Two Police Department officials turned into diplomats of sorts during a contentious oversight hearing by the City Council’s transportation committee on parking issues yesterday
Susan Petito, assistant commissioner of intergovernmental affairs at the Police Department, elaborated further on the non-quota policy that brings in more than $500 million a year to the city.
“A requirement is not what we’re talking about,” Petito said. “We’re talking about assessing what has happened in the past for purposes of planning for the future.”
Asked about the quota allegation at a Brooklyn event, Mayor Bloomberg explained. “We have productivity measures. We’re always going to have productivity measures. You work under a productivity measure,” Bloomberg said to reporters. “If you don’t write anything, I would suggest you’re gonna have a big problem.”
