NY Forward Informational Meeting Coming Up Monday

There’ll be a meeting at the Bath Fire Station on Monday 6pm, about Bath possibly winning $10 million dollars from the New York Forward program.  Bath Mayor Michael Sweet says, this particular contest from the state, is different than the Downtown Revitalization Initiative Monday which some applied for, before.  "The (NY Forward) grant doesn't really require any personal investment," said Mayor Sweet.  "But it does favor a personal investment in terms of favorability for a grant for the community.  So what we're looking for people who want to transform the downtown area, that want to turn some of the downtown buildings into market rate apartments, maybe into boutique hotels, which is really trendy right now, particularly because we're the gateway to Keuka Lake," Sweet tells WVIN.
