New York City shells out around $300,000 per year for NYPD overtime pay and Sanitation (DSNY) worker services for the annual Staten Island St. Patrick’s Parade, the Advance has learned.
The financial breakdown of services was compiled by City Comptroller Brad Lander’s office after the Staten Island Pride Center — which every year has been denied the right to march at the yearly celebration of Irish heritage under its own banner — requested the information.
