During the break, Zhuang asks which agency handles a district project where a contractor took $4 million, left the building half finished, and the owner is affected; Tigani says it is likely DCWP and offers to email Commissioner Levine on her behalf.

Susan Zhuang

So the other question I have is, I have one building, the contractors, the owner.

Susan Zhuang

So this is, I don't know which department I should go.

Ahmed Tigani

It probably would be DCWP.

Ahmed Tigani

If you send me an email, I'll reach out to Commissioner Levine, and it's probably going to be DCWP.

Susan Zhuang

DCWP?

Susan Zhuang

Yeah.

Susan Zhuang

Because they have a project there in my district.

Susan Zhuang

They did half done, and the owner of the building gave $4 million to the contractor to finish the project.

Susan Zhuang

Yeah.

Susan Zhuang

It's half done.

Ahmed Tigani

Yeah.

Ahmed Tigani
