During his arrest, Iozzo was found to be in possession of methamphetamine, authorities said.
He is charged with third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, a felony. Additional charges are pending as the investigation continues, the Task Force said.
Iozzo was arraigned in Dover Town Court and remanded to the Dutchess County Jail.
