Hummelstown
Please keep Hummelstown in the 106th district Here are three issues that the Borough sees with the proposed plan. I Stand behind my Borough and believe this is all for the better we need to stay in the 106th district 1. The most glaring concern is the Lower Dauphin School District which encompasses our High School, Middle School, District Administration Center, Emotional Support School, and one of five elementary schools has been removed from common representation and connected to the Harrisburg and Central Dauphin School Districts. 2. Derry Township and Hummelstown Borough have a long history of working collaboratively. Our continued growth is fostered by multiple economic and infrastructure improvements which are a result of common communities of interest. These projects help make Hummelstown a better place to live, work, and play and have a direct impact on the tax implications of our community. 3. This is not about moving a legislative district line, but rather it’s about taking away our community’s voice. There is a connectivity that exists and is celebrated with our surrounding communities. The local paper, The Sun, serves Lower Dauphin School District, Derry Township, Middletown, and communities to the east. By redistricting Hummelstown Borough out of the proposed 106 legislative district will result in a disconnect with information in our community. As a concerned citizens from our community, please oppose the preliminary redistricting map that has redrawn Hummelstown Borough out of the 106th PA House District.
