Projects and Initiatives
Allegheny Together
In the fall of 2019, Mt. Oliver Borough was one of two communities to be accepted into the 2020 cohort of the Allegheny Together Program. This three-year program starts with developing a comprehensive main street plan by working closely with community stakeholders, then provides on-going technical assistance to help implement the plan.

Mt. Oliver Neighborhood Partnership Program
The Mt. Oliver Neighborhood Partnership Program (NPP) is a six-year state tax credit program where corporations with high state tax liability commit to investing dollars in a community. In return, a portion of that investment can be applied towards their state tax liability. The workplan for the Mt. Oliver NPP is a balanced mix of place-based commercial revitalization strategies, housing stabilization, and human services, to deliver a truly comprehensive approach to community development. Our proud sponsors for the 2015-2020 cycle include:
- Highmark
- Dollar Bank
- First National Bank
- Fifth-Third Bank
- Huntington Bank
Our partner organizations that are integral in assisting us to deliver the services outlined in the work plan include:
