Yankee Owners Due Tax Rebate
State Supreme Court Justice William A Sarasite ruled Yankee Stadium and the Bronx deteriorated enough over seven years to justify a large tax rebate for the New York Yankees, potentially $560,000 including interest. He cut the city’s $5 million assessment, lowered the stadium’s land value and the formers taxes from $1.877 million to $1.358 million, noting the team’s losses during the period. The city may appeal. renovations and lighting upgrades are planned nearby.
