No-bid migrant contractor DocGo's successor reaped $450M in NYC taxpayer money | 18 Oct 2024 | A disaster response company that replaced the controversial DocGo as a migrant services provider for New York City has cost taxpayers more than $450 million over the last year, The Post has learned. Councilman Justin Brannan (D-Brooklyn) called on the city and state comptrollers to investigate Garner Environmental Services' contract in a scathing Thursday letter exclusively obtained by The Post. Garner had previously inked a $30 million emergency services standby contract with the city. When City Hall ended its $432 million no-bid contract with DocGo in May after months of backlash, it handed the troubled company's responsibilities for sheltering the city's tens of thousands of migrants to Garner. But Brannan, the council's finance committee chair, who's running for city comptroller, argued that Garner has reaped nearly $457 million, according to city records -- more than DocGo's widely criticized $432 million contract -- and without being meaningfully audited and scrutinized.
