The Village of Monroe is preparing an application for up to $4.5 million through the NY Forward program.

• Due Date: August 22, 2025

These programs aim to fund shovel-ready, transformational projects that will enhance the economic vitality and long-term resilience of Monroe’s downtown.

Projects submitted for inclusion should:

• Be high-impact, transformational, and contribute to long-term economic and community development goals.

• Projects should be well-defined and ready for implementation, but not time-sensitive, as funding would not be available until 2027.

• Project Sponsors are also asked to provide the Village with a Letter of Intention to be included in the Village’s application. A template for this letter will be provided after the Village reviews the submitted Project Interest Form.
