Legislators announce $2M redevelopment grant for Bucks County’s Klover SEPA, Inc.

Pennsylvania Sens. Bob Mensch (R-24), Pat Browne (R-16), and Rep. Craig Staats (R-145) announced Friday that Klover SEPA, Inc., was the winner of a $2 million state redevelopment grant.

The company was awarded the grant for its Northfield Lot 3 manufacturing expansion and will fund the construction of a fully air-conditions crane-served industrial land condominium with an energy efficient air rotations system.

“As our region continues to emerge from a pandemic-ravaged economy, it’s important to bring these tax dollars back to the area to create jobs and provide economic stability,” Mensch said. “I’m happy to join my colleagues in announcing this critical investment in Bucks County.”

The funding is part of the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program administered by the Office of the Budget, which helps organizations acquire and construct regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational, and historical improvement projects.

“Light manufacturing, especially companies like Klover, continue to play a vital role in the Pennsylvania economy by providing good-paying jobs and diversifying our economy,” said Browne, Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee. “I am honored to join my colleagues in announcing this state investment, which will help to expand Klover’s facilities, capabilities, and positive impact on our region.”

Officials said the grant will help the company expand and provide jobs in the greater Bucks County area.

“We are proud and honored to have been selected for this grant to assist us in continuing to create jobs in Richland Township and the Greater Quakertown Area,” said Jerry Kilhefner, President of Klover Contracting, Inc.
