Hoosick Falls Approves State Sewer Grant Application

Hoosick Falls village board authorizes Mayor Severson to sign the state construction grant application for the sewer treatment project. The $477,660 state grant would cover part of the $1,592,200 eligible cost, with a federal grant of $525,420. Delays stem from easement deeds from the Boston and Maine Railroad, which were finally received, prompting hopes for timely payments and project completion by October. The mayor has urged Gov. Rockefeller to speed federal payments due to incurred interest and urgent funding needs.
