Council authorizes agreement with state for up to $500,000 Brownfields Opportunity Area grant for 187 Clinton Street
Summary
Council approved a resolution authorizing the mayor to enter an agreement with the New York State Department of State for a Brownfields Opportunity Area grant not to exceed $500,000 for predevelopment activities at 187 Clinton Street.
The Binghamton City Council on May 7 voted unanimously to authorize the mayor to enter into an agreement with the New York State Department of State for a Brownfields Opportunity Area grant not to exceed $500,000. The grant will fund predevelopment activities at a brownfield site at 187 Clinton Street.
Council member Rathbone said the award is one of at least three related resolutions the council has discussed concerning that property and said the city looks forward to seeing redevelopment begin. The resolution authorizes the mayor to accept the grant and enter the necessary agreement; council members voted 7-0 to adopt the resolution.
The transcript identifies the grant ceiling ($500,000) and the specific property (187 Clinton Street) but does not detail a project developer, a full redevelopment plan, or a timeline for construction. The authorization covers predevelopment activities; further steps, including contracting, environmental remediation and construction, will require separate approvals and may involve additional state or local permits and funding.
