New York City’s Probation Department has cut programs, its workers gripe about low pay, and city government is in a budget crunch — but Probation Commissioner Juanita Holmes has a new, luxurious city-funded car.
Holmes travels in an $86,590 Ford Expedition Platinum, purchased in October from a dealership in Rockland County, city records show.
The Ford’s standard features include heated leather-trimmed “multi-contour” seats that vibrate with “Active Motion massage,” a high-end Bang & Olufsen stereo system with 22 speakers and a “panoramic” sun roof, the car maker says.
