O’Neal to Host Blight Roundtable Discussion

May 20, 2019

HARRISBURG – Rep. Tim O’Neal (R-Washington) today announced that he will host a roundtable discussion on blight on Thursday, May 30.

The event will be held from 10 a.m. to noon at the Canonsburg Municipal Building,
The public is invited to attend and listen to the discussion.

“This roundtable discussion is modeled after a similar event I hosted with the House Majority Policy Committee last fall concerning opioids,” O’Neal said. “Washington County has much to offer. Before developing green space, we need to focus on revitalizing currently unused previously developed areas. I hope this roundtable will assist with bringing together stakeholders to accomplish this goal.”
