Episode Description

791 is the number of staff the City Comptroller can employ for the vital task of auditing City agencies, managing the $306 billion pension fund, registering contracts, analyzing the budget, monitoring the economy—essentially serving as the people's check on the Mayor's office. This episode of What's the Data Point involves a conversation between the 'Three C's', NYS Comptroller Tom DiNapoli, NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, and NYC Comptroller-elect Mark Levine—with the former providing their guidance and wisdom, and the latter his plans for the office. Listen in for a robust chat on what shape the City budget and economy are in, what's coming down from the federal government, and how each thinks about the fiscal contours of Mayor-elect Mamdani's proposed affordability programs.
