Original: Attorney trying to overturn NYC rent freeze tried influencing previous vote, ex-board chair says https://gothamist.com/n
An attorney working to overturn New York City's rent freeze attempted to influence the Rent Guidelines Board's previous vote, according to the board's former chair. The allegation adds a new dimension to the legal and political fight over the city's rent stabilization rules, raising questions about outside pressure on the panel that sets annual rent adjustments for stabilized apartments.
Why now: The accusation of improper influence on a city rent board is fresh and touches an ongoing, contentious fight over NYC rent policy.
