Eight blighted properties in the city, of Pottsville, will be torn down with some of the $1.4 million in state grant funds awarded to the county in January 2017.
According to the Republican Herald, City council approved a Schuylkill County Demolition Program contract between the city and the county at its May 14 meeting.
County Administrator Gary Bender said the total amount awarded to the city is $157,414.
The county approved the funding in December and the city can now submit invoices for the work.
