FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


What is Rehabilitation Support Services, Inc.?

Rehabilitation Support Services, Inc. (RSS) is a not-for-profit agency and one of New York’s premier providers of affordable housing. RSS has been operating in Albany County since 1979, and currently provides affordable and supportive housing to more than 1,400 individuals in 13 upstate New York counties.

Where is RSS in the approval process?

Colonie Hills would be located on a 38-acre property that was previously approved, as part of a Planned Development District (PDD), for a strikingly similar housing development project. When that project was abandoned, RSS struck a purchase agreement with the property owner.

RSS has submitted plans for the Colonie Hills project to the Town of Colonie, which are currently being reviewed by the Planning Board.

What would rent be like?

Currently, fair-market rentals for similar apartments range from about $1,000 to $1,350 per month. In keeping with the affordability goals for Colonie Hills, all units will have rents ranging from $630 to $1,059 per month.

What does a “campus-style design” entail?

Colonie Hills is designed as a campus setting with abundant green space, intended to foster a strong sense of community. One of the unique aspects of the project involves the construction of a community building, which features a community room, Internet stations, mailboxes, as well as offices for support staff.

What types of on-site services will be available to residents?

RSS will provide on-site person-centered rehabilitative services that will foster wellness and recovery in a safe and quality environment. Shelter, income management, adequate nutrition, transportation, socialization and healthcare are basic needs that will be provided for and/or arranged for.

Additionally, RSS will offer residents workshops and seminars on health and social service issues, such as education, nutrition and personal finance.

How will Colonie Hills be operated and maintained?

As with every housing development it owns and operates, RSS will be fully engaged in managing day-to-day operations at Colonie Hills: responsive, caring and committed to the wellbeing of the families and community it serves.

Will Colonie hills pay taxes?

Yes, Colonie Hills will be on the tax rolls and pay real estate taxes. Real Property Tax Law 581-A dictates that the assessed value must take into consideration the affordable aspect of the project.
