Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the DRI in 2016 in efforts to invest in New York state communities.
“As we keep building strategies for a stronger future for the Southern Tier region,” 58th District State Senator Tom O’Mara said in a statement.
“[T]his investment in Hornell will continue to help the city move forward, revitalize the downtown for businesses and residents alike, and encourage a transformation that will benefit the entire area,” he added.
Other downtown revitalization funding winners over the last few years include Elmira, Penn Yan, Watkins Glen, Cortland, Owego and Oneonta.
