New Interim NYCHA Chair Named

February 11th, 2019

It was reported this week that Mayor de Blasio will name the city’s Sanitation Commissioner, Kathryn Garcia, as interim NYCHA Chair. The post is temporary and the announcement of the interim chair comes only a week after it was revealed that City Hall and federal officials had an agreement in place, with strict timelines to clean up the scandal plagued authority. Ms. Garcia will serve in this role for two months, until a permanent replacement is chosen.
