Council Member Chris Banks inquires about the split between contracted and in-house spending on key pillar compliance areas such as mold, heating, and elevators. NYCHA's CFO, Annika Lescott-Martinez, provides partial information on the budget allocation.

  • Around $35 million is budgeted for vendor work across all pillar areas
  • Staffing costs for pillar areas are higher than vendor costs, but exact figures were not immediately available
  • NYCHA agreed to provide more detailed information on staffing costs at a later time

Okay.

NYCHA has shared that it's relying on external vendors as well as in house capacity to meet the key pillar compliance areas such as mold, heating, and elevators.

What's the split between the contracted and in house spending on the pillar area?

Thank you for the question councilmember.
3:13:28
So across all of the pillar areas in our budget have around $35,000,000 for vendor work.
3:13:35
And in terms of staffing, it is certainly more than that.
3:13:40
In terms of staffing across the pillar areas, I can get back to you with that amount, sorry.
