Halloran to DSNY: 'Solid Job'

The Department of Sanitation isn’t returning the compliment to Councilman Dan Halloran, R-Whitestone.

Halloran today said the agency did a “solid job,” along with the Department of Transportation, on their job clearing snow from the streets.

DSNY in turn said they had “no comment” in response to the Councilman’s assessment of their work, posted on facebook. 

 “The streets are to clear today, 7 hours after snow stopped falling, with 10 inches on the ground in most parts of the district,” said Halloran, adding “[Department of Transportation] and Sanitation did a solid job and the pre-snow was significantly better.”

“Amazing what a does for things,” the Bayside-area politician threw in.

Halloran in December with allegations that some DSNY supervisors in Queens and Brooklyn deliberately staved snow removal following a major storm on Dec. 26.

The allegations did during a City Council hearing on the performance of several city agencies— most notably DSNY— coping with the aftermath of that blizzard.

DOT also had nothing specific in reply to Halloran's post.

The City's , as well as the US Attorney's Office, are both investigating the alleged DSNY slowdown.
