The Ohio House of Representatives has passed Substitute House Bill 2, the state’s two-year construction budget for capital projects. State Representative Tim Barhorst (R-Fort Loramie) announced that the Capital Budget will make significant investments in local community projects.
Barhorst secured funding for several projects in Logan County, including:
- Calvary Christian Schools – $250,000
- Logan County Sewer District Flat Branch Upgrades – $1,500,000
- Columbus Street Bridge Repair – $1,265,000
- Piatt Castle - $44,000
“The capital budget is all about bringing state taxpayer dollars back to the area,” said Barhorst. “The investments made within Logan County, the district and across Ohio will benefit our communities for generations to come.”
In addition to these community projects, the legislation includes a statewide investment of $24 million for Transportation Research Center Inc. using one-time funds.
“TRC is a critical asset for the 85th District and the robust automotive industry throughout our great state,” said Barhorst. “These funds will ensure TRC will remain on the forefront of transportation and mobility research.”
Substitute House Bill 2 now awaits a signature from the Governor.
