Cutrona Announces Funds for Mahoning County

COLUMBUS—State Senator Al Cutrona (R-Canfield) announced that 1034 Wick Avenue in Mahoning County will receive $265,100 to help clean up and restore the building. 

"It is important that the state allocates funds to projects like this, so they have the ability to properly rebuild and create economic opportunities throughout the region," said Cutrona. "Brownfield remediation is something that I have been and will continue to advocate for." 

This funding is part of the Ohio Brownfield Remediation Program that is currently funded through House Bill 33, the state's main operating budget which Cutrona co-sponsored. This program aims to help clean up industrial, commercial, and institutional brownfield sites. The grant program launched in 2021 and since then has awarded more than $490 million to support 462 projects in 84 counties.
