“According to Butkovitz, the reduction in non-emergency calls to 911 has been virtually non-existent, if at all.”
“In addition, the Controller’s report found that the 311 System costs taxpayers $6 million a year, not $2.8 million as stated by the Administration.”

In response, Negrin’s staff said: “more than 3,000 customer satisfaction surveys show an average customer satisfaction rating of 92 percent.”
