Local officials are being invited to Batavia City Hall at 1:30 p.m. Thursday where Gov. Andrew Cuomo is expected to make an announcement.
What Cuomo will announce is not revealed in the invitation, but the City of Batavia did submit an application to Cuomo's office for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative contest, which carries a $10 million award for one municipality in each of the state's economic development regions.
While winners have been announced in other regions, the winner of the contest in the Finger Lakes region has not yet been announced.
Local officials cannot discuss the reason for Cuomo's visit.
