Below are some of the resources I mentioned at last night’s meeting, and some info on the Thrive NYC issue. My contact info is below if anyone wants to reach out. Those with audit suggestions should also reach out to me even if they submit their suggestions electronically. I’ll flag this for Audit Bureau Management to get faster action in considering it.
1) Here’s the info on Thrive NYC –
The investigation involving ThriveNYC was done under the Stringer Administration. You can see the letter about it here.
The spending was accounted for but there was no meaningful tracking of how effective the use of the money was. There were also inconsistencies in how the funding was labeled within the city’s budget.
