New banking location opens in Chillicothe
LCNB National Bank celebrated its new office opening with a ribbon cutting on July 24.
WELLSTON – Buckeye Construction & Restoration, LLC. has been performing masonry and restoration work in southern Ohio for more than 40 years.
The small company continues to grow and with a $50,000 grant from Fluor-BWXT (FBP) and the Joint Economic Development Initiative of Southern Ohio, the company plans to expand with the purchase and redevelopment of an underutilized property.
“This is exactly why we provide these grants,” said FBP Community Commitment Chair, Tim Poe. “We want these small businesses to continue to grow and create additional jobs. Not only is BCR able to do this, but they will also utilize space that has been sitting empty.”
The nearly 36,000-square-foot facility sits on approximately five acres. After restoration, the building will serve as BCR’s new headquarters and training facility with space remaining to house other tenants.
“After renovations are completed we will be able to add 10 more employees,” said Jake Miller of BCR. “This will be a multiphase redevelopment project and we appreciate the support of FBP and JEDISO.”
As part of Fluor-BWXT’s community commitment, significant economic investments are being made in the region through FBP’s partnership with JEDISO. The goal is to create and retain jobs for a sustainable and strong economy in
This isn’t the only recent Fluor-BWXT investment:
- FBP and JEDISO awarded $25,000 to Hostetler Truss in Chillicothe for an expansion project that will create six more jobs and diversify their product line.
- FBP and JEDISO have also provided a $17,613 grant to the City of Wellston and Montgomery Trucking and Prime, Inc., to aid in the expansion of the trucking company that provides support to three large manufacturing companies in the area.
- FBP and JEDISO presented a grant of $50,000 to the Jackson County Economic Development Partnership (JCEDP). The grant will aid in the construction of a spec building and complete construction of a roadway.
