Councilman Justin Brannan criticized the contract with Garner Environmental Services, claiming taxpayers are burdened with $450 million in costs without sufficient oversight or savings benefiting New Yorkers.
Brannan's letter highlighted that while the Mayor promised savings, the costs incurred by Garner have inflated drastically, undermining any anticipated benefits for the city.
With the prior contractor DocGo's issues, the city transitioned responsibilities to Garner, yet critics are sounding alarms over lack of competitive bidding and accountability in the process.
As New York City faces unprecedented migrant influx, the shortcomings of handling contracts for essential services like shelter and food raise serious concerns about fiscal responsibility.
