3 Wallkill Valley Times, Wednesday, December 26, 2018 Montgomery Winery City Winery graphic City Winery plans to create a winery complex on the banks of the Wallkill River in Montgomery Continued from page 1 event space and restaurant. The property will be the first non- urban winery for the metropolitan chain with locations in New York City, Chicago, Atlanta, Nashville, Washington, D.C. and Boston. The facility will also be the first to aid in the production of other City Winery sites along with offering the various experimental elements of wine and wine making to the public. The project will hold its first public hearing on Jan. 15. Maybrook, Galaxy Park receive state grants Continued from page 1 Galaxy Limited received a $600,000 ESD grant to complete phase one of the multi-phase project, which includes preparation of several site pads and an access road. With its proximity to Interstate-84 and New York City, Maybrook has the potential for a great amount of economic development, Leahy said. “This site is being recognized as a very lucrative location for bringing business into the county and into the town,” Leahy said. Leahy hopes the Galaxy project and the downtown revitalization plan will draw more businesses into the village and take the tax burden off residents. “We’re trying to make a vibrant main street again,” Leahy said. Maybrook also received a $24,000 New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Wastewater Engineering Planning Grant (EPG) to complete an engineering report to evaluate disinfection alternatives at its wastewater treatment plant. The grant will help pay for the initial planning of Clean Water State Revolving Fund water quality projects. The ultimate goal of the EPG program is to advance water quality projects to construction so successful applicants can use the engineering reports funded by the grant to seek financing through the state or other funding source. This is the first year Maybrook received a CFA grant. The village applied last year but did not receive any grants. “Last year we were knocking at the door, and this year we got our foot in the door so that’s a big step for the village,” Leahy said. Leahy said the village board will continue to apply for grants through the next phases of the downtown revitalization plan. Maybrook also applied for a New York State Downtown Revitalization Initiative Grant earlier this year—a $10 million grant awarded to municipalities nominated by the state’s ten Regional Economic Development Councils—but did not receive it.
