ESDC Update: DHCR’s VanAmerongen Promises Response Within Week


As previously reported the New York State Empire State Development Corporation issued FMV tax equivalency bills to the Westview, Island House and Rivercross buildings during the closing months of 2007.

On January 17, 2008 NYS Division of Housing and Community Renewal Commissioner Deborah VanAmerongen met with members of the Rivercross Board of Directors. Subsequent to that meeting, the Rivercross Board issued an update memo (under its resident apartment doors) to its shareholders stating that “the DHCR Commissioner has been “charged with resolving” the ESDC tax bill program”.

As per the Rivercross Board memo,VanAmerongen stated she would be in contact with the ESDC and was committed to getting Rivercross a response by next week. Presumably her efforts would also impact the bills issued also to Westview and Island House.

  1. Hmmm, Can you say "too little, too late?"

    Previous Commissioners were on the Island and could be seen eating at Trellis and riding the Tram. How come she is never here ??? Who is driving this train??? Soon to be a train wreck.

    Now the promises - - let's see what happens in a week. I bet a lot more of nothing!
