Dear Resident,

The Town of Cortlandt is pleased to announce that the next phase of the Broadway Streetscape enhancements from 8th Street to 11th Street will soon begin.  The project cost will be partially funded by Community Development Block Grants; in the amount of $350,000; with the Town’s share being $464,500.  The project will extend the sidewalks from 8th Street to the corner of Letteri Field on 11th Street.  In addition to sidewalk, enhancement to parking and landscaping will be completed. 

The Town’s Contractor Peter J. Landi, Inc. will begin work within the next 7-10 days.  The Contractor will begin with selective demolition and drainage work this fall and then return in the spring to install the curbing, sidewalk, planting and pavement restoration. 

There will be limited disruptions with the associated work and any disruption will be coordinated with the adjacent property owner.  We do not anticipate any impacts to the local roads or side streets.  Emergency response will not be impacted.
