Randy Mastro, Mayor Eric Adams’ pick to be the city’s next top lawyer, will face a gauntlet of questions from the City Council during a Tuesday morning hearing amid controversy over his nomination.
City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams and Council Member Keith Powers, who chairs the council’s Rules Committee, will lead the proceeding, scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. on Aug. 27. The hearing precedes the council’s upcoming Sept. 14 vote on Mastro’s nomination to corporation council; the body holds approval power over the position.
