Congratulations to the Village of Corinth on winning First Place at NYCOM’s Local Government Achievement Awards! They received this prestigious award for identifying and implementing an innovative solution to a challenge that impacts municipalities throughout the State of New York.

Like so many municipalities Statewide, the Village of Corinth faced a formidable list of projects necessary to upgrade and repair their aging and deteriorating water, stormwater, and sanitary sewer infrastructure. Lacking the funds to proceed with an estimated $36.6 million in rehabilitation projects, the Village Board of Trustees took a pragmatic approach by retaining Laberge Group to assist in developing an Infrastructure Improvement Program.
Laberge Group delivered a plan that prioritized infrastructure improvements, evaluated a potential intermunicipal infrastructure agreement, and outlined a realistic plan of finance. We were happy to partner with the Village on this proactive initiative and were able to assist in securing critical funds to make implementation viable, including:
  • NYS Office of Community Renewal – $3,600,000
  • NYS Water Grants – $5,000,000
  • DASNY Sanitary and Storm Sewer Funds – $500,000
  • Savings over a 5-year period due to Town and Village Water District Consolidation – $1,500,000
  • NYDOS Local Government Efficiency Grant for Water District Consolidation – $400,000
  • NYS Revolving Funds financing at 0% interest for non-grant portions of infrastructure improvements

Laberge Group was able to not only offer the necessary engineering services, but was also a trusted partner in identifying appropriate costs and obtaining the substantial funding essential to completing an implementable plan.

With over 50 years of experience working with a wide rangeof communities, we understand the challenges of successfully implementing municipal projects.
