Children Get Shorted For Bronx Center Funds Abuse
A South Bronx day care center being investigated by the city for financial improprieties will lose its city financing next week and have to close, the fourth day care facility to be shuttered in the neighborhood in four years, officials said Wednesday.
The city’s funds for the Lucille Murray Child Development Center are to cease Jan. 11 because of what city officials say has been widespread mismanagement, including hundreds of thousands of dollars in missing funds.
The city’s Administration for Children’s Services has decided against hiring another firm to supply children’s services there because it says the building is in substandard condition and should not be used for day care any longer.
