Business Wire
The Dayton Power and Light Company (DP&L), a subsidiary of
The AES Corporation (NYSE:AES), is working with seven communities
to identify, improve and increase awareness of potential
development sites through its Economic Development Fund.
In October, DP&L announced the availability of $6 million
over three years to stimulate growth of new and expanding
businesses in the Miami Valley. The Economic Development Fund was
created, as part of DP&L’s Electric Security Plan, to support
initiatives that market west Central Ohio through four programs,
including the Site Certification program.
The Site Certification program provides professional expertise
and education to communities for completing essential site
preparation and due diligence to better position undeveloped sites
to attract business investment. Seven locations successfully
submitted applications and recently took part in site visits by
consultants from McCallum Sweeney Consulting. At the end of March,
each location will receive a full analysis of the site and learn if
it has been selected to complete the final phase of site
certification.
The seven locations are:
- A general industrial park at Millcreek
and Kuther Roads in Sidney.
- A super park at Interstate 71 and US 35
in Fayette County.
- A general industrial park at Interstate
70 and Arlington Road in Brookville.
- A general industrial park on Innovation
Way in Greene County.
- A general industrial park on Commerce
Center Boulevard in Fairborn.
- A general industrial site on Patton
Street and Enterprise Lane in Xenia.
- A large park on Airborne Road in
Wilmington.
On March 2, DP&L will host a webinar for interested
communities to learn more about the program. To register, contact
