Email I just sent to Waynesboro

[ray h]

Titled: Park ordinance in violation of state code.

"It has been brought to my attention that The borough of Waynesboro is in violation of Title 18, Chapter 61, subchapter A, subsection 6120, which states "General rule: No county, municipality or township may in any manner regulate the lawful ownership, possession, transfer or transportation of firearms, ammunition or ammunition components when carried or transported for purposes not prohibited by the laws of this commonwealth.” Waynesboro park rule and regulation #16 states "No firearms of any type shall be permitted to be carried or discharged in any park". Rule 16 is clearly in violation of state law and therefore is not legally enforcable and as such should be amended as soon as possible. This would benefit the borough by reducing the possiblity of an encounter between a city official wrongfully enforcing rule 16 and a law abiding citizen who is exercising their 2nd amendment rights while enjoying the borough's parks. As a courtesy, please keep me informed of any actions the borough takes in this matter.

Thank you,

They have an email for comments and complaints. I dont know who in particualr it goes to first.
If I dont receive a reply in a few days I will follow up with the counsil president, vice president and city manager.

I hope you get a better response than I do in my Home-town. I've sent two seperate emails to the Hatboro Town Hall with questions about local ordinances, and I sent them about 6 months apart... neither of them ever got a response.

Makes me wonder what I'm paying a local tax for... and then I remember we have a pretty damned good fireworks show every year.

I hope I do too. Ive got alot going on right now and dont need the extra crap of babysitting my local officials.
