Batavia city management unveiled the 2018 budget with an overview presentation to City Council. For the first time, the budget is built around a single 5-year goal to realize $100 million of investment in the City in the next five years. To put this in perspective, the City Manager said there had been almost this amount invested over the past decade, so management is actually suggesting the City DOUBLE its speed of investment. The budget introduced four priorities to achieve that goal: FOCUS on growth, Organizational Excellence, Neighborhood Investment and BIG Collaborative Projects.
The Batavia Development Corporation is a proud partner to achieve the City’s ambitious goal. To see the City Manager’s Budget Message, click here,

An unprecedented Batavia Pathway to Prosperity policy was instituted in March 2016 following months of dialogue between City and County officials. Each taxing jurisdiction agreed to repurpose a share of future payments on lieu of tax to leverage private investment made in the City’s central corridor, a unique incentive to advance redevelopment. A five partner strategic alliance was born for program implementation between Genesee County, City of Batavia, Batavia City School District, GCEDC and BDC.
