    Is that a sum of the salaries of police officers stationed in subways? I don’t see how else they could spend that much

    Edit: I now see that it says extra, so how?

        Consultants to make the plan, contractors to do the preliminary work. Throw in a reorg and/or change in scope and you’re there

      It’s probably the overtime they paid officers to stand there and play Candy Crush. They will literally stand near the door, without helping, while someone is struggling with a stroller or shopping bags.
