The Crawford County Development Board is pleased to announce that five local banks have donated $5,105 each to the Crossroads Industrial Park, located on State Route 4 on the north end of Bucyrus. The banks involved are Citizens Bank, FC Bank, First Federal Community Bank, Peoples Savings and Loan, and United Bank.

“We greatly appreciate the support and generosity of these five lending institutions,” commented Jim Spreng, chairman of the board. “The Crossroads Industrial Park is committed to providing high quality jobs to our community. The support that these five banks have given us through the years with loans and now, a donation, is instrumental in allowing us to offer lots in a prime north central Ohio development park at very competitive values.

“Since its beginnings in 1990, the Crawford County Development Board has brought over 900 jobs to our community through the sale of land and the development of businesses in the Crossroads Industrial Park. Through partnerships with state, county, and private enterprises like these banks, the future for continued development in our community is bright,” Spreng concluded.
