After the city released a proposed contract for new jails in Queens and in the Bronx that would be completed four years after the 2027 Council-mandated

The City Record released Monday included contracts for almost $7 billion in total to construct the Queens and Bronx borough jails and would allow for construction to stretch into 2031. The Campaign to Close Rikers held a press conference Wednesday afternoon to demand action to advance the closure by the legally mandated deadline.

The city’s Department of Citywide Administrative Services has scheduled a public hearing on the proposed contract on Thursday, May 16 — before the contract is likely to be finalized. “We’ve actually seen this administration from the jump just simply undermine any effort to bring that down. There are strategies and solutions and organizations begging to do this work,” Nurse said.

French-Marcelin said that they were expecting even more severe cuts earlier this year, but “it is not what it should be, which should be an expansion of services.”
