A $4 million grant has been awarded to the Lebanon Valley Exposition Corporation for the construction of a new exposition center building on the grounds of the Lebanon Valley Exposition Center complex.

A $250,000 grant was awarded to Whole Plants LLC to support construction of up to three retail dispensaries that allow Whole Plants Health to sell products directly to its patients.
“I advocated for these economic development projects, and I am gratified that the funding has been approved,” said Schlegel. “These are important projects in our district and will help strengthen our local economy.”
