Opinion: NYC's COPA Bill Isn't Ready for Primetime Yet

Throughout my career, I have been a huge supporter of empowering tenants to become homeowners, which is why it may seem odd that I do not support Intro. 902, or the Community Opportunity to Purchase Act (COPA). New York City absolutely needs to advance tenant and non-profit ownership, but I do not believe COPA is the way to achieve this laudable goal.
