Case Reopened After DRA Sent Notice to Incorrect Address

March 18, 2019

LVT Number: #29999

Rent-stabilized tenant complained of a decrease in services. Tenant didn't respond to the DRA's request for additional information, and the DRA's mailing came back indicating that tenant had vacated the apartment. So the DRA dismissed the complaint. Tenant appealed, and the case was reopened. Tenant's building was part of a complex at 12-16 Park Avenue, Spring Valley, NY. Tenant's apartment address was 16 Park Avenue, Apt. B5. DRA mailings were sent to 12 Park Avenue, Apt. B5.

Based on delivery to the wrong address, there was an irregularity in a vital matter and the DHCR could modify its prior order under Rent Stabilization Code Section 2527.8.
