Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s $124. 7 billion spending plan unveiled this week includes a plan to cut 100 uniformed officers’ jobs patrolling the city’s green spaces this summer, The Post has learned. The proposed budget would effectively cut more than a third of the roughly 300 boots-on-the-ground Parks Enforcement Patrol (PEP) staff for the entire city, critics said – and create a massive gap in the city’s public safety system.
