Economic Development
The
Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce works closely with the
Allegany County Office of Development
to promote the
economic well being of the region. Together, the Chamber and the
Office of Development serve as a point of contact for prospective
and existing businesses and for those seeking to expand existing
operations.
The
Gateway Project is a plan that was developed by the Main Street
Association for Growth for the purpose of revitalizing downtown
Wellsville. The committee consists of members of our downtown
business district, community residents, the Village government and
the Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce. The project is being
funded in several ways, none of which includes taxpayer dollars.
With the help of Senator Pat McGee and Assemblywoman Catherine
Young, a grant was given to the Village specifically earmarked for
the construction of the Gateway. Additional funds were obtained for
ornamental lighting through the Independent Energy Efficiency
Program. The project includes the installation of architectural
fencing along the arterial, an overhead sign, trees, and
landscaping. Giant Food Mart
is leading the way as a corporate donor, generously providing for
nearly 100 ornamental shrubs that have been planted in front of
their establishment. Please call the Chamber of Commerce if you
have any questions or wish to get involved with the Main Street
Association for Growth.
