Massillon and Steese Roads Roundabout
The City of Green closed the intersection of Massillon and Steese Roads on June 8 in order to complete the construction of a Roundabout. This new intersection will be safer and better equipped to handle the flow of traffic. The intersection will be open to traffic beginning in late August.

Stimulus Funding
The City of Green has been working hard to secure funding for road and sewer improvements to make Green a more business-friendly community, through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) and other local programs. Thus far, the City has been awarded $2 million in stimulus funding for the Arlington Road corridor improvements in addition to funding already allocated for the project from other sources. The City is also seeking direct state and federal appropriations for additional capital improvement projects such as the Massillon Road Sanitary Sewer Project, reconstruction of roadways within Interstate Business Park and the expansion of the CAK International Business Park. |
Permits
Make sure the City of Green Zoning office is your first stop to obtain Sign Permit Applications for wall or temporary signs. The Zoning Office also issues Certificates of Use and Occupancy, which are required prior to the occupation of commercial structures. Certificates must also be obtained whenever a business changes ownership or when a full or partial change from one business use to another occurs.
