An Act authorizing the Department of General Services, with the approval of the Governor, to grant and convey to the City of Hermitage, certain lands situate in the City of Hermitage, formerly known as Hickory Township, Mercer County.
SB 1347 authorizes the Pennsylvania Department of General Services to sell approximately 7.92 acres of former National Guard property to the City of Hermitage for $920,000. The sale includes specific land boundaries and improvements, with the transaction subject to existing easements and potential new restrictions determined by the state. A key provision prohibits the city from using the land for any licensed facility, such as an alcohol or tobacco establishment, with the property title reverting to the state if this rule is violated. The bill also mandates that the city pays all closing costs and that the sale proceeds be deposited into the State Armory Fund.
