Welcome to Falconer

NY Forward Application

The NY Forward program was created in 2022 to invigorate and enliven downtowns in New York’s smaller and rural communities – the type of downtowns found in communities like yours – the Village of Falconer! We need your help to generate a list of potential projects!

NY Forward Eligible Projects:

  • Smaller project focused more on building renovation and redevelopment and activation of upper stories (ex. housing, additional commercial; rather than new construction.)
  • Adaptive reuse.
  • Projects that deal primarily with vacancy and rehabilitation, but may include new construction or creation of a new space.
  • Projects that elevate specific cultural, historical qualities that enhance the feeling of local charm.
  • Application must demonstrate $3-5M in multiple synergistic projects. Final project award funding cannot be used for one sole project.
  • Tight commercial activity area with opportunity to enhance cultural heritage through signage or historic markers.

The next NY Forward Steering Committee meeting will be on Tuesday, October 8 at 5:00 p.m. in the Community Building Board room.

Meeting Notice:

The Village of Falconer will be holding its regular monthly meeting of the Mayor & Board of Trustees on Tuesday, October 15, 2024 at 6 pm in the Fire Exempts Hall, located at 3 Coleson Drive. There will be a work session prior to the board meeting at 5:30 pm for a discussion on ARPA Funds.
