From the meeting
The NY Forward materials describe a plan to demolish the existing firehouse at 108 East Cortland Street and replace it with Firehouse Market Square, a 55-foot by 12-foot pavilion space with electricity, sidewalks, EV chargers, and seating. The budget shows a $416,000 NY Forward funding request and a $641,000 total project cost. The village said demolition and preparation would take 12 months before NY Forward work, making this a longer-horizon capital project with follow-on design and construction needs.
