Lakefront Information

Update:

There have been a lot of questions around the announcement of $20,000,000 for private homeowners. The specific details of the funding are not yet available. There are some general statements and guidelines that have been published. 

Cuomo said this money won’t be used to help people on a case-by-case basis.

The local community has to work with the residential community to put together a critical mass of homes where we can actually put in a physical barrier.

The commission will prioritize projects based on feasibility and efficiency.

The logistics of the program are still being developed, who applies, how to apply, what agency will be handling the funding, are all questions yet to be answered.
