The Yonkers City Council held a public hearing Tuesday, June 17, 2025, on a resolution to renew the city’s cable franchise agreement with Crown Castle International Corp.; no members of the public spoke and the hearing was closed.
City Clerk read a notice announcing the hearing and said the hearing was scheduled for 6:15 p.m. in the council chambers and that further information could be obtained at the city clerk’s office. The clerk’s reading described the item as a “resolution authorizing the City of Yonkers to renew a cable franchise agreement with Crown Castle International Corp. in the City of Yonkers.”
No speakers had signed up when the council called for public comment and, after checking the gallery, the presiding member closed the hearing. The council did not take a formal vote on the franchise renewal at the public hearing; the proceeding was solely to solicit public comment.
The public notice read by the clerk directed interested persons to the city clerk’s office for further information. The transcript does not record any substantive discussion among council members about the terms of the franchise, nor does it record any motions, votes or directions to staff during the hearing.
Because the meeting record shows only the public hearing notice, the lack of public comment and the formal close, there are no council actions to report from this item in the transcript. Any subsequent procedural steps, such as introduction of an ordinance, staff report or council vote on the franchise renewal, are not recorded in the provided transcript.
