Beshear: Over $700K Approved to Boost Site & Building Development, Support Job Growth in 4 Counties

In Kenton County, The City of Erlanger is seeking funding to support Eons Adventure Park.

(Frankfort, Ky.) - Gov. Andy Beshear has announced over $700,000 in state funding was approved to support site and building development projects in Breckinridge, Washington, Kenton and Todd counties.

“The commonwealth’s commitment to its site and building development initiatives is setting up our communities for future investment and job opportunities,” said Gov. Beshear. “When companies are looking for their next location to grow or relocate, we want them to know Kentucky has the space, resources and workforce available. The KPDI program is critical to the commonwealth’s long-term success, and I am excited to see this next group of projects moving forward.”

The Kentucky Product Development Initiative, or KPDI, provides funding for local communities to boost investment in site and building upgrades to support future, well-paying jobs and economic growth across the commonwealth. This month’s approvals include five projects across four counties.

In Kenton County, The City of Erlanger is seeking funding to support critical site preparation for the redevelopment of a key corridor to Eons Adventure Park.

This area, situated just outside its Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district, holds potential for economic revitalization and community enhancement. With strategic investment, this site will become a cornerstone for attracting high-value businesses for fostering long-term growth.
