City Hall beefed up security at a pair of controversial Brooklyn migrant shelters after back-to-back, potentially gang-linked shootings rattled residents in the once-peaceful neighborhood over the weekend, officials told The Post Wednesday.

An additional 14 NYPD cops joined the four officers stationed near the twin shelters housing nearly 4,000 migrants along Hall and Ryerson streets in Clinton Hill starting Monday, officials said.

Metal detectors were installed Tuesday in the massive 47 Hall St. shelter near Park Avenue, adding to the scanners already standing in the Ryerson site a block away, according to City Hall.

But downsizing or moving the shelters — as demanded by concerned neighbors who protested Tuesday after the Sunday shootings near Brooklyn Navy Yard — is unlikely at best, said Mayor Eric Adams.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I wouldn't suppose the increased costs are being added on to the bill the taxpayers are forced to pay? :thud:
