The city recently received $235,000 in funding from the State of Ohio for several of its projects.

Dominion Energy has given $10,000 in Community Impact Awards to Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation (YNDC) and Economic Action Group, Youngstown.

The Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation is having an online auction to sell 28 items or batches of items left behind when the group bought the former Foster Theater on Glenwood Avenue. 

Included in the auction are movie projectors, signs and movie reels. One listing called “eight parts related to film” contains film splice tape patches, for example.

Proceeds from the auction will benefit revitalization of the theater by YNDC.

With this new rule change, an FHA loan may now be possible for someone who couldn't qualify months ago, or they "could get tens of thousands to $100,000 more, depending on the scenario,” said Matt Moore of Amerifirst Poland.

The Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation can usually be seen around the Idora neighborhood, fixing up homes and businesses.
