Three NYPD employees who accepted gifts from the Queens Library settled their cases Monday.
Former Queens Library President and CEO Thomas Galante provided NYPD Chief of Housing James Secreto and a former NYPD chief four meals between April 2012 and Nov. 2013, the city's Conflict of Interest Board announced. Each meal was valued at more than $100.
An assistant chief with the department also accepted three meals for herself and one for her husband from Dec. 2012 to Nov. 2013.
All three paid a $1,500 fine each.
The board said Galante was acting on behalf of the library when he purchased the meals.
It also says the city police department officials violated the city's conflict of interest law, which bans public servants from using their position for personal gain.
Galante was fired in 2014 for alleged misuse of funds.
