Proposed Projects
The Open Call for Projects closed on August 22 – thank you to everyone who submitted their proposed project! The consultant team will review project information and work with sponsors in September and October. Information will be shared with the Local Planning Committee (LPC) to support their evaluation.
At the end of October, the LPC will recommend a group of projects requesting $6-8 million in NY Forward funding to the State. State agencies will select projects from that list for the Village’s $4.5 million NY Forward award. Announcements will be made in the first half of 2026.
