John Announces Funding for Local Richland County Projects

State Rep. Marilyn John (R-Richland County) announces approval of several local projects through the Ohio State Controlling Board. The measures include thousands of dollars for both OSU-Mansfield and the Mansfield Correctional Institution.

“I’m very pleased with the continued local project approvals we are receiving from the Controlling Board, which will go a long way in helping with improvements for entities right here in Richland County,” said John.

The following appropriations for the projects include:

·         $57,060 for two renovation projects for OSU-Mansfield

·         $31,000 for building renovations at the Mansfield Correctional Institution

John also announced last month hundreds of thousands of dollars for more local project improvements approved by the Controlling Board for OSU-Mansfield.

The next Controlling Board meeting is scheduled for Aug. 30.
