Westmoreland Redevelopment Authority & Land Bank Taking a leadership role to help build healthy and whole communities in Westmoreland County

The Redevelopment Authority of the County of Westmoreland (RA) and the Westmoreland County Land Bank (LB) has taken a leadership role to help build healthy and whole communities and reposition our towns by eliminating blight and its influences throughout Westmoreland County. Our work is carried out through blight demolition, residential and commercial rehabilitation, acquisition and repurposing of vacant and tax-delinquent properties, accessible and affordable housing, training and education partnerships, historic preservation, and brownfield redevelopment. Working hand in hand with local officials and like-minded organizations, these efforts will deliver more desirable communities in which to live, work, raise a family and prosper.

Today we say a bittersweet farewell to our Communications Intern, Bridget Joyce! 🎉

Bridget joined our team last fall and hit the ground running, bringing creativity, professionalism, and a great attitude! She's been an absolute pleasure to work with, and her contributions to our communications and outreach efforts have been felt across the organization.

We are so proud to see her heading into an exciting next chapter: continuing her Master's degree at Seton Hill University and growing into her role as Global Communications Specialist at the University of Pittsburgh. There are big things ahead for this driven young professional!

While we will genuinely miss Bridget, we thank her for her hard work over the past year, and we're cheering her on every step of the way! 👏

As students head back to the classroom, it’s a great time to remember that a child’s learning starts at home. A safe, healthy home provides an important foundation for children to learn, grow, and thrive. 🎒📚

Through Lead Safe Westmoreland, qualified households can receive no-cost services to identify and address lead-based paint hazards and other health and safety concerns in homes built before 1978.
