Summary
Frank Pugliese, regional representative for Governor Kathy Hochul, told the Allegany County Board meeting at the fair that the county will receive multiple state awards including $4.2 million for emergency communications, $3.0 million for wastewater infrastructure to support about 220 housing units, and $1.2 million for salt‑storage facilities.
At the Allegany County Fair on July 23, Frank Pugliese, the regional representative for Governor Kathy Hochul, announced a package of state grants and awards intended to support local infrastructure and emergency services. "In the last year, there was a grant to strengthen emergency communications for first responders that Allegany County received: $4,200,000," Pugliese told the legislative meeting.
Pugliese also cited a $3,000,000 housing-related wastewater collection grant intended to enable roughly 220 housing units and $1,200,000 for salt‑storage facilities in New Hudson, Granger and Birdsall. The county chair and legislators thanked the governor's office and noted similar project funding has supported recent fairground improvements. The announcements were delivered as part of routine recognition and presentations at the fair meeting; the transcript does not show the grants being acted on by resolution during the session.
