Governor Kathy Hochul is calling on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide support to local communities in Buffalo. The move is part of a broader effort to address environmental concerns and promote economic development in the region. According to reports, Hochul is seeking funding and resources to help local communities address environmental challenges and promote sustainable development.
"We need to work together to protect our environment and promote economic growth in our local communities," said Hochul.
The EPA has been working to provide support to local communities across the state, and Hochul's call to action is seen as a key step in this effort. The City of Buffalo has been working to address environmental concerns, including the redevelopment of the Buffalo River and the promotion of green infrastructure. The EPA's support will be critical in helping to drive these efforts forward.
As the state and local governments work to address environmental concerns, residents are calling for greater transparency and accountability. The Buffalo Common Council has been holding hearings to discuss environmental issues and promote community engagement. Looking ahead, the community will be watching to see how the EPA responds to Hochul's call to action, with a meeting scheduled for next quarter.
