The city’s Board of Control on Thursday approved funding for several neighborhood redevelopment initiatives, including renovations to a small retail plaza on the South Side.
The Board, which consists of Mayor Tito Brown, Finance Director Kyle Miasek and Law Director Jeff Limbian, approved $100,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds to help the Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corp. restore a commercial plaza at 2915 Glenwood Ave.
“The roof is being torn off as we speak,” says Ian Beniston, executive director of YNDC.
He says the city funding will be used to install fencing, a new parking lot and sidewalks on the building.
