The two grants are from the Ohio Public Works Commission. The grants are for work on Perinwood Lane, Spechtview Drive and Moonridge Drive. Generally, the grants help fund projects that communities would not otherwise be able to afford. It provides for local people making local decisions.
SCIP money is generated by bonds issued by the state.
The money is allocated to counties according to population, then divvied up to communities by an integrating committee made up of local officials. The township makes up the difference. Curbs and gutters will be upgraded, where needed, on those two residential streets. Work could start this summer, with completion expected in December, Mr. Schlimm said. The second project, a reconstruction of Moonridge Drive, is more costly.
