An Act amending Title 51 (Military Affairs) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, further providing for Fort Indiantown Gap; and establishing the Service Members, Veterans and their Families Fund.
HB 1264 allows the Pennsylvania Adjutant General to lease portions of Fort Indiantown Gap to private businesses or nonprofits that meet specific criteria. These businesses must directly benefit military personnel, veterans, their families, and the local community, with all revenue deposited into the new Service Members, Veterans and their Families Fund. The bill establishes clear selection criteria for lessees, prioritizing businesses offering services that support the military community and local residents. It also limits administrative or judicial review of leasing decisions to streamline the process. This bill primarily affects Fort Indiantown Gap personnel, veterans, their families, and local businesses seeking to operate on the installation.
