Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
City officials are prioritizing essential infrastructure while limiting new borrowing. Aging water mains, sewer systems, streets, treatment facilities, and streetlights require ongoing investment; the city reported about 30–35 water main breaks annually, costing roughly $10,000 per day per repair. Officials also outlined a planned $1 million BridgeNY-supported Middle Street Bridge replacement and said the capital plan may change as grants, emergencies, inflation, and project readiness shift.
