The Allen County Land Bank is kicking off what could be quite a few brownfield remediation projects in the county. Members of their board came today to check out the work being done at their first Brownfield project, the demolition of the former Hofeller, Hiatt, and Clark building. It will make way for the new Allen County administration building. The state awarded them a $250,000 grant for the demolition. For brownfield projects, there are risks like asbestos or other potentially harmful chemicals that need to be removed before demolition starts.
