Side Lots - Blight Removal and Beautification

Since 2012, the Butler County Land Bank has been a steadfast partner in the rejuvenation of Butler County Communities by spearheading the removal of blighted properties. Numerous properties in Hamilton and Middletown have been successfully sold or leased to local residents, who have worked to enhance the quality and maintenance of these “side lot” properties. 

Below are before and after pictures showing how blight can be transformed, in Hamilton’s Arnondale, Lindenwald, North End and Prospect Hill Neighborhoods.
