Dear Town of Poughkeepsie Residents,
I am proud to present a 2027 budget that remains below the 2% state tax cap. With costs rising rapidly—from diesel fuel
to health insurance--it has taken hard work to achieve that goal. Deepest thanks to all the department heads, to
Comptroller Minal Patel, Legislative Aide Trevor Redl, and everyone who helped plan for a fiscally responsible and
successful 2027.
Strategic priorities are outlined on the next page. In 2025 and 2026 we took some very big, Rossi’s-sized bites out of the
municipal sandwich:
We developed our Town’s first capital plan, which accompanies this budget
We tackled the most urgent, long-deferred Water and Sewer infrastructure needs, including upgrades to the billing
system
We determined the best plan for a new Police & Courts Facility and completed feasibility and schematic design for a
modern, community-oriented facility at 1 Overocker Road
We made a plan to move Town Hall from 1 Overocker--to make way for Police & Courts--to 244 Boardman Road, a site
that will also house a Community Center including a gym, theater, meeting spaces, and community kitchen
We secured state funding for a multi-year initiative to envision a new future for the former K-Mart / Dutchess Plaza
site on Route 44; that site is now the proposed Brickyard BOA (Brownfield Opportunity Area) and as this budget goes
to press, the public engagement process is starting, with a public workshop scheduled for October 15 at Town Hall.

Having bitten off so much, next year we need to chew! In spring 2027, Town Hall will move to Boardman Road, where
the gym and fields are already open for community use, and other spaces will follow as they are ready. We will also break
ground in the spring on the Police & Courts renovation—a big project that will not be complete till the end of 2029. The
new buildings will significantly improve and expand our Town assets and services to residents. For a small-sized Town
government like ours, from the Supervisor’s and Comptroller’s offices to the Building and Recreation Departments (not
to mention everyone who needs to pack and move!), the next few months will be intense.
My office and the town board are working on other projects, of course—from affordable housing development to Climate
Smart waste management proposals--and I anticipate offering a public report in mid-2027, sharing progress on the two
big projects and looking beyond them to new initiatives. In everything we do, we are looking for ways to operate more
efficiently and bring in new revenues, while delivering the best services we can to our residents.
I will continue to communicate with the public through the Supervisor’s e-newsletter, social media, website, and public
events and we will again, next year, publish our popular annual Resident Services Guide.
It's a great honor to work every day with the employees of the Town of Poughkeepsie, and with the many volunteers and
non-profit and community partners striving to improve Poughkeepsie. I’m inspired every day by their determination and
insight, their care and concern for Town residents, and their willingness to go the extra mile.

Strategic Goals for 2027
Continue to protect property taxpayers by improving Town operational efficiencies and expanding non-property tax
revenues
Move Town Hall to its new location in spring 2027 and open the new Community Center spaces; expand both
services and revenues through Recreation programs, community partnerships, and rentals
Complete the final stages of design and bidding for the Police & Courts Facility at 1 Overocker Road, break ground
for the project, and move it forward on budget
Complete the community visioning process for the Brickyard BOA (Brownfield Opportunity Area) and apply to New
York State for BOA designation, opening opportunities for tax credits and remediation funding, including potential
sale of the current Police & Courts site for redevelopment in keeping with the BOA plan
Submit an application for Silver certification through the New York State Climate Smart program; continue working
to increase energy efficiencies in Town operations to cut costs and reduce fossil-fuel use
Continue to implement the “Centers and Green Spaces” Comprehensive Plan, including:
Expansion and improvement of parks, trails, and woodland preserves
Creation and enhancement of walkable town centers
Continue Safer Streets and “Complete Streets” initiatives
Strengthen orientation and training for new Town Board members and work to strengthen volunteer committees

A VISION FOR THE TOWN OF POUGHKEEPSIE
The Town’s Comprehensive Plan, updated and adopted in 2021, sets out this vision for the Town of Poughkeepsie’s future.
A full copy of the Comprehensive Plan is available at:
https://www.ttownofpoughkeepsie-ny.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1587/Comprehensive-Plan-Update---Adopted-PDF?bidId=
GUIDING DOCUMENTS
The Town of Poughkeepsie is an established, yet evolving, vibrant, diverse and community-centered Hudson
River Town strengthened by its history, attractive neighborhoods, natural resources and longstanding
educational institutions. In the next 10 years, the Town will revitalize, redevelop and reconnect, to redefine what
it means to live and work in a 21st century Poughkeepsie. The Town will pursue an environmentally and
economically sustainable future by protecting and enhancing existing natural resources, expanding renewable
energy infrastructure, pursuing connectivity by developing alternative transportation infrastructure, focusing
development on abandoned or obsolete sites, and preserving its remaining open space, historic, scenic and
cultural assets, and agricultural lands. The Town will enhance and diversify the local economy by pursuing
innovative strategies that focus on the needs of the community and the region, while preserving precious and
important open space by incentivizing mixed use, walkable development in areas that have already been
developed. The Town of Poughkeepsie will be a place where a diverse and inclusive community of residents,
families and stakeholders can afford to live, work and play, where trails and sidewalks connect neighborhoods
with services and amenities, and with each other.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Accounting. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus
and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available.
Revenues are considered available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay
liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within
60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual
accounting.

BUDGET PROCESS
PRIMARY OPERATING FUNDS
Governmental Funds: The focus of the Town’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows,
and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Town’s financing requirements and position.
The Town maintains the following major governmental funds:
General Fund – Town Wide (A): The Town’s primary operating fund, this fund accounts for all financial resources of the
general government, except those that the Town is required to account for in other funds (see below).
General Fund – Part-Town (B): This fund is used to account for revenues and expenditures relating to services provided
outside of the Village of Wappingers Falls, because the Village operates some of its own departments (i.e., police, planning,
zoning) providing those services.
Highway Fund: This fund is used to record revenues and expenditures relating to the repair and maintenance of Town roads.
Water Fund: This fund is used to account for the operations and maintenance of the townwide water district.

Sewer Fund: This fund is used to account for the operations and maintenance of various sewer districts within the Town.
Capital Projects Fund: This fund accounts for financial resources used for to acquire or construct major capital equipment
and facilities, other than those that may be financed by proprietary funds. The primary source of funding is sale of debt
obligations (i.e. bonds or bond anticipation notes).
Debt Service Fund: This fund is used to pay debt obligations (principal and interest).
BUDGET PROCESS
Non-Major Governmental Funds: For reporting purposes, the Town maintains three non-major funds. These are:
Drainage Fund: This fund is used to record operations and maintenance related to the Town’s drainage district; revenues are
derived from special district assessments).
Lighting Fund: This fund records operations and maintenance related to the Town’s lighting district; as with the Drainage
Fund, revenues are derived from special district assessments.
Miscellaneous Fund: This fund is used to record the financial resources necessary to support the business improvement
district and ambulance fund. The former is funded by businesses in the Arlington Business Improvement District, the latter
by taxpayers served by the New Hamburg Fire District EMS ambulance.
Fiduciary Funds: Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. The
Town has one pension trust fund, three private purpose trust funds, and three agency funds.

GFOA BEST PRACTICES - OPERATING BUDGET
The Government Finance Officers Association (“GFOA”) is a professional association which consists of approximately 19,000
municipal jurisdictions from across the United States. On their website, the GFOA provides a whole host of best practices
relating to the effective management of governmental fiscal operations. Each GFOA best practice must be accepted and
approved by its Executive Board prior to inclusion on their website.
BUDGET PROCESS
In 1984 the GFOA established its “Distinguished Budget Presentation Awards Program (Budget Awards Program),” which is
intended to foster the use of best practices in the development and presentation of annual operating budgets. To achieve the
award, a budget document must meet the highest quality standards set by both the GFOA and the National Advisory Council
on State and Local Budgeting. To date, the GFOA has recognized approximately 1,800 governments, including states, cities,
towns, counties, special districts, school districts, and more, for transparency in budgeting.
The presentation of the Town of Poughkeepsie 2027 Proposed Budget takes into account many of the best practices in
budgeting, as identified by the GFOA, and marks the the Town’s first step in preparations for consideration of the Distinguished
Budget Presentation Awards Program.

BUILDING
Department Mission. The Building Department Mission is to safeguard against the hazards of fire, inadequate building
construction, and improper maintenance in residential and non-residential buildings through the enforcement of Town and
state codes, laws, and regulations. Enforcement is carried out through issuance of permits, notices, orders, inspections, and
issuance of certificates. The Department’s overriding mission is to help homeowners and businesses through the permitting
process when they seek to build and maintain resilient and sustainable buildings in compliance with state and local law. The
Department works closely with the Zoning Department on code enforcement.
BUILDING
Description of Services. The Department is the Town’s functional resource for developers, contractors, electricians, plumbers,
architects, and local business owners and homeowners seeking to make changes to their properties. The Department
administers and enforces regulations pertaining to the use of property and construction of buildings in accordance with local
and state codes, rules, and regulations. The issuance of Floodplain Development permits is the responsibility of the Building
Department. The Department also oversees and maintains Town-owned properties, with the exception of parks. Specific legal
responsibilities of the Department include issuing and enforcing building permits and certificates of occupancy for all
residential homes and commercial occupancies, performing fire prevention inspections; and inspection and enforcement of
building, electrical, plumbing, and sanitation codes, including property and building complaint intake and processing. In order
to assure that a project is completed safely and in accordance with all Town requirements, a building permit is required for
most types of home improvements. In order to get a project moving as quickly as possible, an application for a permit should
be filed at least two weeks in advance of the start of the project. The Building Department answers questions and assists
applicants in understanding procedures, requirements, and codes.

CLERK
Department Mission. The mission of the Clerk’s office is to facilitate the Town Board’s official meetings; to manage and
preserve the official records of the Town; to assist the public as well as the Town’s various departments in accessing public
documents and information as well as vital records. We also issue licenses requiring permits, to name a few, Community
Events, Block Parties, Blasting Permits, and Dog Licenses. The department also processes Handicap Tags for Town of
Poughkeepsie residents.
The Clerks office seeks to provide these services in a manner of high quality, efficiency, and fairness with an emphasis on
friendly and courteous resident service.
Description of Services. The Clerk’s Office provides the following services:
CLERK
Vital Statistics: Processes marriage transcripts, Certified copies of birth, death and genealogy records for those already on file
with the Town of Poughkeepsie, and those the Town acquired from Hudson River State Hospital once closed. We are also
responsible for issuing and processing new death records occurring in the Town via EDRS and any live births that happen at
home in the Town.
Licenses/Permits: Issues State and Local licenses for all types of activities, marriages, hunting and fishing, dogs, blasting and
many other licenses as well as certain permits as required by Town Code. Food Trucks were added late in 2023
FOIL Requests: The Town Clerk’s Office coordinates and responds to all Freedom of Information Law (“FOIL”) requests apart
from Police Department Records.
Vital Record Guidance on Corrections, Legal Name Changes which are done at County Level, and in the last few years, a big
increase in Dual Citizenship questions and applications: We deal with not just issuing Vital Records, but when these are
incorrect, we must work with New York State on how to correct and help those named and what legal documents are
accepted, to help get this very complicated procedure completed.
Responds to legislative needs of the Town Board as they relate to Town Clerk Duties such as oaths of office, filing local laws,
sending legal notices to the newspaper and sometimes to surrounding towns and RAMP at the County level if needed.

This past fiscal year, our department’s achievements include but are not limited to continuing and nearing completion of the
large ARPA map scanning project started in 2023. A new agenda software program has recently been chosen which will be
implemented early in 2027 and should cut down on our paper usage and make searching meeting documents easier for the
public.
Upcoming Year Goals. This coming fiscal year, our department goals include, continuing to work on implementing the new
agenda software program, looking at ways to improve on some processes in relation to events and food trucks and making sure
the move to the new Town Hall, which is a very large undertaking, goes as smooth as possible
CLERK
Performance Measures. The Clerk’s Office is responsible for all services listed above in the Description of Services as well as many
other services we provide to the public, many of whom are not even Town residents. We answer many phone calls about all kinds
of issues when residents do not know where to turn, and we direct and advise them according to the best of our ability. If we
don’t know the answer, we take the time to research and get back to people, as many of our residents are elderly and do not have
access to the internet or the know-how even if a computer is in the home. Since the pandemic many things are all being pushed
online, yet not everyone can yet do things this way. The volume of requests, including requests for records of deaths and
marriages, FOILs, etc., as well as applications for licenses, disability parking permits, and other requests, varies significantly
depending on the size of each town. More residents, more requests. The Town of Poughkeepsie is the largest Town in Dutchess
County with a population of almost 10,000 + more than the next largest town so we keep very busy here.

agencies.
The Planning Department led the start-up of the Brickyard Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) Plan [FKA the Burnett-
Tucker BOA Plan]. Funded, in part, by a $252,000 grant from the NYS Department of State, this study will establish a
community-supported vision for revitalization and identify opportunities for redevelopment, investment and public
improvements in the study area. The planning process will evaluate existing conditions, economic and market trends,
redevelopment opportunities and constraints, and strategic sites, resulting in a BOA Plan and implementation strategy to
guide future public and private investment. With technical support from the Planning Department, a Steering Committee
was established by the Town Board, a consultant team (led by Colliers Engineering & Design) was selected to work with the
Steering Committee, and work on the plan was initiated. Public engagement opportunities related to this study will begin in
September 2026.
The Planning Department and the Zoning Department continued to work with the Code Update Committee and our
consultants to prepare and introduce to the Town Board several zoning code and related town code amendments intended
to implement recommendations from the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. Since last Fall’s budget process, examples include: a
local law to clean-up and clarify existing zoning and subdivision regulations, correct minor errors, and revise time frames for
extensions; and a local law related to Affordable and Workforce Housing (an “inclusionary zoning” law).
The Planning Department, in partnership with Scenic Hudson, continued to spearhead efforts to acquire 90 +/- acres of land
from IBM for a passive recreation park overlooking the Hudson River. The Department also worked with a local landowner to
apply to the NYS DEC’s Open Space Conservation Grant Program for acquisition of a 108-acre woodland parcel adjacent to
the Town’s Peach Hill Park. These efforts were intended to implement the Town’s Open Space Plan.
The Planning Department secured an $80,000 grant from the NYS DEC’s Climate Smart Communities Program to fund an
Engineering Feasibility Study targeting flood control in the Hamlet of New Hamburg. This effort will advance several of the
recommendations from the initial New Hamburg Flood Study completed by the Town in 2025. Work on the Engineering
Feasibility Study will begin in the Fall of 2026.

SUMMARY OF DEBT OBLIGATIONS
CREDIT RATING
Why it is Important. A credit rating is the primary factor in determining an entity’s ability
to access capital markets--i.e., borrow money--and ultimately determines the interest rate
that the Town pays when borrowing. Thus it is a crucial factor to an entity's fiscal health.
“Aa3"
BY MOODY’S
AND CREDIT RATING
Current Credit Rating. The Town possesses a “Aa3” credit rating with Moody’s Investors
Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”).
Moody’s Credit Rating Scale. As detailed, the
Moody’s credit rating scale, running from a
high of “Aaa” to a low of “C”, is comprised of 21
notches and is divided into two sections,
investment grade and speculative grade.

RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY'S PROPOSED CLEANUP PLAN FOR THE WAPPINGER CREEK
SUPERFUND SITE AND URGING COMPREHENSIVE ECOLOGICAL AND PUBLIC
ACCESS RESTORATION, FISHING ADVISORY WARNING SIGNAGE, AND
ADDRESSING HUDSON RIVER PCB IMPACTS
WHEREAS, the Wappingers Creek has significant value to our community for
recreational, environmental, historical and economic value, including numerous public access
sites for paddling, Greenway trails and paddling; and
WHEREAS, the Town has acquired the Reese Preserve, a protected woodland and
wildlife sanctuary which borders Wappingers Creek, and
WHEREAS, the tidal portion of the Wappinger Creek downstream of the falls is a
designated Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat, important for species including striped
bass, river herring, American eel, largemouth bass and smallmouth bass; and
WHEREAS, nearly two centuries of industrial operations along the tidal portion of
Wappinger Creek downstream of the falls left a persistent toxic legacy of contaminants in creek
sediments, including heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs), cyanide, pesticides, and dioxin/furans; and
WHEREAS, testing by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has concluded
that these contaminants do not pose a risk to people who paddle or wade in this portion of the
creek, but do pose a significant health risk to those who catch and eat fish from this area; and
WHEREAS, there is a need to post additional New York State Department of Health
(NYSDOH) signage to adequately warn anglers that fish caught in the tidal portion of Wappinger
Creek pose a health risk and should not be consumed; and
WHEREAS, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC)
completed a portion of the remediation of contamination bordering the creek from 2013 to 2015
and thereafter referred the remaining remediation of contaminated creek sediments to EPA for
further action under the federal Superfund program; and
WHEREAS, EPA has proposed an $88 million interim cleanup plan to excavate and
remediate approximately half the tidal creek to dredge heavily contaminated creek sediments and
remove streambank soils; and
WHEREAS, the EPA is not currently proposing to remediate contaminated sediments
near the mouth of Wappinger Creek due to concerns that they could be recontaminated by PCBs
from the Hudson River; and
WHEREAS, the remediation is not designed or expected to affect Wappinger Lake or
other upstream portions of Wappinger Creek; and
G: \mllegal\r|2026\Sept\Sept 16 Workshop\Draft municipal resolution for Town of Poughkeepsie.docx
WHEREAS, Riverkeeper supports the remediation plan by EPA, and is urging EPA to
thoroughly restore aquatic habitats and public access following the remediation, to ensure fishing
health advisory signage is improved, and to expeditiously address the portion of the creek
affected by Hudson River PCBs; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Poughkeepsie shares the core environmental priorities
articulated by Riverkeeper, now therefore.
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Town Board of Poughkeepsie hereby formally declares its
full support for the EPA's proposed Superfund cleanup plan for Wappinger Creek; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town urges the EPA and NYSDOH to work
with local land owners at public access points to ensure that fish consumption advisory signage
is posted; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town urges the EPA, NYSDOH and
NYSDEC to incorporate the following priorities into the design and implementation of the
remedial plan:
• Habitat Restoration: Ensure dredging operations are timed, to the extent possible, to
avoid disruption to aquatic species, and implement a comprehensive habitat restoration
plan to restore the ecology of the creek following the remediation.
• Public Access: Preserve, to the extent possible, existing public access during the remedial
project, and restore public access following the project.
• Addressing Hudson River PCBs: Ensure the Wappinger Creek remedy accounts for
cumulative contamination impacts tied to the broader Hudson River, and address
contaminants found in creek sediments near the Hudson River expeditiously.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town encourages residents to support the
cleanup by sending written comments to EPA by September 21, 2026, by writing to Emily
Wong, the site's Remedial Project Manager, at [email protected] or by U.S. mail to Emily
Wong, 290 Broadway, New York, New York 10007; or by sending a letter via Riverkeeper's
website at https://engage.riverkeeper.org/clean-up-wappinger-creek.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town Clerk is directed to forward certified
copies of this resolution to Ms. Wong, the Regional Administrator of the NYSDEC for Region 3,
NYSDOH's Center for Environmental Health, New York State Assembly Member Didi Barrett,
New York State Senator Anil Beephan Jr., U.S. Representative Pat Ryan and U.S. Senators
Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand.

Reservations for Dial-A-Ride and Flex Service
Passengers should plan activities so that reservations may be made ahead of time.
When schedule allows, bus operators will make scheduled additional stops and/or trips within a
municipality, however each additional stop will constitute a new fare.
Passengers must call for reservations at (845) 473-8424 as early as possible when in need of
transit services. Call-center representatives will accept reservations between the hours of
7:00 am and 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday and Saturday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Reservations can be made up to 30 days in advance and no later than 3 days before the desired
date of service. You must have an approved registration on file before making a reservation.
To cancel a reservation, please call (845) 473-8424 at least 24 hours before the scheduled trip.
Late cancellations will require payment for the missed trip and will be tracked for sanction
(please see "Late Cancellation Sanction Policy" below).
When scheduling a ride, passengers must inform the dispatcher of exact locations (addresses) of
where they are going, including any additional stops.
The bus operator must adhere to the schedule from dispatch which cannot be changed on the
day of service.

Passengers are limited to a maximum of four (4) shopping bags or parcels, with a maximum
weight of 25 pounds per bag. Bags must be stored under the passenger seat or on the floor in
front of the passenger seat. No packages may be on the seat or in the aisle at any time during
the trip.
Bus operators may assist passengers in carrying packages on and off the bus at the destination
upon request, but the bus operator may not leave the bus unattended.
Passengers must ask for help if assistance is needed to board or disembark a vehicle.
In inclement weather, passengers may wait inside their home until 5 minutes after the start of
their scheduled pick-up window so the dispatcher may call if the driver is delayed.
Passengers should be ready prior to the start of their 30-minute scheduled pick-up window.
Passengers are asked to be patient, as bus operators may be delayed due to road conditions.
Passengers must place fares in the fare box on their own. Those who are unable to do so may
receive assistance from bus operators upon request. Bus operators are not permitted to make
change or accept tips or gifts of any kind.
Passengers who wish to express a concern may ask to speak to a supervisor at (845) 473-8424,
or the Director of Public Transit at (845) 473-8665. Suggestions are welcome and may also be
directed at a supervisor, or the Director of Public Transit.
Late Cancellation Sanction Policy
1. A late cancellation is defined as cancelling transportation on the same day as the
scheduled trip. Any passenger whose pattern of late cancellations' exceeds five (5)
cancellations in one month will be sanctioned for one month following the fifth
cancellation. Any pre-arranged trips will be canceled until the following month.
2. Any passenger whose pattern of late cancellations exceeds fifteen (15) cancellations in
three months will be sanctioned for three months following the fifteenth cancellation.
No further trip requests will be taken until two months and twenty-seven days after the
sanction period expires.

cancellations exceeds any of the preceding guidelines must have twelve consecutive
weeks of less than five (5) cancellations per month before his or her clock starts again.
