Landlord Didn't File Application in Time

Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes based on the installation of a new roof, pointing, and waterproofing. The DRA disallowed any increase for the roof installation because landlord had failed to file the MCI application within two years following completion of the roof installation. Landlord appealed, claiming that the "final phase'' of the roof work had begun within two years of her filing. The DHCR denied landlord's PAR. The DRA had asked landlord for information on the completion date while landlord's application was pending. Landlord had stated an earlier completion date than the one she gave in her PAR for the ``final phase.'' And landlord never identified or distinguished the roof work in phases, or submitted any proof of payment for the "final phase'' of the work.
