State Senator Steve Santarsiero (D-10) and Representative Tina Davis (D-141) applauded Governor Shapiro’s recent award of $2 million for the redevelopment of North Wilson Avenue in Bristol Township through the Pennsylvania Strategic Investments to Enhance Sites Program (PA SITES).
The funding, requested by Sen. Santarsiero and Rep. Davis, will be used by Crownwood Condo 4 LLC for site preparation activities at the last undeveloped 6.9-acre portion of the Crownwood Industrial Park. Once complete, the site will be able to accommodate a 100,000 square foot facility for industrial use.
“The PA SITES investment in Bristol Township will boost the local economy through the creation of new jobs, tax revenue and the expansion of local industrial economic activity,” said Sen. Santarsiero. “I enthusiastically supported this funding award and applaud Governor Shapiro and DCED Secretary Siger’s partnership in boosting economic potential here in Bucks County.”
“This grant will allow Bristol Township to take a key step forward in preparing the Crownwood Industrial Park for future industrial use,” said Rep. Davis. “By making this site shovel-ready, we’re improving our ability to attract new businesses and support job growth. I appreciate the Commonwealth’s investment in our region and the practical approach PA SITES is taking to strengthen Pennsylvania’s economic foundation. I was proud to advocate for this project and help ensure our community is positioned for long-term economic success.”
The PA SITES Construction Grant serves as gap financing for strategic sites that need financial assistance to help reduce development risk for businesses. The grant funding is intended to help finance strategic investments that will enhance sites across the Commonwealth to effectively compete for expanding and relocating businesses.
