Watch it yourself: Oct 13 meeting video posted to the city’s TV archive verified
The city’s City Hall TV archive now lists the Oct 13 “Council Meeting” as a live, published event — the entry was last touched Oct 13 at 7:25 PM ET, about 25 minutes after the 7:00 PM start. The event page is up at the archive now; the same pull shows the Oct 7 Rules Committee and Oct 14 Planning Board meetings posted this month too. One wrinkle for transparency watchers: Legistar’s own video field for the meeting still reads “Not available” — the agenda system lags the TV archive, so the video is watchable before the legislative record points to it.
Minutes reach “Draft” — and the record shows Sept 29’s minutes were approved verified
The Oct 13 meeting’s Legistar page shows Minutes status: Draft. And the meeting’s own item list records a housekeeping vote with real substance: “Minutes of the Stated Meeting held on Tuesday, September 29, 2026 approved by motion…” — the council signing off on the previous session’s record. A Draft stamp is not final minutes — it means the write-up is in progress.
The verdict files still wait: all eleven docket items read “Referred,” zero passage dates since Sept 25 verified
A fresh query of the legislative record this morning finds no city council matter with a passage date after Sept 25 — and on Tuesday’s agenda, every docket file still carries status “Referred”: the P.S. 9 conveyance local law; the four grant ordinances (Field Hall Foundation, state CHIPS, federal ESG, federal HOME); the $20,000 settlement resolution for the two claimants; the Yonkers Public Schools resolution; the Italian Heritage / Columbus Day declaration; the Commissioner of Deeds item; the budget amendment adding IT positions; and the resolution approving an intermunicipal agreement with the Town of Greenburgh for use of the Yonkers Police and Fire Special Operations Training Center (TMP-0859, tagged POSITIVE FISCAL IMPACT). That’s eleven files waiting. “Referred” means sent to committee — not passed. Final votes wait for a future agenda.
Oct 27 remains the council’s only date on the books: the zoning hearing verified
The council’s only listed event right now is the Oct 27 Public Hearing, 6:30 PM, City Hall — City Council Chambers, 4th Floor, agenda status Final: the general ordinance amending Chapter 43, the zoning ordinance — reclassifying and rezoning certain properties to D-MX or UR-HD districts, with matching updates to the Key Streets, Height Districts, Sidewalk Width and Districts maps (Attachments 13–16). The agenda tags it (NO FISCAL IMPACT.) (ALL COUNCILMEMBERS.) A public hearing is the comment window — if rezoning reaches your street, that’s the night to show up.
