Lawrence County, Ohio, will receive a grant of $300,000 from the state of Ohio’s Small Cities Community Development Block Grant Economic Development Program. The money will be used to assist Rumpke of Ohio with an economic development project. That project is expected to cost around $4.7 million.
The Lawrence County Port Authority will purchase 42 acres of land that is located on County Road 1 in Haverhill, Ohio, and construct a 38,000 square-foot building. Rumpke of Ohio will lease 13 acres of the land and the building and purchase machinery and equipment. The new facility will house the company's regional sales, maintenance, recycling and transfer facility.
The CDBG funds will be used to install 1,400 linear feet of street improvements.
