Contact: John Fell, Office of Strategic Planning Phone: 851-5035 Email: southbuffaloboa@city-buffalo.com The City of Buffalo has been awarded a significant grant through the New York State Departments of State and Environmental Conservation Brownfield Opportunity Area Program to conduct a Nomination Study for the South Buffalo Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA). The Nomination Study will be an in-depth analysis and masterplan for approximately 1,800 acres of strategically located, but largely underutilized land in South Buffalo (proximate to the Lake Erie waterfront, the Buffalo River and along major transportation infrastructure including New York State Route 5). The South Buffalo BOA is a project that is crucial to the renaissance of Buffalo, and important for charting the reclamation and redevelopment of these valuable lands. The City of Buffalo has retained the expertise of environmental, land use, and economic consultants to formulate the South Buffalo BOA Step 2 Nomination Document in consultation with municipal staff, elected officials, local, state and federal agencies, and non-governmental stakeholders including community organizations, landowners and developers. The process will include extensive community involvement intended to solicit feedback and participation from the community. The study process is anticipated to run from November 2007 until March 2009.
