Mound money headed region’s way
The former Mound Department of Energy site will receive $20 million from the economic stimulus bill that passed earlier this year, Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, said Tuesday.
The money is aimed at completing the cleanup project, creating 40 jobs in the region and attracting clients for the technology, science and business park.
“The funds will finish the cleanup, but more importantly, they will complete Mound’s transition to a world-class business park,” Brown said. “This park can now compete to bring the most innovative and technologically advanced businesses to the Miami Valley. This cleanup investment is great news for Ohio.”
U.S. Rep. Mike Turner, R-Centerville and former U.S. Rep. David Hobson, R-Springfield, have garnered some $35 million for cleanup of the site thus far.
