The question is what was Kevin Sheekey working on in March 2007 that was so hush-hush<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Deputy Mayor Kevin Sheekey — who’s laying the groundwork for a possible presidential run by Mayor Bloomberg — released 18 months of his private schedules yesterday containing more than 600 passages that were blacked out.<\/em><\/p>\n

Records of every meeting Sheekey had on nine days in March 2007 were redacted.<\/em><\/p>\n

City lawyers took markers to virtually every page of Sheekey’s schedules covering Jan. 16, 2006 to June 29, 2007, a period when the Bloomberg presidential rumors were gaining traction.<\/em><\/p>\n

In all, The Post counted 626 redactions.<\/em><\/p>\n

Stu Loeser, the mayor’s spokesman, said the schedules released under a Freedom of Information Act request filed last year conformed to the law by withholding information that was personal or security-related.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Entries are redacted for personal or security reasons,” said Loeser. “If a lunch or an afternoon cup of coffee is personal and not city business, it gets redacted.”<\/em><\/p>\n

. . .<\/em><\/p>\n

City workers can’t engage in politics on government time, but are free to do what they want on their own time.<\/em><\/p>\n

Doug Muzzio of Baruch College said the redactions raised an obvious question: “What is he doing during those hours?”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
