Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County settle Oakley shelter dispute

The City of Poughkeepsie is considering approval of a long-term settlement agreement with the County of Dutchess governing the operation of a homeless shelter at 26 Oakley Street and related obligations. The County would transfer 35 Montgomery Street to the City for a youth or community center, reimburse up to $3.9 million in construction costs, and receive rent-free office space for its Youth Bureau, in exchange for strict shelter siting, security, and reporting commitments over five- and thirty-five-year periods. The resolution conditions approval on shortening the Sunset Period to five years and increasing the frequency of County reporting near the end of that period.
