Mastro's Conflict of Interest: DOI Criticizes Ethics Board
Update: 2025-12-18
Description
First Deputy Mayor Randy Mastros legal representation of Madison Square Garden in a dispute with Charles Oakley was approved by the Conflicts of Interest Board, but a new DOI report claims this approval was incorrect. The boards advisory opinion, which allowed Mastro to continue working for MSG without pay, is now criticized for overlooking rules about city employees taking outside jobs. The DOI report suggests that the boards practice of keeping advisory opinions private undermines public trust and recommends a review of the guidance given to Mastro and other city attorneys with outside work.
