Re: "No guns" sign at Don Guanella park in Delaware County - where does this go?
There were some urban myths about that property.
The chop shop, cars from all over the county, once the operation was discovered, poof they disappeared over night, allegedly an unofficial relationship with some municipality

As of November 17, 2021 the county didn't acquire the property yet. To own it now was inexplicably fast. How did they go through the courts for eminent domain so fast?

Re: "No guns" sign at Don Guanella park in Delaware County - where does this go?
Email the parks and rec director or other party in charge (usually a google search will turn this info up) and use something similar to the letter I send when I see pre-emption violations. I've successfully had quite a few signs changed in different townships (and some requests ignored, admittedly).
Dear XXX,
While walking in the XXX Park today I noticed a pair of signs (photo attached) at that are out of compliance due to the line (#5) about prohibiting firearms. I wanted to let you know why this is the case and why it matters.
Pennsylvania's Uniform Firearms Act (UFA), section 6120(a), directs that "[n]o county, municipality or township may in any manner regulate the lawful ownership, possession, transfer or transportation of firearms . . . ." 18 Pa. C.S. § 6120(a).
Because the UFA does not specify any prohibition of firearms in parks, it is not legal for a township/borough to post a sign that states anything contrary to the state law. This section of the UFA is extremely important to law abiding citizens who carry firearms to prevent confusion and a patch work of laws across our state's many local governments.
Instead of replacing the signs, the line about firearms can be permanently covered. But as it currently stands, the sign (and any accompanying ordinance) is illegal and a detriment to people who legally carry firearms.
Please let me know your plans to address this issue. I appreciate your time! Feel free to get in touch to discuss more if you'd like.
Thank you,
XXX

Boisterous conduct! I take that as "no slightly loud having fun!"
No groups of 10 or more? What if two families of 5 get together?
