Exciting news for Herkimer County!

We're excited to share that Herkimer County has secured $2 million in Northern Border Regional Commission funding for two major infrastructure projects.

The funding will support a 500,000-gallon, 210-foot new elevated water storage tank at Schuyler Business Park and the construction of a 9,800-foot municipal sewer service in Herkimer. Together, these projects will strengthen infrastructure capacity, support existing businesses, and help create opportunities for future growth and investment throughout Herkimer County.

This past Friday, we had the privilege of hosting an unveiling ceremony in honor of Senator James L. Seward and his tremendous contributions to Herkimer County and the Mohawk Valley. It was a special morning dedicated to recognizing his decades of public service, leadership, and unwavering commitment to our region.

We are incredibly thankful to the elected officials, community leaders, family members, friends, and residents who joined us to celebrate Senator Seward’s legacy and the lasting impact he has made on countless communities throughout New York State.

A special thank you to Valley Signs that designed and created the memorial sign for helping us establish a meaningful and lasting tribute in Senator Seward’s honor.

See a few photos below of the event.

This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country.
