Mahoning, Columbiana counties receives funding to remove 69 vacant buildings

Blight areas in Mahoning and Columbiana counties are about to be reduced.

Both counties will receive $500,000 to remove 30 vacant buildings in Mahoning County and 39 in Columbiana County.

The Ohio Department of Development funds the Brownfield Remediation Program, which assists communities in removing industrial, commercial, or institutional buildings or property cleanup, while the Building Demolition and Site Revitalization Program provides grants for demolishing commercial and residential buildings. 

The awards went to 65 counties and totaled $33.2 million to demolish 1,091 vacant buildings.
