PFDC authorizes $4,000 for downtown waterfront shuttle pilot
Summary
After BID and business representatives agreed to contribute, the PFDC approved a $4,000 allocation to help fund a three-year downtown waterfront shuttle pilot; the motion passed by voice vote.
The Peekskill Facilities Development Corporation voted to allocate $4,000 toward a downtown waterfront shuttle pilot after BID representatives and local businesses pledged contributions.
A board member moved to allocate the funds, stating, "I'll make a motion to allocate $4,000 toward the shuttle program." The motion was seconded and the board voted in favor by voice vote with Chair calling 'Aye.'
Members discussed a funding mix that included $4,000 from the BID, city funds for bus wrapping (estimated $13,000–$15,000), and potential business sponsorships that would receive signage on the shuttle. Board members asked staff to prepare a simple memorandum of understanding for transfers and to limit the PFDC contribution to $4,000.
