A judge halted a Rockland County hotel from accepting migrants bused from
New York City by issuing a temporary restraining order on Tuesday.

The Armoni Inn has been barred from housing migrants at their hotel � at
least for now � after Orangetown officials took them to court over the
city�s plan to ship asylum seekers from Big Apple shelters to hotels in Rockland and Orange counties.

Since Friday�s announcement by City Hall, local officials in both counties
have voiced condemnation and residents have expressed fear and outrage.

State Supreme Court Judge Christie D�Alessio sided with Orangetown Tuesday
when she issued a temporary restraining order that stops the hotel from
turning into a shelter for non-transient guests, according to court
documents.

The order also slammed the brakes on the hotel making any changes without
the proper permits.

The defendants in the legal action, made up of three LLCs, and Orangetown
are due back in court Monday at 9:30 a.m. where D�Alessio will hear oral arguments on whether to issue a preliminary injunction.

The hotel staff had no comment Tuesday and the hotel owner could not be
reached for comment. No migrants were at the hotel Tuesday night.

City Hall spokesperson Fabien Levy said in a Tuesday night statement that
the city will let the legal process play out in relation to the Armoni
Inn, but said �our plan is still to move a small number of asylum seekers
to Orange County tomorrow, barring any security issues.�

The Acting Department of Social Services Commissioner Molly Park said
during a City Council hearing Monday the city-run busing program would
begin this week.

�I believe we anticipate for it to launch this week, but again this is a situation that is evolving rapidly on the ground,� Park said.

Orangetown argued Armoni Inn and Suites does not have the proper building
and zoning approvals to house the migrants because they would be staying
at the hotel for an extended period.

Orangetown Supervisor Teresa Kenny said Monday the town estimated about
340 single adults would reside at the hotel, noting the hotel cannot allow guests to stay longer than 30 days, per town code.

Before Orangetown�s legal action, Rockland County Executive Ed Day
declared a state of emergency over the weekend in an effort to stop the
asylum seekers.

Levy, in his Tuesday night statement, slammed Day over his resistance to
the city�s migrant relocation plan.

�The Rockland County executive has already shown he is incapable of
managing less than � of 1% of the asylum seekers who have come to New York City, even with New York paying for shelter, food, and services, and all
this temporary order shows is that he is incapable of demonstrating a
shred of the humane and compassionate care New York City has shown over
the past year,� said Levy.

Orange County Executive Steve Neuhaus issued a similar emergency
declaration late Monday that would prohibit hotels, motels and other
short-term rentals from allowing migrants to stay there.
