DUNKIRK, N.Y. (WIVB) — The Chautauqua County Partnership for Economic Growth (CCPEG) is looking for partners to help revitalize the county.
They’re inviting municipalities, nonprofits, academic institutions, economic development organizations, and community organizations to apply for project funding or other support as the CCPEG prepares to develop its 2024 work plan.

“These collaborative partnerships have demonstrated their effectiveness in fostering shared prosperity, and we are pleased to once again support projects that will build on the momentum we are generating across the county,” Deputy County Executive for Economic Development Mark Geise said.
