Ithaca activists and politicians fight for city to opt into the Emergency Tenant Protection Act, a 1974 New York State rent stabilization and tenant protection law.
Gathering in frigid temperatures Thursday morning, over 30 supporters of the Ithaca Tenants Union used court packing strategies to protest fourteen local households up for eviction.
The City of Ithaca’s Planning & Economic Development Committee voted to open Right to Renew legislation last week which will provide tenants with greater lease security.
