Village of Medina Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) Draft Application
The Genesee/Finger Lakes Regional Planning Council will submit an application for a Village of Medina Nomination project under the Brownfield Opportunity Area Program, to the New York State Department of State.
The focus area for the Village of Medina Nomination is an area characterized with several brownfield sites including the Former Furniture Manufacturing/Seed America property, a 3.8 acre property located at 525 East Ave. The primary community revitalization objectives of this project include: in-fill development; redevelopment and rehabilitation and environmental remediation. Anticipated community benefits resulting from this project include expanded job opportunities; enhanced physical appearance of properties; remediated land; enhanced connection to natural resources; improved streetscape and infrastructure; and improved coordination amongst community revitalization efforts.
The proposed project will include development of a Revitalization Strategy for the identified Brownfield Opportunity Area within the Village of Medina. The strategy will include an in-depth analysis of the Brownfield Opportunity Area; an economic and market trends analysis; and the identification of strategic sites that are catalysts for redevelopment. Development of the Revitalization Strategy will also include development of goals and objectives; a public participation plan; and key findings and recommendations that will help advance redevelopment of targeted sites within the Brownfield Opportunity Area. Upon completion of the Revitalization Strategy the project will submit documentation for the Village of Medina study area to be designated as a Brownfield Opportunity Area.
