(Getty, NYU, Tax Equity Now) After more than a year of frustrated efforts in the state court system, Tax Equity Now New York’s latest attempt at property tax reform is an appeal to the federal government. In a letter sent Thursday, the coalition implored the Department of Justice to challenge the city’s tax structure under the Fair Housing Act.

For years, New York City’s property tax system has come under fire because homeowners in poor and middle-class neighborhoods often pay more than people who own more valuable homes in tonier parts of town. Mayor de Blasio, who owns two homes in Park Slope. Brooklyn, and benefits from the current tax system, ran for office in 2013 on a platform devoted to ending New York’s “Tale of Two Cities” and vowed early on in his City Hall tenure to do something about property tax inequities.
