Meetings and Events in the Week Ahead

Today marks the summer solstice--the first day of summer and the longest day of the year. As we move on into the lazy days of summer, here is what's happening.

• On Monday, June 22, the Public Works Board meets at 5:30 p.m. The meeting is a hybrid, taking place in person at City Hall and on Teams. Click here to join the meeting remotely.
• Tuesday, June 23, is the Primary Election. The polls are open from 6:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. The polling places in Hudson are (note that the polling place for the Fourth Ward is different from what it has been in the past):
• Wards 1, 2, and 3--St. Mary's Academy, 301 Allen Street

• On Tuesday, June 23, the Common Council Finance Committee meets at 5:15 p.m. The meeting is a hybrid, taking place in person at City Hall and on Teams. Click here to join the meeting remotely.
• At 5:45 p.m. on Tuesday, June 23, there is a public hearing on the resolution relating to the use of videoconferencing for public hearings. The hearing takes place in person and on Teams. Click here for the link to join the hearing remotely. 
• Also on Tuesday, June 23, the Common Council holds its regular monthly meeting at 6:oo p.m. An addition to the agenda since the informal meeting last week is a resolution authorizing a budget amendment to hire a second full-time code enforcement officer. It will be remembered that last September, when the Board of Estimate and Apportionment was crafting the 2026 budget, former code enforcement officer Craig Haigh requested a 40 percent increase in his department's budget. One of the reasons for the increase was to hire a second full-time code enforcement officer. The BEA denied the request, and Haigh resigned in January. Now the Council is being asked to approve a budget amendment to add a second code enforcement officer. The Council meeting is a hybrid, taking place in person at City Hall and on Teams.
