NYC sends 11,000 more pied-à-terre tax letters after apology for errors

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

New York City is issuing a second wave of pied-à-terre tax notices to approximately 10,800 property owners, following an initial mailing that mistakenly targeted 1,210 individuals. The Department of Finance is now clearing these 1,210 owners because they had provided 2025 tax returns indicating the properties were primary residences. The city faced criticism for not having access to this crucial 2025 tax data when the first notices were sent, leading to a lawsuit and an apology from Mayor Zohran Mamdani. AI
