NYS agencies are hosting a series of listening sessions on the Bond Act. Attend and find out more about this once-in-a-generation opportunity to protect our coastal communities, combat climate change, preserve open space, upgrade our outdated drinking water and wastewater infrastructure, and support a green economy.
The $4.2 billion Clean Water, Clean Air, and Green Jobs Bond Act was approved by voters last November. This funding will allow our state to undertake urgently needed environmental improvement projects that are vital to New York’s future and provide necessary and overdue investments to solve pressing public health and environmental problems. This funding will:
Protect drinking water and upgrade outdated infrastructure
Safeguard communities from flooding and extreme weather
Conserve open space and family farms
Fight climate change
Advance environmental justice
Strengthen New York’s economy and create over 100,000 jobs
Join a listening session to learn more about the benefits of the Clean Water, Clean Air, and Green Jobs Bond Act. There will also be an opportunity to weigh in with your ideas on how to best use this funding!
