AI Summary
New York State offers the Local Government Citizens Re-Organization Empowerment Grant (CREG) Program to support planning, implementation, and expedited assistance for local government reorganization efforts. This service-focused grant aims to empower local governments through consolidation and efficiency initiatives.
Applications are being solicited through the New York State Department of State. All CREG opportunites are available at: https://dos.ny.gov/funding-bid-opportunities Please review the RFA to determine which grant opportunity best suites your needs. Below is an overview of the available grant opportunites: 1) Re-Organization Planning Developing consolidation agreements or dissolution plans requires considerable data gathering, analysis, and discussion to understand the current services and responsibilities of each involved local government entity. A re-organization planning project must include an examination of the financial impact of reorganization on all involved local governments, an assessment of potential management and service delivery changes, a review of potential impediments related to re-organization, and a list of recommended steps to complete the re-organization, as well as an inventory of other efficiency options if the re-organization is not completed. A re-organization plan or agreement provides the blueprint for the disposition of a local government entity’s property, services, and obligations. A sample re-organization work plan is described in Appendix C. 2) Re-Organization Implementation Implementation activities pursuant to a dissolution plan or consolidation agreement will be eligible for funding if determined, either by the governing board or by citizen referendum, that re-organization is in the best interests of the local government entity and its residents. 3) Expedited Re-Organization Assistance A referendum on the question of local government re-organization is required when the electors of a local government entity file a petition pursuant to Article 17-A of the General Municipal Law. Local government entities that receive such a petition are eligible to apply for Expedited Re-Organization Assistance to cover costs associated with the development and dissemination of information to the electors prior to the required referendum. Questions are due the third Wednesday of every month. If necessary, RFA updates will be posted the fourth Wednesday of every month.
