Rumor
The City of Geneva has the authority and/or jurisdiction regarding the proposed Campana project located at the corner of Route 31 and Fabyan Parkway.

Fact
The City of Geneva does not have the authority or jurisdiction regarding the proposed Campana redevelopment project since it is located in the City of Batavia.

Geneva officials, however, will continue to monitor the proposal, and provide comment when appropriate based upon agreements in place between the City of Geneva and the City of Batavia.

On May 2, 2017 the Batavia City Council’s Committee of the Whole reviewed an initial land use proposal. A complete development application was received on June 1 and has been reviewed by City of Batavia staff.

The Batavia Plan Commission gave a positive recommendation to the project Sept. 6 after hosting a public hearing that spanned several meetings. The Batavia City Council also has discussed the issue during the course of several meetings. The developer later pulled the application, and the project will not be moving forward.
