The proceeds from the sale of the property were placed into an escrow fund at the request of the New York Attorney Generals Office. A new lot was located and purchased in 2018. In 2018, the organization hired an architect to create plans for a new animal adoption center. The plans were approved by the New York City Department of Buildings 16 months later. In March of 2020, the organization hired a general contractor to commence construction. A few months later, the contractors principal died of COVID. A new general contractor has since been hired and construction has commenced. At this time the building is largely completed. Further, the building is now connected to the major utilities. However, as of the date of this filing, the organization is waiting anxiously for the city to issue a certificate of occupancy so they can occupy the building.Ordinarily, the organization receives most, if not all, of its support from the public. The public support percentages calculated in Schedule A, Part III, Sections C & D are not representative of the organizations mission and are currently skewed due to the proceeds from the sale of the previous property remaining invested while construction languished due largely to the COVID pandemic and the resultant shortages and cost increases of building materials. Further skewing the public support test is a contribution of publicly traded securities, given by an extremely generous individual, totaling over $1M.Once construction is completed, the organization has occupied the building and the organization has resumed its program operations, the public support test calculated on Schedule A, Part III, Sections C & D, will then begin to move toward the acceptable range for public charities.At this time, the organization feels it has taken all practical measures and remains patient until they are given permission to occupy and operate within their building.
