§ 7-08 Appeal Process.
RCNY § 7-08
If the authorized applicant's initial application or an approved applicant's final application is disapproved by the Office, or if the approved applicant disagrees with the amount of the tax credit granted by the Office, the applicant may appeal such determination. In the case of an appeal from a disapproval of an initial or final application, such appeal shall be made by sending a letter to the City of New York Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting, Attn: Commissioner, 1697 Broadway, New York, NY 10019, within thirty (30) days from the date of the denial letter issued by the Office. In the case of an appeal from a determination of the amount of the tax credit, such appeal shall be made by sending a letter to the same address as listed above within thirty (30) days from the date of issuance of the certificate of tax credit. Failure to request an appeal within thirty (30) days will finalize the denial decision and/or the amount of the tax credit. Upon receipt of a timely letter of appeal, the Commissioner will appoint an appeal officer within the Office to review. Such appeal officer will make a report on the appeal to the Commissioner. The Commissioner or his designee shall issue a final order within sixty (60) days of the report. A copy of the final order will be issued to the appellant within ten (10) days after the date the Commissioner or his designee renders the final order.
