A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Wednesday morning for the four-point-five-million-dollar Char House Renovation Project at 251 Ninth Street in Charleroi Borough. Washington County Commissioners, along with federal, state and local officials were on hand to celebrate the project, which involved the replacement of the building’s electrical, plumbing and sanitary systems; new common area flooring and painting, the renovation of the community room kitchen and public restrooms, along with the kitchens, bathrooms, patio doors and windows of the apartments. In addition, the parking lot was also paved. Char House was built in 1979 on the site of the former Charleroi Ninth Street School. Residents of Char House must be sixty-two-years of age of older or persons with a disability, and their annual income cannot exceed 56-thousand-700-dollars for an individual or sixty-four-thousand-eight-hundred-dollars for two people.
