County getting $1.25 million for A-C Valley business park water and sewage systems
Butler County is getting the last $1.25 million grant needed to replace the failing Allegheny-Clarion Valley Business Park water and sewer systems.
County officials announced Wednesday, May 10, that they had just received confirmation from the Appalachian Regional Commission about the approval of the grant for the $4.66 million project aimed at bringing clean drinking water and a safe sewer system to the park where more than 400 people work.
County commissioners said they will have to vote on the ARC grant agreement at their May 24 meeting because the agreement arrived too late to be placed on the agenda for Wednesday’s meeting.
The rest of the project funding is coming from a state grant received in 2020, federal American Rescue Plan funding received last year and other grants, said Mark Gordon, county chief of economic development and planning.
