Introduction
The Village of Middleport is a village located on the historic Erie Barge Canal in Niagara County, New York. We are about equidistant from Buffalo, Niagara Falls, and Rochester. As of the 2000 US Census, the population of the Village is 1,917 residents.
The Village's motto is "A Friendly Community." When US President Franklin D. Roosevelt stopped in Middleport during a trip on the canal, he commented that Middleport looked like "a friendly community." We take pride in our Village and hope that when you visit, you find that we live up to our motto.
After many years of service, Julie Maedl has stepped down as chair of the Middleport Festivities, which are held the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. Thank you, Julie, for all of your hard work making this event successful. The Village is looking for someone to step into this volunteer position for future Festivities, starting in 2012. For more information please call Rebecca Schweigert, Clerk-Treasurer, at (716) 735-3303 or contact her by email at ClerkTreasurer@villageofmiddleport.org. |
