Alternate housing costs during elevator replacementSep 13, 2016

Anyone know if co-op must pay for housing if shareholder has no family/friends to stay with during time of new elevator installation?

Are there different situations if s/h is a veteran and/or deemed disabled?

If s/h is older, but can walk up stairs, albeit slower than younger person, must co-op pay for alternate housing costs?

Any place to find out this info?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Alternate Housing - Elevator - Ned in Toronto, Canada Sep 15, 2016

I don't believe they are under any obligation to pay for alternate housing costs however, they are under obligation to keep the elevators in good working order so you should be pleased that they are. Here's a great article from Habitat regarding what buildings can do to ease the situation. Find out if your building is making any of these plans. http://www.habitatmag.com/Archive/295-December-2012/Elevator-Replacement

If a veteran or disabled, you would have to check with those authorities. Here is the link for Disability Rights New York http://www.drny.org/
