Newburgh Police Review Board Releases 2026 Public Meeting Schedule

The City of Newburgh Police Community & Relations Review Board (PCRRB) will hold regular meetings in 2026 on the first Wednesday of most months, with one exception in April. All sessions are scheduled to begin at 6:30 PM and will be held in person in the Activity Center at 401 Washington Street, Newburgh, NY 12550.

The dates posted for 2026 are Wednesday, February 4; Wednesday, March 4; Wednesday, April 8; Wednesday, May 6; Wednesday, June 3; Wednesday, July 1; Wednesday, August 5; Wednesday, September 2; Wednesday, October 7; Wednesday, November 4; and Wednesday, December 2. Agendas and specific meeting details will be available on the PCRRB webpage on the City of Newburgh site.

For residents of Orange County and the City of Newburgh, the schedule creates a clear, recurring forum for public oversight and participation in police-community relations. Regular monthly meetings provide predictable windows for community members to follow agenda items, attend in person, and track review board activity over the course of the year. Holding sessions at 6:30 PM at a centrally located Activity Center aims to make meetings accessible to those who work during daytime hours and to neighborhood residents who rely on downtown transit links.

The PCRRB calendar arrives at a time when municipal boards and police oversight bodies across the country are under heightened public scrutiny. For local residents, consistent meeting dates can help organize community groups, neighborhood associations, and individuals seeking to present concerns, provide testimony, or simply observe the review process. The board’s in-person format also allows for direct, face-to-face interaction between officials and the public, which some advocates view as essential for building trust and mutual understanding.

To prepare for any meeting, residents should consult the PCRRB webpage on the City of Newburgh site for posted agendas and updates before attending. The meetings at the Activity Center, 401 Washington Street, begin at 6:30 PM on the dates listed and will serve as the primary annual schedule for the board’s regular public sessions in 2026.
