NYCHA Plumber’s Overtime Scandal | Real Estate News

Published 1 month ago
Description

NYCHA plumber Jakub Markowski racked up over $465,000 in earnings last year—more than any other city worker—while logging nearly 2,600 hours of overtime, the highest ever recorded. Suspicion mounts as he allegedly ran two private plumbing businesses on the side, handling over 70 private jobs across Manhattan and Brooklyn through his companies. The Department of Buildings is investigating whether he violated rules by allowing unlicensed associates, like Robert Tarnawa, to handle licensed work. This comes amid a turbulent time for NYCHA, already reeling from past corruption scandals and a massive backlog of repairs affecting hundreds of thousands of residents.
