Adams proposed the idea during an announcement for a new faith-based shelter program for migrants that allows up to 50 houses of worship or faith-based spaces to host nearly 1,000 single adult foreign nationals who recently arrived in New York City.<\/p>\n<h3>Using Private Residences to House Migrants<\/h3>\n<p>Adams said during a press conference that city residents who are currently struggling with economic hardship can open up \u201cspare rooms\u201d to migrants. City officials would work to \u201cfind a way\u201d to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nyc-mayor-envisions-private-residences-housing-migrants\/\" title=\"NYC Mayor wants to use private homes for migrants.\">bypass municipality rules prohibiting housing homeless individuals<\/a> in private homes. New York City will spend $85 a night to house each foreign national, plus additional costs, such as laundry services and security. A spokesperson for Adams said it would cost roughly $125 per night for each migrant after factoring in all costs.<\/p>\n<h3>Cost-Effective Solution<\/h3>\n<p>City officials have grappled with over 72,000 migrants arriving in the metropolitan area since last spring, with more than 60% living in 160 taxpayer-funded emergency shelters and hotels, according to the New York Post. New York City has already spent more than $1.2 billion on the migrant crisis during this fiscal year alone and is projected to spend more than $4.3 billion by the end of June 2024, Adams said. An average of $380 a day per migrant goes towards housing and other services, per city estimates.<\/p>\n<p>With the costs expected to increase by next year, Adams and other officials in the program argue that using the places of worship would be \u201cmuch more cost-effective\u201d than the current strategy. \u201cWe can take that $4.2 billion \u2014 $4.3 [billion] maybe now \u2014 that we anticipate we have to spend, and we can put it back in the pockets of everyday, everyday houses of worship instead of putting it in the pockets of corporations.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Investing in Families<\/h3>\n<p>Adams said he has been requesting the New York state legislature bring illegal basement apartments up to city code, which the New York Post estimated would cost the city nearly $14 billion for an estimated 50,000 below-ground-level spaces. \u201cFirst of all, it\u2019s cheaper, and it\u2019s an investment for us to go to a family and assist them instead of placing people in large congregate settings or all these emergency hotels,\u201d the mayor said.<\/p>\n<h3>Call for Federal Support<\/h3>\n<p>Adams also called on the federal government to provide support, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/eric-adams-suggests-housing-illegal-immigrants-in-private-homes\/\" title=\"Eric Adams proposes placing undocumented immigrants in private residences for housing.\">including expedited work authorization<\/a> for migrants, a national decompression strategy, increased funding to manage the crisis, and immigration reform.<\/p>\n<p><em>Spencer Lindquist contributed to this report.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Monday suggested private homeowners and landlords could help with the influx of migrants in the Big Apple.
