Oversight   Filed, by Committee   Action details Not available Int 0951-2024 * Lincoln Restler     Comptroller audits of community boards and public administrators. Introduction This bill would modify the New York City Comptroller’s auditing duty as it would allow the Comptroller to treat all community boards as a single combined agency and all public administrators’ offices as a single combined agency. When the Comptroller treats multiple offices or boards as a single combined agency, the Comptroller would have to send a copy of the draft audit or audit report to each office or board that is covered by the audit and would have to provide each such office or board, in writing, a reasonable deadline for its review and response.

Laid Over by Committee   Action details Not available Int 0953-2024 * Lincoln Restler     Campaign contributions delivered by intermediaries and recordkeeping requirements for fundraisers. Introduction This bill would expand the definition of an “intermediary” to include the use of personalized hyperlinks as a method of delivering contributions. The definition of intermediary would also be revised to remove the exception for multiple hosts of campaign sponsored fundraising events, which previously allowed just one individual to be designated as the host, as well as the exception for fundraisers paid for by the campaign. It also requires the Campaign Finance Board’s (CFB) fundraising platform to include a function that allows candidate to generate a report of all contributions submitted using a specific personalized hyperlink. The bill would require candidates to maintain records for all fundraising events, which would include specific details about the events. The campaigns would provide these records to the CFB within the CFB’s reporting deadlines.
