No political party ever more richly deserved the national repudiation that the Republicans just got. The party that is is devoid of policy ideas other than “cut taxes for the rich, payback, and unleash the billionaires;” unleashed a reign of terror on our streets; participated in the most grotesque and open acts of corruption ever
By Stan Clark Veterans Day is the day set aside to honor those who have served our Country’s fighting forces. It was originally called Armistice Day in commemoration of the temporary cessation of hostilities between the Allied nations and Germany at the close of World War One. This occurred on the eleventh hour of the
By Gleb Tsipursky Gettysburg College described its new AI initiative at a September faculty meeting https://gettysburgian.com/2026/09/faculty-meeting-9-10-center-for-student-success-and-writing-center-updates-ai-policy-and-committee-motions/: the first year focuses on learning and exploration, after more than 30 summer workshops. That’s a sensible start. Now students and local employers need a way to tell whether that learning leads to better judgment. An October Gallup study
As we approach Halloween, it is worth looking at the origins of the celebration and how it became such a popular annual event in the United States. The story is an interesting journey into the mists of time. Halloween owes its origin to the ancient Celtic celebration of Samhan of over 2000 years ago, intermingled
After an extensive and acrimonious discussion concerning the compensation of an assistant principal whose duties have nearly doubled due to the board’s decision to not replace a resigned administrator, the UASD turned to hiring a new business manager. Following no discussion at all the board approved the current assistant business manager to the open position.
By Kiely Fisher, Eastern Regional Manager, Adams County Library System I’ve recently been considering why I chose to become a librarian. It’s not entirely a love of books, although that definitely inspired the decision. Running a story time stresses me out and program-planning is not my passion. Collection development – the process of selecting and
I have spent way too many years, especially when I was pastoring, trying to save people from themselves. I still care deeply about others. Seeing another struggle and suffering is painful, consequently, I am still willing to go the second mile, but I am no longer willing to invest a lot of energy and resources
You’ve heard the saying, “Watch what they do, not what they say”. Let’s review a couple of Rep. Moul’s votes and actions to see how they compare to what he says. Moul recently voted against the Digital Ad Tax (HB 1678), which would help seniors by extending the State’s 5% sales tax to online advertising.
By Jess Shelleman People are always asking me what I’ve read recently and what I’d recommend, mostly at work, but also sometimes in my “real life.” It’s always a difficult question to answer, because what I’ve been reading recently may not be what I would recommend to the other person. I read a lot of
This accusation that Democrats are the anti-capitalists is particularly bizarre. There is indeed a politician who rejects Adam Smith’s system that replaced the mercantilist structure of colonies, state monopolies, and tariffs with free markets guided by “the invisible hand” and rational self-interest. His name is Donald Trump. And John Joyce and Dave McCormick support his
Do we understand what is happening to costs and the administration of our healthcare system because of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1)? On January 8, 2026, 16 House Republicans joined the Democrats in voting for a three-year extension of the Enhanced Health Insurance Tax Credits (EHITCs), but Senate Republicans allowed EHITCs to
I have been a Republican my entire adult life. With the exception of Donald Trump in 2024, I have voted for every Republican candidate, supported conservative causes and believed deeply in the principles that traditionally defined the Republican Party. Over the past decade, however, I have watched the party drift away from those principles. Today,
As an Irishman who has lived in the United States, I am constantly looking out for examples of how the two countries are linked. There are many. Interestingly, my research has revealed that Adams County is linked with the County of Armagh in Ireland through both counties’ mutual association with apples. Adams County has its
The weather here in Adams County has been October perfect. Chilly nights and sparkling days are just warm enough to be comfortable. My friend and I walked this morning, both of us soaking in the glorious day, the flowers and trees and gentle mountains that encircle our little town. After she left, another friend stopped
Gettysburg balances its identity as both a historic town and a living community. This November will showcase our extraordinary place in American history and the vibrant community we are today, with Lincoln at Gettysburg: Shall Not Perish from November 16-19 and Live on Lincoln Square on November 20. For over two years, nonprofits, local and
Yesterday, during our discussion group, we studied the Matthew text where the Pharisees and Sadducees tried to trick Jesus by asking whether it was lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, a loaded question in a time of hated Roman occupation. Jesus, as was his wont, replied with a question. “Whose image is on the coin
Dear Voter, As your candidate, I am honored and privileged to run again for the office of US Representative for Pennsylvania’s 13th Congressional District. It means everything to me to be a voice in Congress for our precious Democracy, Reproductive Freedom, Affordability, Gun Safety, Public Education, Universal Healthcare, Immigration Reform, the Environment, and more. And
Iowa Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Josh Turek, who calls himself a “common-sense” moderate Democrat, has centered his campaign around — as he puts it — “cost, corruption, and cancer.” On cost, he promises to focus on bringing down the high cost of necessities for Iowans, like groceries, gas, electricity, rent, car insurance, and health insurance.
Future military readiness depends on more than weapons and equipment. It requires young people who are ready, willing and able (both physically and mentally) to serve. It is therefore troubling that according to the U.S. Department of Defense, 77 percent of young Americans aged 17 to 24 are currently ineligible for military service, with obesity
Main Street Gettysburg and the Gettysburg Borough Council have released the description of events planned for Remembrance Day this year. Organizers went all out this year in celebration of the 250th anniversary of our country. A steam locomotive will arrive from York on November 18. An actor will portray Abraham Lincoln, arriving at the historic
Public and corporate boards of directors provide strategic direction, ensure legal compliance and oversee the Chief Executive. They have no management responsibilities. The Upper Adams School Board has never understood that. At Tuesday’s meeting board member Matt Lustig provided the quintessential example of what boards are not supposed to do. Presumably because he wasn’t paying
What are educational foundations? Athletic boosters? PTA/O? The answer is neither. Educational foundations are IRS 501(c)3 nonprofits that exist to enhance public school districts’ programs. Let’s look at Canner Educational Foundation. In the depths of the Great Recession the necessary Upper Adams School District (UASD) budget cuts were affecting the educational experience of students. A
As we settle back into our Adams County home following a summer in Ontario, we are increasingly appalled by the harm done to Pennsylvania by President Trump’s new trade war on Canada. The obvious economic harm accompanies unwarranted diplomatic damage. Governor Shapiro recently pointed out, “Canada is Pennsylvania’s largest trading partner.” Imposing 50% tariffs on
“Kick the Can” was a popular game during the ’40s and early ’50s. The game reminds me of what could happen with the Adams County trade school discussions. I had the pleasure of working on a county trade school committee during the early ’70s, representing Gettysburg Area School District. After approximately 18–24 months of discussion
Gettysburg Rising’s Rise Above Plastic campaign recognizes Waldo’s and Company for their efforts to reduce Single Use Plastic and provide a more environmentally sustainable beverage experience. Waldo’s mission is “to educate and benefit the Gettysburg community through the arts while advocating for local artists and providing a substance-free, creative environment.” Located at 17 Lincoln Square
The celebration of our nation’s 250th anniversary should be a time of universal pride for the accomplishments of our country. For many in the current climate, however, that pride is tempered by a deep concern for the state of our democracy. I find myself asking how our country can best protect itself from political lies
What do guns, cars and cigarette smoking have in common? They all have created public health crises. What did we do as a nation to reduce auto deaths and discourage smoking? We took action, such as enacting requirements for seat belts, child car seats and airbags. We required that the Surgeon General’s warning be posted
I support the proposed Adams County Technical Institute (ACTI) Land purchase. This effort was not done in a vacuum, ACTI and the ACTI Authority have been working together since 2024 to identify a suitable plot of land. At the ACTI meetings I have attended in the last 18 months they would report the number of
In 2024, HARB reviewed the proposed Gettysburg Station project. No fences were included. I asked why the new Transit Station was not also being reviewed. Mr. Harrison said it would be designed later. It appeared as a simple rectangle with a U-shaped loop until 2026. I have commented that fences on both sites should require
The political right has done a good job of brainwashing reasonable Americans to be afraid of any hints of socialism by equating socialism with Stalin’s communism. Yet democratic socialism is a very different economic system than Russian communism, which we can see working in most of postwar Europe. FDR’s response to the stock market crash
I was able to watch part of the Planning Commission meeting on July 20, 2026 on YouTube. It was hard to hear the developer and his engineer because they were sitting in the audience, not at the table with the microphones. There are some potential impacts stemming from moving the Transit Station from Carlisle Street
Eisenhower was a moderate Republican. He created the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and supported federal funding for low-income housing. Nixon started the Environmental Protection Agency. Reagan signed the Simpson-Mazzoli Act as a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Today, I wonder if they’d be elected in a time when their initiatives are being
In the cascade of irresponsible lies emanating from the Trump White House, the Republican accusation that the Democrats are becoming “communists” stands almost alone in its devastating irresponsibility. These charges carry reminders of “red scares,” blacklists, McCarthyism, and “are you now or have you ever been?” questions. These charges are more than a reminder of
June has come and gone as Pride Month, and this past weekend we marked America 250. Looking back, I find myself thinking of what this community built together this year. On behalf of the board of Gettysburg Pride, I want to say something simple and heartfelt: Thank you, Gettysburg! Ten weeks before this year’s festival,
The time is long since passed for a reckoning – with the bloated, out-of-control defense budget. Even at the height of the Cold War, DoD spending was always a matter of intense debate and DoD always had to make tradeoffs. You want nuclear weapons? Great, that will let us reduce conventional forces. Even during President
The election of Zohan Mamdani as New York City’s first Muslim Asian American mayor has the radical right clutching their pearls. Social Democrats winning Democratic congressional primaries since then has sparked even more plotzing among Fox News viewers and Trump Party (a.k.a. the former Republican Party) loyalists. Those on the right claim falsely that Social
WE PEOPLE who care about preserving the future historic integrity of Gettysburg are now at a crossroads. Here is the simple question under consideration. Do you support ‘Contemporary Design’ or ‘Historic Design’ for new buildings and additions to existing buildings within the Gettysburg Historic District? Currently, buried deep within the bowels of the Gettysburg Code
Madam President, There is a festering decay bordering on corruption eating away at UASD and it started with a disciplinary action over two years ago. Dr. Wesley Doll was the Superintendent when this disciplinary incident happened. The district hired outside counsel to investigate this incident, which found the district’s actions were validated but within months
Well, we tried to warn MAGA, but the inevitable just happened. For the first time ever, the United States of America unconditionally surrendered and for the first time since “Millions for Defense, but Not One Cent for Tribute,” we are paying tribute to an Islamic power to release hostages – though the hostages this time
I’m old enough to remember when Trump promised to “drain the swamp” in his first term. I remember a MAGA relative of mine endorsing that promise. I thought she was, perhaps, naïve, but agreed with the laudable goal. As a retired attorney, I like evidence and facts. Let’s review those in relation to Trump’s promise
Hate crimes and gun violence are back in the news recently with the deadly shooting at a mosque in San Diego. Whether the target is religious, ethnic, racial or marginalized groups, including LGBTQ+, the use of a firearm makes the attacks significantly more deadly. Unfortunately, violent extremists often have no difficulty obtaining lethal weapons in
The purpose of this letter is to generate meaningful public participation toward amending what I believe are two grossly inappropriate provisions in Chapter 11, subsection 11.110 of the Gettysburg Historic District Ordinance. This ordinance, currently under review by the Gettysburg Historic Architectural Review Board (HARB), will be an item for discussion and consideration at their
I’ve been re-reading Isaac Asimov’s sci-fi classic, The Foundation Trilogy. While we often read that the classics 1984 or Farenheit 451 or Brave New World forecast our future or present, I’m surprised I haven’t yet read anything that notes the eerie similarity between our present fix and Asimov’s “fiction.” Neither Orwell nor Bradbury nor Huxley
Representative John Joyce is a doctor and has repeatedly professed his devotion to the health and healthcare coverage for his constituents. He posted the following statement on his web site. As a doctor who practiced medicine in Pennsylvania for over 25 years, Dr. Joyce came to Congress to improve Pennsylvanians’ access to quality and affordable
Ten or twelve years ago, I was in a Virginia Beach hotel ballroom listening to a young female professor explain the “browning” of America.” This concept states that coming demographic changes will result in whites becoming the nation’s new minority. This would change future political outcomes, potentially in favor of Democrats. “This will NOT go
Along with the long-since abandoned beliefs in “judicial restraint” (Republicans now applaud the most radically activist Supreme Court in the nation’s history) and “fiscal restraint” (Eisenhower was the last Republican president who EVER experienced an annual deficit smaller than the one he inherited), let’s add “federal over-reach” to the discarded set of once-core conservative beliefs.
In 1946, when the US Public Health Service and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) were created, life expectancy was about 66 years. Thirty four out of 1,000 children born in 1946 were expected to die before their first birthday — most from communicable diseases. Since that time the nation embarked on a
Upper Adams School District April 21st meeting was a debacle, creating unsafe and unwelcoming conditions amidst teacher negotiations. The meeting was held in the UASD board room, which was inadequate space for the Board members and more than 50 teachers that attended. After teaching classes all day, many of the teachers had to stand, and were
Given the Trump Administration’s deep desire to look good, I was amazed that the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) recently released the first report ever on residential utility disconnections. Why? Because the report does not shine a positive light on Trump’s argument that the economy is strong, and on his claims that the high cost
Gettysburg residents are being misled—plain and simple. The images presented of the proposed Station Project and the “transit station” on North Stratton Street distort scale and perspective to make an overbuilt project look small, open, and compatible with its surroundings. It is not. These visuals are not honest representations; they are marketing tools, a carefully
This June, the current teachers’ contract at the Upper Adams School District expires. As both a parent and taxpayer in the district, I am writing to inform the community, pledge my support to the teachers, and state my hopes for a quick and fair resolution to the negotiations. As a parent, I have seen firsthand
St. James Lutheran Church in Gettysburg welcomes people of every sexual orientation and gender identity. We publicly affirmed this welcome by becoming a Reconciling in Christ church in January 2016. Our pastors and congregation live this welcome. With that in mind, we offer this response to the recent statement by State Sen. Doug Mastriano. Our
It was the second year of the Clinton Presidency, a sweltering summer, when in the month of July 1994, I visited to the town of Gettysburg and its famous Civil War battle site. It was a time when the ‘Washington Consensus’ was at its peak. The Soviet Union and the communist regimes of Eastern Europe
I have had the privilege of getting to know Kathleen Pratt over the past few years, since moving to the area. Watching her run a fair and honest campaign for the school board, ultimately getting the most votes of any candidate, was inspiring. She is now running to represent the 91st district as a State Representative
DFA, Patricia Shoap If you’re like me, you probably haven’t given much thought to the unitary executive theory. It sounds like an obscure intellectual think-tank idea. But hear me out. This seemingly opaque theory helps explain some important developments in our country. Like the willingness of the Republicans in Congress to surrender powers to the
Recent comments by John Rice, a member of the Borough Planning Commission, regarding the Gettysburg Station project are concerning. While the project is currently under review, Mr. Rice described it as essentially inevitable—suggesting it is a “done deal” and that “the train has left the station.” That characterization is simply not accurate. By Mr. Rice’s
Col. Nathan Jessup’s line “You can’t handle the truth!” from “A Few Good Men,” is one of my favorite movie quotes. Who other than Jack Nicholson could deliver such a line? It makes me ponder “How much truth can my fellow Americans and I handle?” Truth has always been hard to find, particularly in politics.
Many people in the county are wondering what is going on with the Gettysburg Station project and how the plans are progressing. On Tuesday evening, the Borough Planning Commission hosted a presentation by the project developer and a couple of his main assistants. This is what was discussed. After three years since the basic plan
In light of the recent situation involving the arrest of Mayor Chad Carr and the appointment of a new mayor, it is reasonable for the public to question what vetting and oversight exist for those placed in positions of authority within our borough. In the most recent mayoral election, a key distinction between incumbent Rita
Gettysburg has been the subject of public notoriety in the past year, most recently with the resignation of the newly elected Mayor due to criminal charges by the State Police. For TV, press, and social media, this will be a recurring topic. The same exposure happened when the Borough Manager was charged with a DUI
Military operations are intended to support national strategic purposes. In the case of Epic Fury, the administration has not communicated clearly to the nation what that purpose is. In fact, since the start several purposes have been proffered, resulting in confusion as to why the nation is attacking Iran. An argument can be made that
I feel very fortunate that I’ve reached the age where I qualify for Medicare. Although Medicare can be improved upon, with a monthly amount taken out of our Social Security payments and an additional monthly fee for each of our Medigap supplemental plan G policies, our total annual costs out-of-pocket is $8653.92 assuming we each
Few people would argue that the Ayatollah was not a brutal dictator who repressed his people and supported terrorism. The people of Iran are undoubtedly better off without him. Or are they? To evaluate the long-term results, it is necessary to consider: (a) whether this will improve the lives of the Iranian people; (b) whether
To the Editor, I would like to applaud the work that Tara Zimmerman and Rachel Hastie, Gettysburg Area School District (GASD) Family Navigators do for our community. In addition to their regular duties helping families navigate educational, mental health and community services, they have been hosting the series “Coffee and Conversation.” The almost monthly event
By Eric Meyer What starts out as something pretty routine can sometimes lead you down a rabbit hole. We recently circulated an interesting article among the board members for Healthy Adams Bicycle/Pedstrian, Inc. (HABPI) about how bicycling can help fight dementia. It was a well-written article from what seemed to be a reputable cycling news
Editor’s Note: This is a transcript of a presentation by Rachel Elliott during the public comment period at this week’s Upper Adams School Board meeting I want to start off by giving my thanks and great appreciation to Shelley Hobbs, Joe Albin, and Courtney McCreary. Their input into the grants, budget, and curriculum are invaluable
For almost a decade, over 6,000 Pennsylvania volunteers, led by Fair Districts PA and their allies, have been doing the hard, unglamorous work democracy demands. Collectively, they have sustained a statewide, citizen-led effort to reform the redistricting process and end the gerrymandering, legislative hyper-partisanship and dysfunction that has increasingly failed to meet the mounting challenges
All across the state, residents and businesses have been facing rising electricity and utility bills. One thing that can help Pennsylvanians save money is improving energy efficiency, so that they’re not paying for energy they don’t need. And as an added bonus, increasing energy efficiency can help protect our environment and health at the same
After years of writing columns mainly about environmentalism or gun sense, today I need to address what makes it possible to work together on either topic. Without a system based on the rule of law, the work we do to save lives through environmental and gun sense policy and legislation goes for nothing. We are
The news this morning wasn’t good. Climate regulations rolled back, nuclear arms tests, ICE controversies, Epstein files. That’s to say nothing of the blatant “slap in the face” delivered to America by the nefarious Bad Bunny. We can go round and round concerning what can be done at this critical juncture in American history, but
With the “Economy and Affordability” top issues for Americans, it’s appropriate to give President Trump a grade on the economy Hint: it won’t be the A plus plus he gives himself. A January 2026 AP poll shows only 37 percent of Americans approve of President Trump’s handling of the economy, down from 40 percent earlier
In moments when our system of government seems to be unraveling, it is natural to let anxiety and fear for the future take over. Don’t be scared—be prepared! History has shown us that when the state infrastructure starts to fall apart, it is local communities that quietly hold life together. It begins by strengthening the
Violence is taking place in our streets as citizens protest the actions of masked government agents. We tend to quickly take sides. Some support the agents; some support the protesters. Positions harden. We feel justified becoming more conservative or more liberal. We no longer seek facts and truth. We just know we’re right. The agents
Dear Senator McCormick, Your vote essentially put Pete Hegseth in charge of the Department of Defense….Despite his proven traits as a drunk and philanderer. Republican senators Collins, Murkowski, and even McConnell voted no…but not you, despite your West Point education and military service. Since then he’s “distinguished” himself on Signal chats in which he shared
Two recent pro football incidents demonstrated how screwed up our priorities are in punishing bad behavior. Steelers’ wide receiver DK Metcalf was suspended for two games without pay in December after a physical confrontation with a fan. In January, wide receiver Alec Pierce was ejected from the Colts’ season finale for accidentally “bumping” a field
Americans can be very generous. Here in Gettysburg, our community gave $4.3 million in our local Spending Spree this year. Many of us engage in additional charitable giving at the end of each year. But we can only do so much on an individual basis. For example, it is estimated that for every meal donated
When Adm. Alvin Holsey relinquished his command Dec. 12, , it was amid growing criticism of attacks that began on his watch. Since the first U.S. strike on an alleged drug smuggler in September, the United States has carried out over 21 attacks in international waters, killing at least 81 people. The Department of Defense disclosed recently that the first
Jermaine Fowler, author, historian and founder of Humanity Archive, helped me realize two important thoughts for this moment in U.S. political history. 1. President Trump is temporary, but legislators’ voting records are permanent. 2. Love him or despise him, Trump changed our lives and the way we view government. Trump follows the well-worn playbook of
“If you build it, they will come.” This is an often quoted line from an old movie. But it isn’t always true. State College used to look very much like Gettysburg with 2-3 story buildings. In 2010 their Planning Commission voted 5-2 against an 8 story apartment building. Quoting from the website StateCollege.com, Charles Gable, who
To the Gettysburg Borough Council members, Council should not immediately rezone the properties in the revitalization district West of Carlisle St. to allow 72 foot heights. Furthermore, this important vote on the comprehensive zoning reorganization, whatever its outcome, should be held after the first of the year when new councilmembers have been seated. Six story
In April 1775, Lexington and Concord Massachusetts, saw the beginning of the Revolutionary War between the thirteen colonies and Great Britain. Concord Bridge witnessed “The shot heard round the world”. These battles were smaller and of less duration than Gettysburg, but of great significance to American history. In 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted,
During the 2026 budget presentation, Gettysburg Borough Manager Charles Gable shared a chart showing annual surpluses or deficits from 2016 through 2024. The Borough recorded surpluses in eight of those nine years, resulting in a combined positive balance of $2.8 million. In simple terms, revenues exceeded expenses in nearly every year during that period. A
It is difficult to imagine what the organizers of the cemetery dedication expected when they belatedly invited President Lincoln to make “a few appropriate remarks.” After all, Lincoln’s reputation as an orator was primarily based on his political debates during his campaign for the White House. However, if they did think about it, a few
The “Big Beautiful Bill” has negatively impacted Medicaid and SNAP benefits, harmed national and state economies, and increased pressure on state budgets across the country. I discuss here the additional pain and hardship that would affect people who can only afford health insurance thanks to Enhanced Health Insurance Tax Subsidies (EHITS), subsidies designed to
Every November 19th is a big day here in Gettysburg as we observe Dedication Day. This is a series of events preceded by the Remembrance Day Parade the Saturday before, and including Wednesday’s wreath-laying ritual, Naturalization ceremony, keynote speaker, recitation of the Gettysburg Address, and lighting of luminaria, culminating with the Gettysburg College Fortenbaugh Lecture
Upper Adams has long been known for its close-knit community and commitment to helping every child succeed. Now, we have the opportunity to strengthen that legacy with a Dual Language Immersion program beginning in kindergarten. Extensive research shows that students in dual language programs not only close the achievement gap but often outperform their peers
Everyday Americans like you – the hard-working families, the retirees on a fixed income, the young adults just making your way, veterans, college students, or anyone who is not ultra-wealthy – suffer for the unjustified benefit of the millionaires and billionaires. Since 2009 the federal minimum wage has remained at $7.25/hour – about $15,000 a
By Mike Mathis, Fairfield There’s a lot of discussion about what the ‘Founders’ intended in the Constitution. E.g. just what is ‘freedom of speech’, ‘the right to bear arms’. I would suggest a look at the Preamble for guidance: “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish
Showing Up For Our School Board Two “Get to Know the School Board Candidates,” forums were held this fall, one at the college and the other at the seminary. Given the importance of the GASD school board elections, you would assume all of the candidates would show up. But three of the eight candidates not
The Adams County Community Foundation traces its beginning to 1985 when the Rotary Club of Gettysburg established a charitable organization to build a permanent charitable endowment and promote philanthropy in Adams County. From that very humble beginning we now have an organization that manages 350 charitable funds, a community grant program that awards grants to
I am writing to express my strong support for my friend Rita Frealing, candidate for Mayor ofGettysburg. I’ve known Rita since our early days reporting news for WHP-TV, serving central Pennsylvania. Shewas an inspired journalist who covered many areas, including city, county, and state politics. Ritagathered, wrote, and delivered her stories with confidence, accuracy, and
By Richard Barvainis The Gettysburg Borough Council is considering adoption of a new zoning ordinance (set of regulations) covering the entire borough, and will be holding a hearing on October 27 for public input on the plan. There are several important changes relative to the current ordinance, one of which has potentially far-reaching consequences for
In September, Gettysburg Borough Council discussed the proposed Rezoning ordinance. Mr. Moon stated that Borough population decreased between the 2010 and 2020 census – implying that our population is declining so we need to attract more people. The 2020 Census was lower due to Covid and the fact that students were not here. Gettysburg is
