Ohio Wednesday, June 27, 2012 Counties are expected to make a late rush for Ohio demolition grants Settlement from mortgage services is expected to clean up thousand of properties by WKSU's SIMON HUSTED | Reporter Simon Husted | | |

In The Region: Local governments and land banks across Ohio have until Monday to apply for state grants to help demolish and clean up thousands of vacant and blighted properties.
So far, the state has applications from 12 counties and has granted extensions to five others to apply for a share of the $75 million.
That leaves 71 Ohio counties still unaccounted for, but Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine is confident all will eventually be asking.
His office has already calculated the maximum amount each county get. |
“It is based entirely on a three-year period of time that was at the heart of the crisis, and we look at the number of foreclosures that took place in each county and then just do a mathematical formula. So if a county has more foreclosures they’re going to get more money. If they have less foreclosures, they’re going to get less money. That’s really about the only way that we can think of being fair to do it.”
The $75 million came to the state as part of a national $25 billion settlement with five of the nation’s largest mortgage servicers. The states and the federal government accused them of foreclosure abuses and fraud. |
