LAKEWOOD The Chautauqua Avenue Green Street Retrofit project is set to begin construction this month.
The village of Lakewood received a grant from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation via the Green Innovation Grant Program and Clean Water State Revolving Fund in 2018 that has allowed it to undertake the project.
This project is the result of a study published in 2018 by the village of Lakewood and town of Busti Storm Water Management Engineering Study.
Although the project is aimed at redirecting the silt flow from storm water, byproducts of this product include the increased health of Chautauqua Lake and a better-looking village, officials said.
