New York Court of Appeals

Granada Buildings, Inc. v. City of Kingston

December 2, 198258 N.Y.2d 705

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division, holding that the City of Kingston's 1977 resolution granting a partial tax exemption to Granada Buildings, Inc. was a nullity because it was not authorized by section 125 of the Private Housing Finance Law, and that estoppel cannot be used against a public agency.
