We want you to hear your vision for your community!

Dutchess County has received funding through the New York State Department of State Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) program to develop a strategy for revitalizing the former Schatz Bearing Corporation properties located on Fairview Avenue -- see map below. The proposed vision includes a mix of residential and commercial uses, rehabilitating and reusing existing structures, and incorporating new construction and public spaces.

The State's BOA program provides financial and technical assistance to complete area-wide planning efforts to support community revitalization in areas impacted by the real or perceived presence of brownfields and/or underutilized sites. To learn more, please visit the project website -- www.RevitalizeSchatz.com.

Your participation is critical in developing a shared vision for these properties. This 4-minute survey will help the project team understand your ideas for the area, including desired amenities, businesses, and housing.

*Note -- your answers will remain anonymous in the publication of the results.
