The Mannik & Smith Group, Inc.

Brandon Sehlhorst was honored as 2024 Economic Developer of the Year by the Ohio Economic Development Association (OEDA). Congratulations, Brandon Sehlhorst! We appreciate your contributions to the economic growth of the City of Toledo, Ohio. Brandon's accomplishments include a series of projects that improve the quality of life for residents while supporting business growth and attracting new jobs. His notable projects include the North Towne Mall and Southwyck Mall redevelopments, as well as a number of grant projects focused on strengthening Toledo neighborhoods. The award was the perfect capstone to the OEDA conference, recently hosted in Toledo for the first time.

At MSG, our co-ops get hands-on experience. Jared Bruner shows co-op, Trevor Schroeder, how to fly one of our drones in Detroit, Michigan. Trevor spent the summer as a co-op in the survey department at the Maumee, Ohio office. Trevor contributed to several projects, including the redesign of a Bowling Green State University parking lot and the EOLM Landfill, where he assisted in providing essential capacity information to the client for their annual license. Additionally, for an industrial area within Detroit, he analyzed point cloud data to identify containment berms for tanks, which were then transferred to Civil 3D for further analysis. Trevor’s favorite aspects of working at MSG were the people he met and the supportive work environment in the office. Trevor wrapped up his co-op and is beginning his sophomore year at Saginaw Valley State University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. #MSG #Summercoop #Survey #MechanicalEngineering

By thinking strategically about remediation and redevelopment, the public- and private-sector can work together to turn brownfields into booming economic drivers for Ohio’s communities. At the Ohio Economic Development Association (OEDA) Summit on September 5th, Aaron Clapper, Greater Ohio Policy Center, Brandon Sehlhorst, City of Toledo, and Sally Gladwell, MSG, will highlight successful brownfield remediation and redevelopment case studies, and how once-in-a-generation investment from the state and federal government has opened the opportunity to think bolder about the redevelopment of Ohio’s blighted parcels. #Brownfields #FinancingTools #OEDA #GOPC #TOL #MSG #GlassCity
