Tupper Lake approves grant consulting contract and EPA partnership
Summary
Trustees approved a consulting agreement with Melissa McManus, LLC for waterfront and downtown revitalization grant management and authorized a partnership with Franklin County Economic Development Corporation for an EPA Community Change Grant application.
The board unanimously approved a consulting agreement with Melissa McManus, LLC to assist with project management and grant administration for the village’s Department of State Local Waterfront Revitalization Program and Downtown Revitalization Initiative grants. Trustees authorized Mayor Mary Fontana to execute the agreement as presented (motion carried 5‑0).
Trustees also approved the village entering a grant partnership with the Franklin County Economic Development Corporation to apply for an EPA Community Change Grant. Both actions position the village to pursue outside funding for waterfront and downtown projects; the minutes do not specify the proposed grant amount or matching requirements.
Mayor Fontana announced the actions during the meeting; the board did not include contract dollar values in the public minutes. Follow‑up will come as proposals and grant applications are developed and shared with the board and public.
