CONCERNED BUSINESS MEN
Phil Antonio addressed the board reaffirming that the purpose of this group of concerned businessmen is to improve the conditions in our community and not to show discontent with leadership or the Village and Town boards. They would like to see forward thinking leadership through an advisory partnership consisting of business, industry, lenders, government and residents to provide a vision and guidance to the area for the future. They feel the Village and Town boards should be working for the greatest good of the people to make Arcade first and prosperous again. Another goal of the committee is to promote and retain the businesses we have.
Doug Berwagner, Town Supervisor and Chairman of the Board for Wyoming County also addressed those present regarding economic development issues for the area. He feels that zoning can be an impediment to economic development not only in Arcade but also throughout the county. He feels that zoning is too restrictive and needs to be user friendly for recruitment of businesses. He also discussed the IDA, Empire Zones, agricultural land use, and land use in general. The county recognizes that it needs direction in these areas and has established a task force of members from the County, the IDA and the Wyoming County Chamber of Commerce to address these issues. Mr. Berwanger also stated that Arcade is the commerce capital of the County.
The board has requested that the group return to the July 20th meeting with their Mission Statement and goals for the committee.
