Gov. Cuomo had MTA Use $30 Million on Tile Instead of Subway Repairs
Elected officials have no accountability to the tax payers...
Mary Chastain reported abut it on the Legal Insurrection website:
"The MTA board is not thrilled: The move now has some on the MTA board seeing red. “We could have found much better uses for that money — especially because most people are speeding through the tunnels and not paying attention to what is on the walls,' seethed board member Andrew Albert.
A second member added, “This is exactly the type of distraction, expense and use of the MTA by the governor as a marketing tool that is at the root of many of our problems.' To make matters worse, the order from Cuomo in November 2016, months before New York City’s 'Summer of Hell.' The need for repairs caught up to the city and the MTA had to throw out $800 million to make emergency fixes."
