Head Matter:
John Andrews, Respondent-Appellant, v Robert Z. Srogi, as Commissioner of Assessment of the City of Syracuse, Appellant-Respondent. (Appeal No. 2.)

Opinion:
Order unanimously modified, by deleting the award of additional allowances, pursuant to CPLR 8303, and, as modified, affirmed, without costs. Memorandum: In this tax review proceeding, the court granted petitioner additional costs and allowances under CPLR 8303 (subd [a], par 2) and under subdivision 1 of section 722 of the Real Property Tax Law. While the award of costs under subdivision 1 of section 722 of the Real Property Tax Law was proper, additional costs and allowances under the CPLR may not be granted in a tax review proceeding (Grant Co. v Srogi, 71 AD2d 457).
