YNDC is pleased to announce our 2014 Lots of Green 2.0 Project Competition, meant to assist groups throughout the city in performing vacant land reuse projects.
Project winners will receive up to $8,000 in contractor labor for their projects. Winning projects will have strong community benefit, have the support of surrounding neighbors, and will be located within the City of Youngstown. The applicant commits to maintaining the project after completion.
