New York State Subsidy Tracker

Tracking the State’s Growing Portfolio of Business Subsidies

Regional Economic Development Councils

Gave out $705.3M in subsidies.

Ten regional committees created by Gov. Cuomo to award funding to projects in their areas from various state subsidy programs. More information.

REDC data only includes grants distributed through programs directly overseen by Empire State Development. Other programs, including some in our database, are also involved in distributing funding through the regional councils. But there is no overlap between this data and other data in our database. No jobs reporting is available for these subsidies yet since the state only provided an initial list of approved projects. Years represent when the subsidy was distributed.

Source: Data on subsidies from the Excelsior Jobs Program, Industrial Development Agencies and Local Development Corporations are sourced from New York’s open data portal. IDA data accessed on July 21, 2016. LDC data accessed on Feb. 21, 2017. All other program data sourced from agency reports and Freedom of Information requests to Empire State Development, the state’s economic development arm, and other state agencies. Download the raw program data in the ProPublica Data Store.

Methodology: Read our methodology for collecting the data.

Notes:

Except where otherwise noted, data is for subsidies granted or given out between 2011 and 2014 under the above-named programs. While these programs comprise a significant cross-section of the state’s growing portfolio of economic development programs, they don’t include every subsidy dollar.

Subsidies tracked include grants, tax breaks, low-cost leases and discounted power allocations given out under each program; loans and bond issues are excluded from the data because they have to be repaid.

The number of corporate subsidiaries reflects only the subsidiaries we were able to verify though our research. Companies may have more connections with other companies not listed in the data.

IDA and LDC subsidies are given out by local entities; all other programs are administered by New York State.
