I just got off the telephone with the garbage company that services the Village of Washingtonville. The call was made by me wanting to know why bulk items were not collected yesterday. The company assured me that they will be going through the village either today or tomorrow, the latest, for collection. Please have the one bulk item (per week) at curbside but not on the street. If you have a bulk item that was not collected, please call Village Hall, 845-496-3221.![]()

A Message from the Mayor![]()
In response to the article that appeared in the MidHudson News on Monday, April 5, 2021, The New York Office of the State Comptroller developed and launched the Fiscal Stress Monitoring System (System) in 2013 to provide transparent financial information to communities. Each year the System assesses the State’s counties, cities, towns, villages and school districts.
The System utilizes the information filed within the annual financial report which is due 90 days after the Village’s fiscal year end. There are currently 72 villages and 2 cities state-wide that have not filed the annual financial report for 2020. The Village is currently working towards filing the annual financial report with the State Comptroller’s Office. Last year we replaced our old auditing firm for not filing our AUD (annual update documents) on time. ![]()
