Trumbull County Forms Land Bank
Congratulations to leaders in Trumbull County who this week voted to approve the formation of a county land bank. This announcement marks the third county land bank formed in Ohio, following both Cuyahoga County and Lucas County. Trumbull county plans to initially use the land bank to assist in the county's vacant side lot program, which allows residents to purchase vacant land next to their property. They also hope to work with contractors to help rehabilitate homes in the land bank and place them back up for sale to get them back on the tax rolls.
