance and does not guarantee preliminary approval or eligibility for a unit. STEP TWO – TENANT SUITABILITY SCREENING As applicant’s names are reached on the Waitlist, CDLI will contact applicants in ranked order, by email, if available, or by phone. If an applicant remains interested, the applicant will be asked to submit photo ID for all household members above the age of 18. CDLI will refer applicants to Owner/Manager to complete a Rental Application. A $20 application fee is required to be paid by credit or debit card online. Owner/Manager eligibility review will involve assessing the applicant’s suitability for tenancy through employment verification, leasing history, creditworthiness, and criminal background checks utilizing a reputable company and adhering to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. A personal interview will also be conducted by the Owner/Manager. Applicants will also be required to show that they are able to provide first month’s rent and a security deposit. Applicants who are successfully screened will be referred back to CDLI for program eligibility review. STEP THREE – PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY SCREENING As applicants are deemed eligible pursuant to Step 2 above, CDLI will notify applicants via email to submit required documentation that will include: Proof of age for all household members* last 2 years of federal income tax returns, W-2 and/or 1099 form; four most recent consecutive pay stubs, current Social Security Award letter, retirement statements, etc. if applicable, approved subsidy housing assistance information/voucher three most recent consecutive monthly bank statements for all bank accounts and investment accounts. The applicant will have 5 business days to provide all supporting documentation. If the foregoing is not received by CDLI within such time period, the applicant will be ineligible and a letter will be sent confirming same. The applicant will also be required to provide certain consents in order to permit CDLI to verify income submissions and employment. Income will include all gross income, including, but not limited to, income from full and part time employment, overtime, bonuses, tips, pensions, social security, 401k and IRA distributions, child support, alimony, and severance pay. ALL sources of income are included and will be annualized for the upcoming 12-month period. Total income minus allowable exclusions, if any, cannot exceed the maximum income limits. Applicants who are successfully screened will be offered the opportunity to enter into a written Lease Agreement. Criminal Background Search A criminal background check will be conducted. There are two mandatory reasons why an applicant WILL be denied tenancy based on their criminal background: (1) applicant or any member of the household has been convicted for methamphetamine production; or (2) applicant or any member of the household is a lifetime registrant on a State or Federal Sex Offender database. [1] The following documents are considered to be reliable for age verification: birth certificate, driver’s license, passport, immigration card, military identification, or any other state, local, national or international documentation, provided it contains current information about the age or birth of the possessor. In addition, Owner/Manager will assess applicants with criminal convictions and pending arrests for offenses that (1) involved physical danger or violence to persons or property or (2) that adversely affected the health, safety and welfare of other people. These categories of crimes are relevant because they relate to the behavior expected of a tenant, who is to live peaceably alongside other tenants and to respect their property. An individualized assessment will be conducted and a determination made which may result in an applicant being denied. Credit History A credit report will be obtained on each applicant. Applicant must have a satisfactory credit history of meeting financial obligations, including timely payment of rent. Applicants cannot have been late on rental payments in the last 12 months. Outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history may be a cause for ineligibility. A minimum credit score of 650 is required. Credit history, outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Annual Income Recertification. Tenants will be recertified annually in accordance with the guidelines established for affordability. Tenants will be provided with an affordable unit recertification checklist and acknowledgement at time of lease up which details income recertification requirements. At annual recertification, the maximum allowable income shall not exceed 100% of the then applicable 80% of HUD Area Median income for Suffolk County as adjusted for family size. If tenant income exceeds maximum income required for the affordable units, the tenant may continue to occupy the unit but rent will be adjusted to market rent. In the event a unit previously designated as affordable is converted to market rent, the next available unit will be designated as affordable in conformance with the requirements stated within these Program Guidelines. Affordability Period The affordability restrictions stated above will remain in effect in perpetuity at the discretion of the Town of Islip Town Board. WAITLIST The Intake Waitlist will convert to a permanent waitlist once the 4 affordable units are leased-up. When vacancies occur, the first eligible applicant on the waitlist will be contacted to inform him/her that a unit is available at the preferred mode of contact as indicated on the Waitlist Intake Form. Three attempts will be made to inform the applicant before proceeding to the next applicant on the list; all attempts will be documented. If the applicant is no longer interested, the application will be removed from the waitlist with an explanation for the reason for the removal from the waitlist. Interested applicants will have 5 business days to provide a completed Formal Rental Application, together with the required documentation as set forth above in order to conduct income certification, employment verification, creditworthiness, and background checks as described in Step 2 and Step 3 above. COMMITMENT TO FAIR HOUSING & NONDISCRIMINATION The Owner/Manager is fully committed to enforcing the spirit and the letter of Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Federal Fair Housing Law), the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the New York Human Rights Act, and the Suffolk County Human Rights Act. Neither the Owner/Manager nor any of its affiliates, employees, agents, or brokers will discriminate in the sale, lease, advertisement or financing of housing against any individual or family because of race, color, national origin, religion, gender, disability, gender identity, marital status, sexual orientation, veteran/military status, source of income, or on the basis of any other protected class.
