City paid Lage Management Corp. $170G for cleanings despite investigation alleging it cheated workers out of wages
City agencies are spending big money prettying up official vehicles at a car wash empire that is currently being investigated for alleged dirty labor practices, the Daily News has learned.
The city has paid Lage Management Corp. more than $170,000 for car cleanings since 2010, including $12,207 in the last three months, says Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, who wants the business relationship to stop.
“It’s better to have a dirty car than a dirty conscience,” argued de Blasio, who has written to Mayor Bloomberg to demand an immediate end to city use of dozens of Lage car washes in the five boroughs.
