Town Of Friendship

Town Of Friendship, doing business as Town Hall, is a U.S. local government entity (township) that receives federal grants as a prime recipient for water and wastewater infrastructure projects, with no federal contracting presence. The Town operates as a grant recipient only; it does not compete for federal contracts and holds no position on federal contract vehicles.

The Town's federal activity centers on municipal water and wastewater system improvements funded through cooperative agreements and emergency-management grants. As a prime recipient, the Town received a $2.2 million combined federal grant footprint across four awards spanning 2015 through 2025. The most recent and largest award is a cooperative agreement from the Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 (awarded February 1, 2025, with ultimate completion targeted for September 1, 2027) that funds the Town's Water System Improvements Project, including installation of a new 150,000-gallon water storage tank, a new groundwater supply well, and associated watermain interconnections to the existing distribution system. The grant explicitly carries no subawards; the Town is the sole performance entity.

In addition to its EPA-funded water infrastructure grant, the Town acts as a sub-recipient on two emergency-management grants from the New York State Division of Homeland Security & Emergency Services, both awarded in early 2024, for generators at a municipal well and the wastewater treatment plant. These awards were made under the Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards program structure. The Town's customer agencies across all four awards are the Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 (1 award), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (2 awards via New York State), and the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service (1 award).

Activity is sparse and episodic: one award in 2015, two in 2024, one in 2025. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, generating minimal recompete activity. The Town operates exclusively in a grant-recipient capacity for local infrastructure and emergency preparedness, with no federal contracting or business development footprint in the federal procurement marketplace.
