Dear New Yorkers,
Like I always say, we can’t manage what we can’t measure. And as you may already know, here at the Comptroller’s office we love a good dashboard.
That’s why I’m excited to announce a new online transparency tool that shows how well City agencies are delivering services to New Yorkers. Using data from the Mayor’s Management Report and other City agency open data sources, this interactive dashboard shows whether agencies’ performance is improving, declining, or staying steady. |
Take your time toggling around and viewing the data by agency. I love how it provides a snapshot of how well City agencies are – or are not – meeting their goals.
Here are just some of the key data points revealed on the agency management dashboard: - Vehicle crashes killed more people on city streets last month, from 17 people in July to 27 people in August.
-
The Department of Design and Construction improved its on-time design and construction projects considerably in 2024, meeting its goals of 89% and 91% respectively, the highest in five years.
-
Complaints against police officers for force, abuse of authority, or other misconduct are up by 20%, from 4,703 in FY 2023 to 5,644 in FY 2024. Police responded to crimes in progress a minute and a half slower in the most recent quarter than this time last year.
John, it’s the responsibility of the Comptroller to hold City agencies accountable. This new tool helps us do just that.
From transparency tools like this dashboard, to my 4-point plan root out corruption in City procurement, I’m doing everything I can to achieve a more honest, better-run City government.
Thanks, Brad |
