The Poughkeepsie City Council voted to approve a consent agenda that included a resolution amending the 2025 budget to reallocate funding for certain positions, a 2025–2029 city paving plan, proposed right‑of‑way regulations and a resolution supporting the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Scenic Byway.
The vote cleared four listed resolutions after a motion and second, with the presiding officer calling for the ayes.
