September 15, 2026

HARRISBURG – Rep. Jason Ortitay (R-Washington/Allegheny) today announced he secured more than $2.08 million in Local Share Account (LSA) grants from the Commonwealth Financing Authority (CFA) for five projects in the 46th Legislative District.

Act 71 of 2004 provides for the distribution of LSA gaming revenues through the CFA to support projects of public interest within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

“I collaborated closely with local officials to move these projects over the finish line,” Ortitay said. “They tackle real needs in our communities – from infrastructure and public safety to redevelopment – and this funding will make a visible, meaningful impact. In addition, thank you to Sens. Devlin Robinson and Camera Bartolotta who partnered with me to secure some of the funding.”

Municipalities receiving funds are:

• Canonsburg Borough – $104,025 to construct restroom facilities in the Canonsburg Town Park.
• Houston Borough – $983,665 to construct a new municipal building.
• Houston Borough – $120,691 to purchase a dump truck with upfits.
• Mount Pleasant Township – $399,569 to purchase six new police vehicles for the Washington County Regional Police Department.
• South Fayette Township Municipal Authority – $441,000 to purchase a camera truck and associated equipment for routine inspection of sanitary and storm sewers.

The 46th Legislative District includes South Fayette Township and McDonald and Oakdale boroughs in Allegheny County. It also encompasses Cecil, Chartiers, Mt. Pleasant and North Strabane (Districts 6,7,8 and 9) townships and Canonsburg, Houston and McDonald boroughs in Washington County.
