Discontinuance of Rooftop Trampoline Was Minor Condition

(Decision submitted by Jeffrey Goldman, Esq., attorney for the landlord.)

Rent-stabilized tenants complained of a reduction in building-wide services after landlord ordered them to stop using a trampoline and other recreational equipment on the roof of its 12-story apartment building. The DRA ruled against tenants. The conditions complained of were de minimis--that is, minor--in nature, in the absence of lease clauses providing for such services or formal facilities provided by landlord.
