Re: Contract Extension Request - Approved
NYS CDBG Project # 287ED967-21
The NYS Office of Community Renewal (OCR) is in receipt of the Town of Cortlandville’s letter requesting an extension
beyond the project completion deadline of March 10, 2023. The decision to extend the project completion date is
based on, but not limited to, several factors such as past performance of the recipient, the nature of the delay, and
whether the project can be completed within a reasonable extended timeframe.
Based on OCR’s review and careful consideration the Town of Cortlandville’s request for an extension has been
granted, and your revised project completion date is April 1, 2024, at which time the grant agreement will terminate.
The project must be completed and all costs incurred no later than the completion date of the grant agreement. Please
be advised that any costs incurred after the revised project completion date will be ineligible for NYS CDBG
reimbursement. Further requests for extension beyond April 1, 2024 may not be considered. According to NYS
CDBG policies the Town of Cortlandville will have up to 30 days after the revised completion date to submit a final
reimbursement request for costs incurred up to the completion date. Following the submission of the final request for
funds, all remaining NYS Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for this project will be deobligated and
reallocated according to New York State’s Action Plan.
We share in your goal of successfully completing the project; therefore, we will work with you to closely monitor the
progress and provide you with technical assistance as needed.
Please contact Community Developer Lindsay.Kirk@hcr.ny.gov within the next five days to discuss a schedule to
complete your project within the revised timeframe and to formally close out your project.
Sincerely,
Charles Philion
Program Director
Office of Community Renewal
