Seeking the $10 Million

Hudson is competing once again with the ten other cities in the Capital Region for $10 million in Round 2 of Governor Andrew Cuomo's Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI). Last Wednesday, Gossips reported that the area targeted for revitalization was the waterfront and just about everything west of Second Street.

Tomorrow night, at a special meeting of the Common Council Economic Development Committee, the DRI application will be discussed with the public. Sheena Salvino, executive director of Hudson Development Corporation, issued an invitation on Facebook, which read in part: "Come . . . talk with us about this application, the revitalization area, the highighted projects, and help Hudson have the best chances at success by giving insight & feedback!"

The meeting takes place at 6 p.m. at City Hall.
