Court Pauses Mamdani’s Pied-à-Terre Tax Rollout Amid Legal Challenge
A Staten Island judge temporarily blocked New York City’s rollout of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s pied-à-terre tax, ordering the city to pause the tax roll and any notices while a lawsuit filed by three homeowners proceeds. The ruling found the notices caused irreparable harm by failing to explain why properties were flagged and warning that exemptions might be needed. The next hearing is set for August 31. The tax targets non-primary residences valued at $5 million+ and certain high-value co-ops/condos; about 17,000 letters were sent and roughly 900,000 NYC properties appeared on the tax roll, including many not subject to the surcharge. Mamdani pledged to vigorously defend the city’s position. This is a developing story and updates will follow.
