Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Section 803 of chapter 34 of the New York city charter is amended by adding new subdivisions h and i to read as follows:
h. No later than 90 days after the enactment of the local law that added this subdivision, and annually thereafter, the commissioner shall submit to the council a report on total overtime hours recorded and total overtime paid to employees of the New York city housing authority for the prior calendar year. The data in such report shall be aggregated by borough and housing development and disaggregated by department and job title. Such report shall not contain any personally identifying information. Nothing within this subdivision shall limit the authority of the commissioner nor prevent the commissioner from reporting on any additional relevant information not specifically identified herein. In developing such report, the department shall seek the cooperation and assistance of the New York city housing authority.
i. No later than 90 days after the enactment of the local law that added this subdivision, and annually thereafter, the commissioner shall submit to the council a report on the number of small procurement contracts, as defined by New York city housing authority procurement rules, awarded during the prior calendar year. Such report shall include the dollar value of each contract, a description of the goods or services procured, the name of the vendor and the date the contract was awarded. The data in such report shall be aggregated by borough and housing development. Such report shall also include an analysis regarding whether or not any housing development may have awarded small procurement contracts in an effort to avoid compliance with New York city housing authority procurement rules. Nothing within this subdivision shall limit the authority of the commissioner nor prevent the commissioner from reporting on any additional relevant information not specifically identified herein. In developing such report, the department shall seek the cooperation and assistance of the New York city housing authority.
§ 2. This local law takes effect immediately.
