Commissioner Sue Donoghue states that the current headcount of employees in the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation is around 4,500.

  • Council Member Shekar Krishnan notes a proposed reduction of 400 positions in the Parks Department's budget for the next fiscal year.
  • Donoghue confirms this reduction will occur through attrition as employees leave the department.
  • The proposed staffing changes aim to bring the actual headcount closer to the budgeted level.

400 budgeted.
3:27:26
What is the actual head count on the books that you have right now for the Parks department?
Sue Donoghue
3:27:30
About 45100 employees.
Shekar Krishnan
3:27:31
45100.
3:27:34
So between what you currently have in actuality versus what the mayor has proposed for the next fiscal year, I'm seeing there's a 400 person reduction, 400 position reduction in thepox department budget.
3:27:46
Is that correct?
Sue Donoghue
3:27:47
They will that is the attrition peck.
3:27:48
And so as people leave, we will get closer to that headcount.
