Advocacy in 2017

by Joe Neville, KTA Executive Director

We believe KTA will face the following issues in the upcoming year:

1. A proposal that would allow political appointees to make decisions on Public/Private Partnerships such as golf courses, water parks, office buildings and hotels by allowing private sector development in State Parks.
2. Sunday Hunting – the Pennsylvania Game Commission and National Rifle Association are planning a “major push” to revise the law to allow more opportunities for hunters to hunt on Sundays.
3. A regulatory change that would charge ALL users of state gamelands (hikers, birders, dog walkers, trail runners, etc.) a fee to access those lands and trails.
