There is a broad degree of disparity among private homeowners and cooperators who individually own their homes when it comes to taxation.  The issue is a never-ending one, that, according to many legislators is an irresolvable one.

  • The Council of New York Co-ops offered a history of the abatement program in August 2012 and is available for your perusal: CNYC re Tax Abatement 0812.
