Dilekçe şu kişiye hitaben yazılmıştır: Pennsylvania State Legislators

It has been over a year since the state announced that it would be closing SCI Rockview, putting into question the fate of thousands of acres. At more than 5,700 acres (slightly smaller than Bald Eagle State Park), the Rockview property is the largest in the Pennsylvania state prison system - and what happens to the land matters to all of us. 

Turning SCI Rockview into a state park would protect the property from private development while preserving the Spring Creek Watershed, along with creating more opportunities for outdoor recreation in the Central Pennsylvania region.

If elected, I (John Zangari) intend to introduce a bill in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives that will turn the SCI Rockview property into a state park. The process of creating a state park involves evaluating the needs of stakeholders, so this will both ensure that everyone gets a say about what they need (such as SCI Benner Township needing to retain their property) and preserve the rest of the land as a state park.

Gerekçe

In my point of view, we all know in our gut what will likely happen: the land will be sold off in sweetheart deals to politically connected developers. This land is too precious to be sold to the highest bidder, though. As Centre County Commissioner Steve Dersham said, “It is home to some of the largest and most pristine farmland and property in our community. I think there needs to be some very, very, very serious conversations…as to the outcome and the use of that property moving forward...I hope it’s not just a land grab and just go out there and figure out how we’re going to give this property away. I think we need to be thoughtful about it because this is the largest piece of property in the county that’s really unaccounted for.”

Desteğiniz için çok teşekkür ederim, John Zangari, Lewistown

Retaining and preserving forests and wildlife habitat

Pennsylvania has lost far too much open space to development and light pollution is getting out of control - we need more protected open space, especially in the face of the data center siege. Please permanently protect this acreage from development and allow it to return to a natural state and be made into a park for humans and wildlife alike to enjoy.

PA taxpayers built this facility and funded this land and the bulk of it should remain in the public's hands, providing access that has been restricted for over a hundred years.

It holds such historic value.
