Quarterly Report: Fourth Quarter 2023

Executive Summary

When OIG investigates and sustains allegations of misconduct, it issues summary reports of investigations to the appropriate authority, City management officials, and/or the Mayor’s Office, with investigative findings and recommendations for corrective action and discipline. Narrative summaries of sustained administrative investigations (i.e., violations of the City’s Personnel Rules, Debarment Rules, and Ethics Ordinance, and the resulting department or agency actions) are released in quarterly reports. OIG’s investigations resulting in criminal sanctions or civil recovery actions are summarized in quarterly reports following public action (e.g., indictment) and updated in ensuing quarterly reports as court developments warrant.

OIG’s performance audits, programmatic inquiries, and advisories are directed to the appropriate agency for comment and response and are then published on the OIG website. From time to time, OIG also issues notifications to a City department for attention and comment; those notifications are summarized, along with any response, in the ensuing quarterly report.

OIG’s data analysis and visualization are available on its Information Portal.
