Same issue on Liberty Street at the corner of Mt St Mary’s north of Clinton Street all the way up to Broad Street. Cars drive into the neighborhood and park- and frequent the party that blasts at the open drug market that caters to the public including law enforcement customers. Drugs are not the issue. The noise and substance abuse is Epic. Lasts all night. Profanity rap blasted extremely loud- that’s heard by all including small kids on school nights. Best program would close the street for parking except for resident parking stickers every night, put cameras up at the spot to video customers, and install stop signs on Liberty and Clinton : make sure the cameras are rolling at all times. Diverting through traffic down Clinton and Broad to Grand Street to stop the drug drive thru on Liberty. A police car is needed. Deterrence. Using the dealers as informants isn’t working because they are all related. Nobody cares about arrests- just get it off the streets- so people can have peace and quiet.

I’d propose a 90 day “ quiet Zone” June July August to see if residents/ tenants like it. City Manager??

A 90-day quiet zone seems like a great idea. Particularly from 6pm - 6am.

It's a shame that the city just completely ignore the safety concerns of taxpaying residents and allowing group of crowds to take over neighborhoods and making it difficult for citizens to sleep at night and be at peace. All it takes is police presence to resolve these issues but this time the city manager is quiet and makes no reference to the matter

“Group of crowds”. Having a permit for a gathering of 10 people or more is a law that is on the books. Regularly ignored including during Covid-19 pandemic when every news outlet was barking “ black and brown impoverished communities are more affected”. Just complete negligence. There’s a battle going on in City of Newburgh and it’s not gentrification. It’s the battle to maintain the ghetto low rent slums where the government dumps problems of every stripe and collects money ( publicly and privately) to fund the poor oh we are so poor violent filthy vs decent quiet everyday families who want a reasonable affordable existence. Newburgh can still be Newburgh without the violence and filth. Stop enabling the slum lovers. Get the problems off the streets. Can’t you see the problems are created to exert control? If there’s a law against whatever’s going down, enforce it. Stop pretending that it’s not about individuals. It’s only a few. Enabled by a network of nasty disenfranchised people and longtime stakeholders who see themselves as a political force with power to intimidate law enforcement. Both political parties are corrupt, jaded, and effectively neglectful of your community. Start small with the quality of life issues. Clean the garbage from your front yard and your neighbors!

This request is being referred to the correct department.
