The Battle at Gettysburg

Months ago a slot machine parlor was proposed not far from Historic Gettysburg – but nothing has been finalized yet. Each side is fighting to win, the proponents think it is the perfect spot for slot machines, opponents think it is outrageous that anyone would consider desecrating the area with something as seedy as gambling. So far, no winners.

The Straban Township Zoning Board has had another hearing on the location, which is roughly four miles east of the battleground. The supporters spoke as did the opponents, and each other heard each others arguments once again. This time it was in reference to a traffic study that had been completed. The opponents are afraid that the new slot machine parlor would block the battlefield, and want it to remain the sacred place that it is. They think this is of national importance, not just a local or state issue to be handled.

The Crossroads Gaming Group is not worried about their objections. They think they have “an excellent case” and are confident the slot machine parlor will be passed. There will be another hearing in mid-September to discuss the issue even further.
