De Blasio finds $164M in NYC labor ‘savings’ by pushing union payouts to 2022
New York Post
October 29, 2020
While the mayor also touted the postponed DC37 payouts as “labor savings,” budget experts said that characterization is misleading.“You can’t pretend that delays save money,” said Andrew Rein, president of the independent Citizens Budget Commission.
“The city needs to restructure its finances to be stable. We have to find enough savings in this budget so that the money we collect can pay for the services we need,” he explained.
Rein said it was a mistake for de Blasio to rely on an uncertain federal bailout to solve the city’s cash crunch.
“Federal aid, we’re worthy of it. It’s welcome, we should get some. We don’t know when, We don’t know how much.
“Counting on it to solve all of our problems is a dangerous thing because it will take the pressure off doing what we need to do which is restructure the city’s finances so we can have a stable government that we can afford.
“If we don’t find those savings in the right way and in a recurring way that happens year after year, we’re just going to make our problems worse, not better,” Rein said.

Charter Revision Commission Hears Expert Testimony on City Budgeting and Contracting
Gotham Gazette
March 13, 2019
The 2019 Charter Revision Commission, which is looking at ways to improve the city’s central governing document, heard suggestions on Monday from community-based organizations, fiscal watchdogs, and former and current city officials about potential changes to the city’s byzantine budgeting process.Over the course of more than three hours, experts weighed in on the city’s flawed contract procurement system, the severe lack of transparency in spending on capital projects, the possibility of creating a rainy day fund for the city, and measures to generally improve accountability in city spending. There was general agreement that city procurement needs to be overhauled to make it more efficient and transparent, but broader opposition to changes in the budgeting process and the administration’s ability to set revenues and expenditures.
