Brown Secures Nearly $4 Million for Critical Community Investments

I’m excited to announce nearly $4 million in state funding awarded to community projects in northeastern Pennsylvania funded through the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP). These grants are focused on enhancing public resources, boosting local business growth, strengthening health care infrastructure, and expanding educational facilities—all vital investments that will support essential services and economic development in our region.

Here’s a look at the projects receiving funding and the benefits they’ll bring to our communities:

I am Elizabeth Casciano, the listing agent for the Grace United Church Property and abutting Cemetery on both sides of Sullivan Trail. The living church members are selling the church and cemetery for the SOLE PURPOSE OF RAISING MONEY TO TAKE PERPETUAL CARE OF THE CEMETERY. EVERY DIME OF THE PROCEEDS WILL BE PLACED IN A TRUST MAINTAINED BY THE TANNERSVILLE UNION CEMETERY COMMITTEE, AND THEY WILL BE SOLEY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CARE AND FUTURE PRESERVATION OF THE CEMETERY PROPERTY. IF THE CHURCH IS NOT SOLD AND SOON... IT WILL FALL DOWN. THE PROPERTY IS UNDER CONTRACT, AND THE GENTLEMAN WHO IS PURCHASING IT WILL BE SIGNING DOCUMENTS ENFORCED BY THE SELLERS ATTORNEYS AND BY THE STATE TO ENSURE THE PROTECTION OF THE CEMETERY GROUNDS. THE BUYERS DO NOT HAVE ANY INTENTION AT THIS TIME TO BRING DOWN THE CHURCH AS THEY ARE HOPING IT CAN BE SAVED. THE MAIN ISSUES ARE IN THE FOUNDATION, WHICH I WILL NOT DISCUSS IN THIS POST.
