Carone said he will join the mayor’s 2025 re-election campaign after he departs in January.
“This was always the plan. The plan always was to run the transition, it was a full-time job, and then stay a year and a half,” Carone told The Post in a phone interview on Monday.
“My job would be to build a team and build a culture and make sure we had a calm way about handling drama. We stay calm. We don’t get nervous. We don’t get upset,” he added.“I truly don’t know,” he said when asked what he will do after and whether he has a job lined up.Frank Carone is stepping down as Mayor Eric Adams’ chief of staff before the end of the year.A longtime Brooklyn Democratic Party lawyer, Carone served as Adams’ chief counsel on his transition team last fall.
“We had an agreement and he was gonna set the foundation for me. He did that and I thank him for his year of commitment,” Adams told reporters outside City Hall late Monday. Both Adams and Carone declined to say who would replace him – but Carone said City Hall is looking internally at candidates. Carone said the plan was always for him to leave after a year and a half.Carone’s departure comes amidst reports that the city is facing a potential $10 billion deficit in the years to come thanks to rising costs and federal stimulus dollars drying up.“I think we knew when he took the job he was going to be staying long,” said a longtime operative.
