Our Mission

The mission of the Cohoes Local Development Corporation is to stimulate economic development in the City of Cohoes. The CLDC approach will be community-driven, and comprehensive. The CLDC will partner with stakeholders from the City of Cohoes, the Cohoes School District, local chambers of commerce and the private sector. We will use a vast number of economic tools including loan and grant programs and appropriate training programs. In addition the CLDC will support services not available through other entities, such as promoting community events, regional tourism and arts events..
