The Blanchard Valley Port Authority is an important tool in Findlay-Hancock County Economic Development’s toolbox. The BVPA has helped local Economic Development partners deliver over $500 million of capital investment and hundreds of new jobs in our community over the past decade. The BVPA can assist qualifying projects through a variety of programs including construction financing, ground leases, property sale/transfer, construction management and other programs.

The Hancock County commissioners endorse the Blanchard Valley Port Authority for the economic advantage it provides to the businesses that are locating or expanding in our county. This tool gives our economic development team an advantage over many other Ohio counties.
