“Working together, my office and the Kings County District Attorney were able to recoup money from Florence XVI Century Marble in order to pay the appropriate wages owed to these workers. This order sends a clear message to contractors who might otherwise ignore prevailing wage laws: the City is determined to find you and make you pay employees the money they were rightly due.
