  Even as late as this week, Westhab Vice President Robert Sanborn went door to door in the Fulton Park neighborhood, trying to convince residents that the proposed building - and the working families and veterans who would live there - would benefit the community, not detract from it.

  "We're seeing a huge gap in our financing," said Robert Sanborn, vice president of real estate development at Westhab. "The funding environment has become intensely more competitive."
  
  Sanborn explained that investors who formerly funded affordable housing have limited their investments, causing a greater number of developers to go after a smaller pot of investors' funds.

  Robert Sanborn, Westhab's vice president of real estate development, said Westhab's southern expansion coincides with New York City's $7.5 billion plan to build 165,000 units of affordable housing by 2013.
  
  "The Bronx has a considerable amount of low-income housing, but not workforce housing," Sanborn said.

  "What the land trust provides is a permanent solution to long-term affordability that has been missing, generally speaking, in the public-funding environment," said Robert Sanborn, the vice president for real estate development at Westhab, which is developing the project on Clinton Place in New Rochelle.

  Robert Sanborn, Westhab's vice president for real estate development, said Thursday he had not been notified by the VA that the "minor delay" in opening the Yonkers building had posed problems for any veterans.
  
  "If anyone needs housing, we have plenty of other places for people to move into," Sanborn said.

  Rents would range from $800 a month for a studio to $1,300 a month for a two-bedroom unit with heat and hot water included, said Robert Sanborn, Westhab's vice president of real estate development.
  
  The apartment complex would be geared to young singles and couples with household incomes between 50 percent and 80 percent of Westchester's median income.
  
  Median income in the county currently is $95,900, so people with household income of $47,950 to $76,720 a year would qualify for a unit.But those numbers will change by summer 2009, when Westhab hopes to open the complex.
  
  Sanborn and Miller said civic leaders and town officials support the project.
  ...
  If the town grants Westhab the proper permits, Sanborn said, construction will begin early next year and the apartments would be ready to rent by summer 2009.Plans for the complex are still on the drawing board, but Sanborn said the town should have architectural renderings in about a month.
  ...
  New construction would allow for better landscaping and energy efficiency, Sanborn said.

  Robert Miller, WestHab president and CEO, left, and Robert Sanborn, vice president of real estate development, look at a former homeless shelter site that will be converted into affordable housing units.

  In exchange for the variance, Westhab has offered to return the undeveloped air rights in perpetuity to the town, forfeiting the right to extend or further construct on the lot, developer Robert Sanborn said.
  
  "The neighbors won't be completely satisfied and we aren't completely satisfied, which is a good balance," Sanborn said."This is a fair compromise and we are hoping to move forward with the project."
  
  Sanborn said he has attended 66 meetings in 13 months with town officials and residents to discuss the development.
  
  In January, Westhab first proposed a $16.5 million plan for a six-story building with 43 units and a "green" roof, with a community room lined with greenery to serve as the zone's required open space.
  
  Sanborn said Westhab is no longer seeking a variance for the "green" roof, since all open-space requirements would now be met at street level.The roof would remain green but would no longer be accessible to tenants, he said.
