From State Rep. Chris Rosario:
Representative Christopher Rosario (D-Bridgeport) applauded $3,000,000 to support soil remediation at the 16.86-acre site located at 731 Seaview Avenue. Formerly home to CarTech’s steel mill operations, the privately-owned site is impacted by widespread contamination.
“This funding will help advance our efforts to bring underutilized parcels back onto the grand list and stimulate economic activity,” Rep. Rosario said. “I am grateful to Governor Lamont and the State Bond Commission for their support and approval of this important measure.”
Remediation will prepare the site for redevelopment, enabling Bridgeport Boatworks to occupy a newly constructed facility and allowing Hornblower Marine to expand their operations within existing on-site buildings.
The funding was approved by the State Bond Commission at today’s 10:30 am meeting.
