City of Coshocton celebrates investment from the state
The City of Coshocton and Our Town Coshocton said two projects will receive funding from the state capital budget .
Within the capital budget is $ 60,000 for improvements to Roscoe Village walking areas and infrastructure and
$ 45,000 for the Selby renovation .
“ I want to thank Sen . Jay Hottinger and Rep . Kevin Miller for their advocacy to our city in the legislature . Coshocton will make smart use of any dollar made available to it . While we are not waiting to make our community safer and more inviting to visitors and outside investment , these monies from the legislature come at an important time for the historic downtown and Roscoe Village ,” Mayor Mark Mills said .
The administration and OTC understand Coshocton lies within the sphere of reach for the incoming Intel plant a county over . There has been a doubling down of efforts to focus on downtown revitalization and making Coshocton an attractive option for ancillary businesses and folks relocating from urban centers around the state and country .
Hottinger offered an amendment to Am . HB 377 that appropriates $ 500 million in the American Rescue Plan Act to the Governor ’ s Community Grant Program . This would have an emphasis on projects in infrastructure , workforce and health in Ohio ’ s 32 Appalachia counties .
“ It is my hope these dollars from the capital budget foreshadow the potential dollars that would be made available by Gov . DeWine ’ s $ 500 million pitch to fund projects in historic rural communities . We ’ re not waiting , but we are ready for when the statehouse would answer the governor ’ s call for Appalachia ,” Mills said .
“ We are grateful to Sen . Hottinger and Rep . Miller for including our historic district and historic Roscoe Village in the capital budget . These monies are a tremendous vote of confidence , as we are repairing the worst damage to the Selby building and clearing the runway for a multiple-purpose end use in the private sector ,” said Lanny Spaulding , OTC director .
The mayor and Our Town director both indicated they would continue to seek all funding pools as they arise and work to bring those dollars back to both sides of the bridge , for historic downtown and for Roscoe Village .
