Topics getting the most attention in Port Chester public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
4 issues in general
Senior Center Program Suspension
Port Chester is canceling Saturday programs at the Senior Community Center through the end of the year. If you or a family member rely on those weekend services, plan for the gap—the notice doesn’t say why or whether anything will replace them.
Leaf Collection
Port Chester's seasonal leaf pickup is officially underway, so make sure to get your leaves to the curb to keep our streets clean and safe.
Law Enforcement Policy
Port Chester says it doesn't work with ICE, but new data suggests local officials are actually cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. This matters because it directly impacts local trust and contradicts what residents were previously told about city policies.
Hazardous Waste Disposal
Somebody threw radioactive junk into a Port Chester garbage truck, which completely messed up trash pickup and caused a major hazardous waste scare for the city.
