The Trumbull Neighborhood Partnership (TNP) released its annual report for 2025 on Friday, January 16.

To begin the report, the TNP thanked the residents of Warren and Trumbull County as a whole, alongside its community partners.

Unaudited revenue and expenses for the 2025 year were released in the report, including:

  • Revenue
    • Foundations: $1,087,066.09
    • Government and other grants: $1,816,690.21
    • Government and other contracts: $459,999.96
    • Program income: $1,194,470.76
    • Other income: $121,525.47

    • Trumbull County Land Bank: $2,783,485.68
    • Garden Resources of Warren: $208,062.78
    • Warren Enriched: $448,379.52
    • Building a Better Warren: $154,238.06

Overall, the TNP saw an unaudited profit of $787,602.56.

Several renovation projects are noted in the annual report. Each buyer-renovated home is listed as a previously condemned building.

Now, through the Land Bank's Deed-in-Escrow program and the work put in by homeowners, the properties are now owned, occupied and add value to the community.

Three properties are highlighted. A home on Willard Avenue saw a $50,000 buyer renovated investment, while a house and side lot on Jackson Street saw a $151,300 investment and a home and two side lots on East Avenue saw an investment of $25,850.

Meanwhile, featured properties that were renovated internally saw a total investment of $294,300.

Cleanup efforts are continuing through the TNP at the former Diversified Resources site and the former RG Steel blast furnace site, noted to be "brownfields" in the report. 

A brownfield, according to the Merriam-Webster website, is a piece of land that had been developed for industrial purposes, polluted and then abandoned.

The cleanup project at the former Diversified Resources site was funded through a U.S. E.P.A. Brownfield Cleanup Grant, as well as the U.S. E.P.A. Emergency Response Program.

The work being done at the former RG Steel site is being funded through the Ohio Department of Development's Brownfield Revitalization Program, which helped to leverage $17.2 million from the All Ohio Future Fund. That funding will be used to further improve the site and add infrastructure.

The Kimberly-Clark Corporation has committed to purchasing and constructing an $800 million facility at the site, and has considered building an additional $120 million distribution facility.

As part of the Mahoning Valley TreeCorps, the TNP was able to plant 310 shade trees during the second and third planting seasons.
