MIDDLEBURG HEIGHTS, Ohio – A decision could come by the end of the month on whether a grant will be awarded to fund up to 75 percent of the land purchase for the proposed Baldwin Creek Preserve.
Middleburg Heights Mayor Matt Castelli updated City Council during the Feb. 9 council meeting.
A Clean Ohio Green Space Conservation Grant application was submitted to the Ohio Public Works Commission in August 2020. Castelli received council’s authorization last October to enter into a purchase agreement with the Western Reserve Land Conservancy for $285,500 to acquire 11 acres of property under the conservancy’s control.
