It will be made possible through the resourceful combination of public financing and philanthropic investment from generous supporters.
Voters in OTC’s taxing district made the decision in April 2018 to invest in the Robert W. Plaster Center for Advanced Manufacturing by approving a five cent property tax increase. OTC is building on this with a capital campaign led by the OTC Foundation.
