  • ECC Board of Trustees
    ECC Board of Trustees Executive Summary Date: December 13, 2018 Subcommittee: Consent Agenda Agenda Item: Agreement for Consultant Services requested between SUNY Erie and the Buffalo Public Schools for the New York State Pathways in Technology-3 (P-Tech-3) BESOLAR grant program to align with the college’s Computer and Electronics Technology A.A.S. degree program This item is: For Board's Approval Backup Documentation: Attached to this document Background Information: The Buffalo Public School system was awarded funding through the New York State Education Department’s P-Tech BESOLAR grant program. From Fall 2016 through Fall 2021, each year a new freshman cohort at South Park High School begins in the grant. Starting in grade 10, each cohort begins taking SUNY Erie Advanced Studies courses at South Park. The P-Tech grant covers the cost of student tuition outside of the contract. This contract will cover costs associated with tours and student visits to SUNY Erie, curriculum development and SUNY Erie faculty and staff partner visits for the period August 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. Reasons for Recommendation: Students will have the opportunity to earn SUNY Erie credits through taking course work aligned with the Computer and Electronics Technology A.A.S. degree program. This will facilitate a pipeline of students to matriculate into this degree program at the college. P-Tech grants are awarded throughout New York State through the Department of Education. Fiscal Implications: As the consultant, SUNY Erie will receive up to $9,950. Consequences of Negative Action: Inability to meet grant outcomes.

Many fewer people are familiar with another important case, Gautreaux v. the Chicago Housing Authority, which challenged the then common practice of building public housing in communities characterized by racial segregation and concentrated poverty. Among the remedies ordered by the court were construction of smaller- scale developments in more diverse neighborhoods as well as the provision of housing vouchers permitting members of the protected class to lease private housing in more socio-economically diverse neighborhoods. In a related case, Hills v.

    Adoption STAR is a not-for-profit adoption agency in New York, Ohio and Florida. The agency firmly believes that post adoption contact (open adoption), when appropriate, is what’s best for all parties involved, especially the children. Open adoption visits between adoptive families and birth families should be a time to celebrate the adoption journey and create relationships. These visits can be as simple as a picnic in the park or going swimming at a local pool, to theme parks and adventures. Below you will find an extensive list of open adoption visit ideas for that have been suggested by Adoption STAR clients and staff members in specific areas in New York, Ohio and Florida. This list can be updated regularly, so if you have any suggestions that you do not see on the list, please email [email protected] with the subject "Open Adoption Visit Project" and we will work to add your idea.

  • A Regenerativegrant Street Existing Conditions Report
    A Regenerative Grant Street Existing Conditions Report SUMMER 2020 How has the historical How have rising property practice of redlining values affected Grant continued to impact Street and the surrounding Grant Street? neighborhood? What impact has the refuge and immigrant community had on the growth and development of Grant Street? Planning Process Background and Overview In August of 2019, Preservation Buffalo Niagara was engaged by the offices of New York State Assembly member Sean Ryan and City of Buffalo Common Council Member David Rivera to design and oversee a preservation-based neighborhood planning process for Grant Street. In the initial organizing for the process, emphasis was placed on supporting existing businesses and residents, creating new pathways of opportunity, and preventing displacement or loss of community identity and control. Final deliverables were planned to be inventories and maps of existing and historic conditions of Grant Street, surveys and research into market data and locally served populations, a community engagement process of in-person meetings, coordinating training from the National Main Street Center for local stakeholder leadership, a storefront matchmaking campaign between landlords of available storefronts and potential tenants, and a final recommendations report. Even before the COVID-19 crisis hit, planning in this neighborhood was challenging due to its state of rapid change. Intentionality was built in to ensure that changes to the commercial corridor can be understood, and that any recommendations or tools to City of Buffalo Common come from the process would support existing residents by creating new pathways of Council Member David Rivera opportunity, rather than bending toward external economic development “fixes” that can result in displacement and loss of community identity and control.

What is New York’s Brownfield Cleanup Program? New York’s Brownfield Cleanup Program (BCP) works with private developers to encourage the voluntary cleanup of contaminated properties known as “brownfields” so that they can be reused and developed. These uses include recreation, housing, and business. A brownfield is any real property that is difficult to reuse or redevelop because of the presence or potential presence of contamination. A brownfield typically is a former industrial or commercial property where operations may have resulted in environmental contamination. A brownfield can pose environmental, legal, and financial burdens on a community.
