Here's a list of projects county-wide that are being funded by federal stimulus money. [a href="http://www.recovery.org/For_Businesses.aspx?gloc=ASHLAND%20[OH]*CNT:39005&mloc=OH$005"]http://www.recovery.org/For_Businesses.aspx?gloc=ASHLAND%20[OH]*CNT:39005&mloc=OH$005[/a] Just in case that's a browser specific link, you can go to www.recovery.org and there you'll find a map of the United States. If you click on the state of Ohio, that will bring up a map of all 88 counties. If you hover your pointer over the counties, it will tell you how many projects that county has, and how much total stimulus money has been allocated. If you click on the county, it gives you a breakdown of the projects, how much each project costs, and how many jobs it'll create, if any. Ashland County so far has 7 projects, valued at almost 7 million dollars.

Makes you wonder how many of these dollars are going to employ Ashland County residents. I know that the work on 302 and 42 are already underway, if this is the same work that was given the stimulus dollars. We don't hear about this much though.
