Following years of turmoil, Councilwoman Joann Ariola has negotiated with the city’s Department of Housing and Development (HPD) to take the necessary steps to remove the co-op board of Dayton Beach Park, bringing an end to a saga that has left tenants and shareholders in limbo for over a decade.
The board at the sprawling 1156-unit city-subsidized Mitchell-Lama property at 8600 Shore Front Pkwy. in Rockaway Beach has been locked in a legal battle with the city since 2018, litigation that allowed the board to block any elections to replace it.
