The Town of Clifton approved Res. #5-2026 to submit FY2027 requests for Congressionally Directed Spending and Community Project Funding for the Newton Falls WWTP Disinfection & Improvements Project and authorized DANC to pursue a related redevelopment grant; motions passed 4-0, one absent.
The Town of Clifton board voted to authorize submission of FY2027 requests for Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) and Community Project Funding (CPF) for the Newton Falls Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Disinfection & Improvements Project. Council Member John Russell made the motion and Council Member Ray Campany seconded; the minutes record the vote as Ayes = 4, Noes = 0, Absent = 1.
In separate but related motions, the board accepted budget adjustments (Res #4-2026) needed to prepare for the project and authorized the Development Authority of the North Country (DANC) to submit a 2026 St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency grant application for the Newton Falls WWTP Disinfection & Improvements Project (Res #6-2026). The minutes indicate the town is coordinating with DANC and that letters in support were needed by Friday to meet grant timelines.
