Mamdani’s pied-a-terre tax returns to life as legal fight continues
TL;DR
An appellate court temporarily lifts the lower court’s restraining order, allowing City Hall to proceed with Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s pied-a-terre tax rollout while the full appeals panel reviews the case, keeping the tax in effect despite ongoing homeowner lawsuits that accuse the rollout of being botched and harassing. The city argues the pause would create headaches for taxpayers and threaten essential revenues, as the legal battle involving homeowners including Randy Mastro continues to unfold.
