The Lime City Development Committee of the Huntington County Economic Development Corporation unanimously approved a contribution of $5,000 to support construction of the Huntington County Learning Center.

The project is a collaboration among the private, public, non-profit and educational organizations in Huntington County.

Ground was broken on Oct. 7 on the $1.3 million building project.

The center offers industrial and other career training opportunities to people of all ages in Huntington County.

“The Huntington County Chamber of Commerce and the United Way of Huntington County have led the fund-raising efforts for the project and I’m very excited the Committee is extending financial support for their very, very hard work,” says Mark Wickersham, executive director of Huntington County Economic Development.

“This is an excellent economic development initiative,” says Michael Zahn, president of the Lime City Committee.

“We are very pleased to offer our financial support.”
