Add Public Advocate Bill de Blasio to the list of 2013 contenders slamming Mayor Michael Bloomberg over the news that Deputy Mayor Robert Steel actually resides in posh Greenwich, CT.
“Top officials living outside the five boroughs are a recipe for an out of touch Administration,” Mr. de Blasio said in a statement. “I have great respect for Deputy Mayor Steel, but the Executive Order requiring high-level officials to live in the city could not be more clear or correct. The Mayor needs to explain why these basic rules have apparently gone ignored.”
