High Court Rules Freightway District Valid for Parking Garage
The New York State Court of Appeals unanimously upheld the Freightway Special Assessment District, confirming that commercial properties could be enhanced by better public parking despite benefits mainly to commuters. The ruling preserves about $1 million in taxes over 20 years and supports the village's funding of the garage despite challenges from Scarsdale Chateaux and others.
