This work will be done in consultation with the Deputy Commissioner of Legal Matters and the Nunez monitor to meet the requirements of the consent judgment and associated court orders.

Furthermore, the candidate will oversee the agency’s initiative to civilianize certain posts across the Department by developing a plan to minimize the reliance on uniform staff for tasks that can be performed by civilian personnel; such plan will be in consultation with the Chief of Staff, the Deputy Commissioner of Budget and Finance and the Deputy Commissioner of Human Resources.
