DCPI has more than doubled in size in the past two years. Some of its recent hires have histories of dishonesty and misconduct.

In a statement, Brooklyn Councilmember Lincoln Restler pointed to the contrast between the dcpi’s staffing surge and Mayor Eric Adams’s cuts to other city services, including hundreds of layoffs in the Department of Buildings. “It’s stunning to see the nypd Communications Department more than double to 86 staff while so many of our City agencies are struggling to fulfill their mandates without workers.”

    Move them to PR so they can’t cause more PR problems. Brilliant idea.

      And yet those people get to go on TV and they’re never challenged on their personal behaviour. Call peaceful protestors terrorists with a history like that.
