Town of Cortlandt

Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI)

Please come to a meeting at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 7, 2023 in the Nyberg Meeting Room at Cortlandt Town Hall to discuss the Town’s 2023 Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) application.  Round 7 of the program is now open with a grant deadline of September 29, 2023.  The Downtown Revitalization Initiative or DRI is a New York state-funded grant that gives communities between $10 and $20 million dollars to bring life to their downtowns. The state’s ten Regional Economic Development Councils (REDCs) will each select a winner based on the potential of the community’s downtown for transformation. Within each region, the REDC will nominate either two downtowns to receive $10 million each or one downtown to receive an award of $20 million to develop a downtown strategic investment plan and implement key projects that advance the community’s vision for revitalization.
