This eminent domain seizure of afamily owned farm to make it into a park is very controversial in my area.

Local government officials and one of three county commissioners, Republican Steve Chronister are resisting.

But two commissioners, one a Democrat and the other a RINO are pushing the eminent domain seizure.

Most importantly, the brother of the head of this group trying to build the park is Republican Congressman Todd Platts (19th District-PA). Big liberal campaign contributors are on the board of the Lancaster-York Heritage Region trying to grab the land and build the park.
