The Ohio Department of Development announced that six Ohio communities will receive $300,000 from the newly-formed Brownfield Action Plan Pilot Program, to create and implement a plan for a brownfield-impacted area of their community. The program will provide technical assistance in the first phase of the project to help develop a community's Brownfield Action Plan. In the second phase, grant funding is available to implement action plan activities. The two-phase process is designed to quickly, but thoughtfully, develop an actionable plan and maintain momentum to ensure the plan's next steps are taken, increasing the likelihood and speed with which properties will transform into economically beneficial locations.
