What's the status of the $75,000 NYSERDA grant to help fund our Zoning and Historic Code updates?

Good news to report!

Yesterday, the Village Attorney and I met with representatives from NYSERDA to discuss the terms of our contract for that grant. By the end of our meeting, NYSERDA understood clearly the Village's obligations to honor public process and agreed to make important changes in the contract, ensuring the Village's award of the $75,000 will fund our *process* without obligations to adopt specific legislation.

Many thanks are due to NYSERDA for being sensible and fair-minded negotiating partners, and to the Mayor Ralph Falloon and my fellow Trustees Matt Francisco, Bruce Campbell and Chuck Hustis for supporting continued discussions with NYSERDA. This grant helps us all.
