What’s next in Aurora after Wells College closure?

With Wells College set to close this year, Aurora is planning for the future of the village and its land.

The Citizen reports the village is revising zoning laws and addressing short-term rental regulations to shape its next steps.

The village is rezoning Wells-owned properties to attract investors, with a public meeting set for July 29 to discuss the changes.

Additionally, Aurora, along with Cayuga and Union Springs, received a $10 million state grant for downtown revitalization. Plans include taking over Wells’ water plant and keeping key community services open, ensuring a stable future for Aurora.
