Land Bank pushes for brownfield funding
By Kyle Shaner - kshaner@sidneydailynews.com
SIDNEY – Money for cleaning up brownfield sites hasn’t been secured, but lawmakers seem to have noticed a push for funding from the Shelby County Land Reutilization Corp. and other groups.
During Tuesday’s Land Bank meeting, Director Doug Ahlers said he’s been in contact with the Ohio Land Bank Association and the Western Reserve Land Conservancy about securing funding to clean up brownfield land, which is previously developed land that is not in use and might be contaminated.
Among the sites the Shelby County Land Bank would like to see cleaned up is the former Wagner foundry in Sidney.
