GDG- Water Park proposed for Gettysburg

[JIM COOKE]

A similar article appeared in the Hanover Evening Sun on Wednesday:

Apparently the township does not have a zoning ordinance that will address the issue, although who would have conceived of such an issue when the zoning ordinances were written? A concert hall is also planned for the site, and the article also contains a distressing remark by some ignoramus about not wanting "people from the inner city" in their township. It's pretty hard to  ignore the racial overtones in such a statement. The same person is quoted as expressing the fear that residents will "become nauseous from the noise" coming from the concert hall. He's right; I am becoming nauseous, and the place isn't even approved yet.

The front page of today's Harrrisburg newspaper has an article on proposed 200-acre indoor water park that would be larger than Hersheypark.
