Funding will upgrade septic treatment systems in Trumbull County neighborhood
WEATHERSFIELD TWP., Ohio (WKBN) – Trumbull County will be getting state money to upgrade its water and sewer systems.
Trumbull County is getting $750,000 for the extension of wastewater collection lines in the McKinley Heights area in Weathersfield Township. Currently, residents' household septic treatment systems are failing and discharging into nearby surface water.
A total of $5.75 million is being invested in 14 communities across 13 Ohio counties. The funding will help revitalize downtowns, provide vital public services, and upgrade water and sewer infrastructure.
The money comes from the Flexible Grant and Residential Public Infrastructure Grant programs through the federal Community Development Block Grant. CDBG's main objective is to benefit the lives of low- and moderate-income residents, and improve the communities in which they live.
