Currently the city of Lancaster has no public skateparks in the downtown area. I'd love to see a plan to build a series of free, concrete, outdoor skateparks in underutilized parks in the city (think Reservoir Park on the east side, Farnum and Brandon Parks on the south side). By building multiple smaller parks throughout the city, it would impact more communities, while also working to prevent overcrowding. On top of giving city kids and adults a place to go, it would also boost tourism, and bring more people to underutilized parks, making them safer throughout the day.

I am a professor from Walden University and have taught at the local community college and note that there is overwhelming support for a local health department. The need is overwhelming and local residents have been calling for this over a decade. And yet these calls have not been heeded even after the need was repeatedly demonstrated during the pandemic. So many people suffered due to lack of adequate resources, coordination efforts, lack of access to food banks.. A Franklin & Marshall College poll from March of last year found overwhelming and widespread support among Lancaster County residents for a county public health department There are 67 counties in Pennsylvania and of the largest seven, all but Lancaster County and Delaware County have public health departments, and Delaware County is preparing to launch one. Creating this is only real way to ensure equitable access to healthcare for the residents of Lancaster County in an everchanging possibility of futures.

We could use your help in Clinton county trying to plan for growth while balancing and protecting our natural resources. Looking at reviewing our ordinances and thinking about long range planning. We are a heavy ag township with some industry (slaughterhouse and a couple other entities). Anyone you can recommend?

Congestion on Rts 30/222 are nightmares! We commute weekly to Maple Grove for duplicate bridge. Relocating and keeping doctors in the Reading area is a priority. Going any farther than 772 is not in our thinking. The Oregon Dairy planning is right up our alley for its proximity to Reading. I do realize that there are concerns for the surrounding folks already living in the area.
