Matter of Hudson Val. Prop. Owners Assn. Inc. v. City of Kingston

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division’s order, upholding Kingston’s declaration of a housing emergency and both rent‑guidelines adopted by the Kingston New York Rent Guidelines Board. The court found the city’s vacancy‑rate survey reasonably reliable and concluded the guidelines were within the authority granted by the Emergency Tenant Protection Act. Accordingly, the petitioners were denied relief.
