Senator Costa Announces $4 Million for Swissvale

April 24, 2022 by slimonl

We are delighted to announce some exciting news from Senator Jay Costa’s office!

According to Costa, “Public services in Swissvale are going to see major upgrades in the coming months thanks to these grants we secured today. Libraries are a local treasure and I’m always happy to support the strong library system we have in this region.”

The historic Carnegie Free Library of Swissvale will receive $1.5 million to rehabilitate the library, including improvements to the original building and construction of a new 2 story addition that will house an elevator, stairway, along with an entrance plaza – all ADA compliant.

The projects funded today are part of the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP), a state grant program administered by the Office of the Budget for the acquisition and construction of regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational, and historical improvement projects.

RACP projects are authorized in the Redevelopment Assistance section of a Capital Budget Itemization Act, have a regional or multi-jurisdictional impact, and generate substantial increases or maintain current levels of employment, tax revenues, or other measures of economic activity.
