Public Hearing in Harrisburg
Tuesday, March 16th, 9:30am
Ryan Office, Room #205, Second Floor
Pennsylvania House
Local Government Committee Hearing
RE: Billboard Control in PA
Representative Bill Adolph
(Marple & Springfield)
HB Bill 2085
Representative Bernie O’Neill
(Southampton)
HB 1237
WHAT TO EXPECT?
The Committee will hear from the Representatives, key witnesses, experts and Committee members will have the opportunity to ask questions. This Committee will, ultimately, say “YEA” or “NAY” to whether this legislation goes any further. Private residents will most likely NOT be given a chance to address the Committee, but a hearty audience will:
Provide motivation for the congressmen to “sell” their legislation to the Committee
Make an impression on the Committee that a groundswell of constituents are “mad as hell and not going to take it anymore” with no intention of “going away”!
Utilize this rare opportunity to carry our message to people whose opinions can make a difference.
