NYCHA's $2.4 billion five-year capital program (2012-2016) is intended to provide much needed infrastructure improvements, rehabilitation of facilities, and ensure the overall financial stability of the Authority. As NYCHA continues to operate with large capital and operating deficits and explore ways to diversify its funding, the Committee will seek to review its operating and capital programs to examine whether there is a need for greater transparency and accountability.
