Dear Residents and Friends of the Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson,

It’s OFFICIAL! Governor Kathy Hochul’s Office has just issued a press release identifying the municipal, non-profit, and private sector “transformational” Mid-Hudson Region project award selections. The Cornwall community – which includes the Town and the Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson – were blessed with a bounty of $4.5 million in reinvestments as part of the New York Forward grant award we received in February of 2023. Our Village-Town collaboration, coupled with the long hours and due diligence exerted by our handpicked Local Planning Committee, a plethora of committed volunteers (special shout-out to EDAC’s Steve Jones and Jason Burnham), our community planner, and the Village’s and Town’s engineering firms all served as the clear-cut margin of victory. Now, as they oft say, the hard work begins in earnest as we seek to put contracts in place and shovels in the soil. Stay tuned for exciting details soonest.

Secondly, I’d be remiss in not recognizing our Cornwall-on-Hudson Water Department under the leadership of Superintendent Mike Trainor for their recent New York State award recognition as “2024 Water System of the Year.” Staffed with only nine employees – the aforementioned Superintendent Trainor, Water Maintenance Leader Daniel Nye, Chief Water Plant Operator Donald Bryde, Assistant Leader Richard Smith, Heavy Equipment Operator Joseph McCormick, Motor Equipment Operator Luis Delacruz, and Water Maintenance Operators Daniel Dimitrov and Jason Sergeant, along with P/T Clerk Stephanie Xagoraris -- our crews perform yeoman’s work on behalf of residential and commercial water customers within the Village and Town, as well as the Cornwall Central School District. This honor reflects on their professionalism and the pride they exhibit in their daily duties to deliver pure, clean drinking water to all of us.

On behalf of your Village Board,

James A. “Jimmy” Gagliano

Mayor

BLAZING A PATH FORWARD TOGETHER.
Dear Residents of Cornwall and Cornwall on Hudson,
 
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering enthusiasm and active participation in our collective journey towards the NY Forward Grant application and project review process. Your invaluable contributions through public workshops, surveys, and engaging on social media have been instrumental in shaping the future of our community.
 
We are thrilled to announce that all projects have been submitted and have undergone a rigorous review process, involving the Local Planning Committee (LPC), Municipalities, Consultant Team, State Team, Core Team, and most importantly, you-the vibrant and engaged community we are proud to serve.
The LPC has just concluded its final meeting, marking an important milestone. The next phase entails the creation of a Strategic Investment Plan (SIP) by our dedicated Consultant Team, which will be submitted to the state. As we eagerly await the results, we anticipate that the projects selected for funding will be announced by Spring 2024.
 
Your involvement has been, and will continue to be, the backbone of this endeavor. When the selected projects are unveiled, we will once again turn to you, our community, for your valuable input. Your opinions and insights will help shape the final outcome of these projects before the first shovels enter the ground.
 
Thank you for your commitment, your passion, and your dedication to our shared vision. Together, we are making our community stronger and more vibrant than ever.
 
With sincere gratitude,
Joshua T. Wojehowski, Town Supervisor, Town of Cornwall
James A. Gagliano, Mayor, Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson
