The wife of Monkees vocalist Micky Dolenz was arrested Friday

NEW YORK – The wife of Monkees vocalist Micky Dolenz was arrested Friday on charges that she defrauded an affordable housing program in New York City.

Authorities in the city's Department of Investigation said Donna Quinter, 54, illegally received $136,866 in government rental subsidies for an apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

The subsidies were supposed to go to middle-income families living in the city year-round who were in danger of being forced out by gentrification.

Investigators say Quinter failed to disclose that she was sharing the apartment with a friend who paid rent. The home also wasn't her only residence. Since marrying Dolenz in 2002, the former flight attendant has lived with her husband in Bell Canyon, Calif., an exclusive gated community outside Los Angeles.

Quinter surrendered to authorities in New York on Friday morning. She was expected to be arraigned later on larceny charges in a Manhattan court. see more here-

Who Cleans Up The Town

When you talk about cleaning up a town, one might be thinking of getting rid of the people not so welcomed; not just picking up the trash they leave behind. For Norman Steisel, it was his mission to clean up the town. It did not just stop there. He became the city's first Deputy Mayor in 1990. He was responsible for the out-sourcing of numerous governmental functions: fleet procurement, vehicle and facility maintenance and treasury functions that lead to the city saving upwards of $30,000,000.00 a year!

"
After nearly eight years of managing New York City's mountainous waste disposal system, Sanitation Commissioner, Norman Steisel, is leaving public service for the investment business. He deserves warm appreciation for mastering a job that is truly central to the city's survival. While making progress in the day-to-day clean-up of New York City."
