NY Forward Revitalization Grant

NY Forward

Ballston Spa is in the process of applying for NY Forward, an exciting revitalization grant aimed at communities like ours. We feel Ballston Spa is an ideal candidate for these funds.

NY Forward awardees not only receive investment funds from $2.25 to $4.5 million but also a professional planning team to help best use those dollars to leverage more private investment.

Community engagement is highly important!
