The Bronx Democrat on the verge of becoming the next Assembly speaker paid his baby mama $2,500 from his campaign treasury — raising ethical concerns following disgraced Sheldon Silver's corruption bust, The Post has learned.
Assemblyman Carl Heastie's campaign made two payments of $1,250 in 2011 to aspiring model Alvita "Lan" Robertson, the mother of his 5-year-old daughter, to design a campaign Web site.
Robertson subcontracted the work to someone else — and still got paid.
"I was the designer who built the Web site," Jimmie Solomon told The Post. "Lan just orchestrated the project because she knows him [Heastie]."
Solomon typically charges $500 to $1,000 to build a site. Robertson merely provided some Web copy and kept the rest of the payment, he said.
The money came from private donations made to the Friends of Carl E. Heastie re-election campaign account.
Robertson and Heastie both confirmed their professional and personal relationship.
"It may have seemed strange that he was hiring me to do work [on the campaign Web site]. I never worked directly with the staff," Robertson, who was Heastie's romantic partner for 10 years, told The Post.
Heastie denied claims he steered Robertson campaign work to help satisfy his child-support obligations.
"Ms. Roberston was paid for professional Web-design services related to the campaign Web site," a Heastie spokesman said.
