Bill > SB467

This bill authorizes two distinct land transactions. First, it allows the release of Project 70 restrictions (a state land conservation program) on approximately 48.639 acres of land owned by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission in Allegheny County, in exchange for imposing Project 70 restrictions on 28.741 acres of land owned by the West Mifflin Borough. The land being released from restrictions is currently part of the Turnpike Commission's property, and the land receiving the new restrictions is owned by the local school district. Second, the bill authorizes the Department of General Services to sell a small approximately 1.16-acre parcel of land (500 feet long by 100 feet wide) in Tuscarora State Park to the White Birch Golf Course and Restaurant for $1, with strict conditions that the land cannot be used for any licensed facility and will revert to state ownership if this condition is violated. The land has historically been used as a parking lot for the golf course. The bill requires that all standard easements and existing rights be maintained, and any proceeds from the sale will be deposited with the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
