A coalition of elected officials and labor leaders is calling on the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation to immediately terminate all contracts with Griffin’s Landscaping, a city contractor whose owner, Glenn Griffin, was recently sentenced to two years in federal prison for bribery and illegal dumping as part of a $2.4 million environmental crime scheme.
Despite Griffin’s conviction and ongoing scrutiny, his Westchester-based company continues to hold two active contracts with the Parks Department worth a combined $15 million and has been awarded three upcoming contracts totaling an additional $25 million.
