Ingram Announces $22M Investment in Hamilton County Projects
Today, state Senator Catherine D. Ingram (D-Cincinnati) commended the Ohio Senate’s passage of the state’s capital budget (Senate Bill 450), which includes $10.2 million within Ohio’s 9th Senate District and over $22 million for Hamilton County as a whole.
"I am pleased to see projects across our district receive funding through this capital budget, particularly those that may have been overlooked in the past," said Ingram.
