Santucci Applauds Funding for Trumbull Correctional Institution

COLUMBUS— State Rep. Nick Santucci (R-Howland Twp.) today announced that significant funding for a project at the Trumbull Correctional Institution was approved by the Ohio State Controlling Board.

“This funding is a good step towards bettering our facilities in Trumbull County and raising our standards,” Santucci said. “I am going to work to continue to bring more funds back to the area and help our region grow.”

The Trumbull Correctional Institution will use this funding for their Cooler Freezer Replacement Project. The project will replace old mechanical systems in the food service coolers and freezers and ensure they are up to code.

The Trumbull Correctional Institution is set to receive roughly $798,954 to complete this project.

The Ohio State Controlling Board is the financial legislative oversight for capital and operating expenditures by state agencies. The next Controlling Board meeting is scheduled for Feb. 6.
