Chris Smalley, Director – Wood County Parks

Great news for the Wood County Park District and the many folks who enjoy the Slippery Elm Trail!
Listen to Clint’s conversation with Chris Smalley, Director of Wood County Parks, after we got word that Nearly $52 million in grants will be distributed over the next four years to improve safety and connectivity for pedestrians and bicyclists across Ohio, including approximately $800,000 for a resurfacing project for the trail!
Great news for the village of Portage as well. The Portage sidewalk replacement will also receive funding for the sidewalk portion of the SR 25 Portage Resurfacing Project. This project will replace approximately 3,400 feet of concrete sidewalk along both sides of Findlay Pike/SR 25.
