New York State Economic Development Council

NYSEDC Project of the Year Nomination Form

The NYSEDC Project of the Year is presented to an organization that has completed a project that serves the mission of the NYSEDC, to promote the economic development of the state and its communities.
Each nomination will be evaluated on the following criteria:

Project's impact on the community (i.e., overall tax base, cross community/multi-agency collaboration, rehabilitation, and adaptive reuse of existing buildings, especially historic properties)
Project's tangible and intangible results (i.e., did the project result in policies, programs, ideas that assisted in developing processes, products, and services into viable competitive businesses; were there resultant improvements to neighborhoods and/or business districts, especially in distressed areas)
Project replicability and transferability (i.e., can the project, program or policy be easily applied in other communities; is there a spin-off effect)
Project innovation and productivity (i.e., was the project cost effective; did it include land acquisition; did it involve a public-private partnership; did it address a globalization issue; does it align with regional economic development strategies, create efficiencies, or address environmental sustainability issues)
Project job retention/creation (i.e., how many jobs were created or retained; how do the salary levels compare to the median wage for similar occupations in the local community/region)
