The Summit County Department of Community and Economic Development offers various programs that assist in increasing the quality of life within our community. Through the Home Weatherization Program (HWAP) and the HOME program, we are able to identify and assist those qualified individuals in completing much-needed home improvement.

Our CDBG program assists communities and various non-profit organizations in completing local projects that otherwise may have been postponed.

Through our Economic Development programs, we have assisted hundreds of businesses with tax incentives which resulted in retaining and creating thousands of jobs. Our Ohio Public Works Commission funding support road and bridge projects throughout Summit County and the Clean Ohio funds help support our Clean Ohio endeavor.
