Mosquito Lodge study enters next phase

WARREN — Trumbull County commissioners will be asked to contribute $15,000 to the next phase of the proposed Mosquito Lake lodge and water park.

Alan Knapp, director of the county planning commission, said he has met with William Letson of Trumbull 100, a community group that works to revitalize Trumbull County’s economy, and other proponents of the idea. They have identified several sources they hope will contribute money toward the $50,000 next phase.

Knapp said he will prepare a report to the commissioners in the coming weeks seeking their support.

Lodge proponents are also hoping to get $5,000 from the city of Cortland, $5,000 from the Western Reserve Building & Construction Trades Council, and $5,000 from the Trumbull County Tourism Bureau. Another $20,000 would come from Trumbull 100.
