The audit revealed $36.6 million in potential misuse of funds for small repair contracts, with vendors failing to provide proof that work was completed.
'We know for years and now really for decades, NYCHA has struggled and too-often failed to deliver the basic warranty of habitability,' said Comptroller Brad Lander.
Out of the 19 purchase orders for walling surrounding bathtubs, auditors found no evidence of work completion, despite $186,446.50 being paid.
NYCHA officials were unable to produce documentation confirming the completion of various repairs, indicating systemic issues in tracking and accountability.
