Niagara Aerospace Museum Receives $15,000 From Sen. Ortt

State Senator Rob Ortt (R,C,I – North Tonawanda) today delivered a combined $90,000 in state funding to support essential programs and services in Niagara County. The Senator secured the funds as part of the 2015-16 State Budget.

Senator Ortt presented a ceremonial check to the Niagara Aerospace Museum in the amount of $15,000. The museum, which relocated to an empty terminal at the Niagara Falls International Airport in Wheatfield a couple years ago, will use the money for day to day operating costs for the facility. The museum will also use a portion of the funds for its educational and cultural programs.
