Borough Department of Land Management is inviting all Borough
residents to give their input regarding future planning and
development of Borough owned land. A Land Nomination is a method
the Borough has created to organize and receive recommendations for
potential uses such as, development and public sale, retention,
public parks, schools, or similar uses. The Land Nominations and
Land Sale programs’ goals are to sell a quantity of land that is
compatible with market demands and fosters the growth of our
community. In order to ensure this program is satisfying the
public’s needs, we welcome your participation.
A
brochure is published
annually that contains maps and pertinent information to identify
Borough owned land available for nomination and includes a
nomination form. Meeting the needs of the public is a priority of
the Program, therefore it is very important that you, the nominator,
fully understand and clearly state the actions you propose for the
Borough.
You may notice land throughout
the Borough that appears vacant but is not listed in the report.
There are many possible explanations for this but some of the
primary reasons vacant land exists within the Borough is because it
has been set aside for public use, such as schools, parks, emergency
services, flood control, or it may already be in the planning
process soon to be available at auction or for sale.
More detailed information can
be found at the Land Management office at the Borough Administrative
Center.
