In Rockland County, the city's primary migrant-services contractor, DocGo, billed the city $833,340 for 4,902 vacant rooms over 61 nights.
The audit concluded that the Department of Housing Preservation and Development failed to exercise sufficient oversight of a no-bid $432 million contract given to DocGo.
City housing officials justified the expenses as necessary preparations in the face of an unprecedented migrant crisis, despite not using the booked rooms.
