Peekskill council passes slate of event, infrastructure and policy resolutions
Summary
At its March 23 meeting the council approved Resolutions J1–J16 covering street closures, event permits, landscape professional services, summer camp transportation, the tax-collection authorization, zoning referrals for cannabis rules and other routine business; all items recorded in the meeting packet were adopted by voice vote.
The council considered a package of resolutions (J1–J16) spanning community events, professional services, license agreements and policy statements. Highlights included authorization to close Bank Street for the Peekskill Farmers Market (J1); permission to close city streets for a Cinco de Mayo celebration (J2); professional services agreements for Depot Park Phase 2 (J3); a transportation contract for summer day camp (J4); authorization to collect 2026 taxes (J5); scheduling a public hearing and referral for cannabis zoning text amendments (J6); license amendments for Trinity Cruises and RMS (J7–J8); consent to Planning Commission lead-agency status for the floating solar project at 1000 Lindbergh Place (J9); and a pilot agreement for 901 Main Street (J12).
Several resolutions expressed policy positions: a letter of support for the City of Kingston to streamline SEQRA for certain housing projects (J15) and a council resolution opposing NYSEG’s proposed 2026 rate increase (J16). Each resolution was moved and approved on a voice vote with no recorded opposition in the transcript. The council’s clerk entered votes and the mayor declared each item carried.
