A judge has blocked the implementation of NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s pied-à-terre tax. Fox News’s Stepheny Price and Maria Paronich report:
A New York judge slammed the brakes Monday on Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s controversial rollout of a new tax on luxury second homes, ordering City Hall to take down a controversial list exposing the names, addresses and property values of more than 900,000 New York City homeowners.
Judge Wayne Ozzi temporarily restrained the Mamdani administration from moving ahead based on the disputed property roll or mailed notices and barred the city from enforcing its looming deadlines against homeowners caught up in the rollout.
The signed order also prevents the city from imposing, assessing or collecting the surcharge against homeowners identified on the supplemental roll or sending a notice without first making the individualized determination and providing the notice required under state tax law.
Randy Mastro, who is leading the fight against Mamdani’s tax, spoke with CNBC about the lawsuit. Watch:
