State Representative Meredith Craig (R-Smithville) is pleased to share that the City of Wooster was awarded $500,000 through the Community Development Block Grant Program to complete critical infrastructure projects within the community.

With this funding, the City of Wooster will replace deteriorating waterlines in its historic Arts District to improve water service and support fire protection. The project will benefit over 1,600 people in the community. 

"I am excited to see these taxpayer dollars coming back to Wayne County to address important infrastructure needs and support the long-term vitality of downtown Wooster," said Craig.
