Through our promoter, Bay City Promotions, Erie International Airport will be hosting an airshow on July 15, and 16 of this year. Given the fact that this airshow has the potential to be a ve1y significant event, we are hoping that you would consider allowing this event to be the opportunity for the Erie Mwlicipal Airport Authority to re-name Erie International Airport to Erie International Airport, Tom Ridge Field. Additionally, we would welcome the opportunity for the Governor to serve as the event's Grnnd Marshall. While I am very excited about the upcoming airshow, I feel your approval of this request would make an already fantastic event even better.

The Governor has already authorized the state funding for this project. Since the city owns the zoo, it will be the applicant for the state funds. The match for the state funding will come in the form of federal money for the planned realignment of West 33th Street in front of the zoo's entrance. The money will be used to renovate existing exhibit areas and will provide new facilities for the new Asian one. Hotel-Motel Tax - Erie Convention Center Update - On March 15th, Erie City Council held a public hearing in which 44 people spoke, in either support or opposition of the hotel-motel tax. County Council must decide on whether or not to invoke or not the tax, allowed by legislation to third class counties, in which 80 percent of the tax goes to a convention center and the remaining 20 goes towards regional assets. There has been no set date for the vote on the tax.

  • The Pennsylvania Society in Its 112Th Year
    Annal of The Pennsylvania Society in its One Hundred and Twelfth Year Published Spring, 2011 Purpose of The Pennsylvania Society as set forth in the Year Book published in 1901 The Pennsylvania Society of New York was organized on April 25, 1899, and now numbers three hundred and eleven members. One hundred and thirteen members were added to the roll in the year 1900. Its specific objective, as stated in its constitution, is to “cultivate social intercourse among its members, and to promote their best interest; to collect historical material relating to the State of Pennsylvania, and to keep alive its memory in New York.” Its work thus falls naturally into two divisions. Its social side is maintained by the Annual Dinner and meetings held for social purposes. Its historical aim is expressed not only in the intent to collect historical material, but more especially by its purpose to keep alive the memory of Pennsylvania in New York. Even if the Society did no more than recall to its members the State from which they came, its great past, its wonderful present, the possibilities of its future, it would accomplish a good and useful purpose that would more than justify its existence. But the relationship of the Society to the State of Pennsylvania and to the country at large is much more important than this. The State that contains within its borders the Hall in which the Declaration of Independence was signed, and on whose soil the Battle of Gettysburg was fought, yields precedence to no other. Its early history, its wise and great founder, the active part its people took in the war for Independence, and the subsequent history of the Commonwealth, are among the most precious possessions of the American nations.

  • Homeland Security: Department Organization and Management
    Order Code RL31493 Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Homeland Security: Department Organization and Management Updated August 7, 2002 Harold C. Relyea Specialist in American National Government Government and Finance Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Homeland Security: Department Organization and Management Summary After substantial congressional entreatment, President George W. Bush gave impetus to the creation of a Department of Homeland Security when, on June 6, 2002, he proposed the establishment of such an entity by Congress. At the time, bills to mandate a department were pending in both houses of Congress, the Senate legislation having been recently ordered to be reported from committee. The President’s action was viewed as an effort to move beyond the coordination efforts of the Office of Homeland Security, established by E.O. 13228 of October 8, 2001, to a strong administrative structure for managing consolidated programs concerned with border security and effective response to domestic terrorism incidents. On June 18, the President transmitted to the House of Representatives proposed legislation to establish a Department of Homeland Security. It was subsequently introduced by request (H.R. 5005). According to a legislative strategy announced by Speaker Dennis Hastert and Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, the House would begin working with this proposal on an expedited basis. Plans called for an initial review and modification of the administration bill by the Committee on Government Reform and other panels having jurisdiction over homeland security matters, followed by a similar review and refinement of the measure by an ad hoc select panel under the leadership of Majority Leader Dick Armey.

  • 2020 Annual Report
    2 A MESSAGE FROM JEFFERSON PRESIDENT FERATI Dear Jefferson Supporters, s we head into a new year and a new decade, two words come to mind: AThank you. Without you, we could not do the work we do at the Jefferson. In 2019, that meant hosting more than 100 events at our headquarters at 32nd and State streets and at three offsite locations in Corry, Edinboro, and Fairview, where we launched our satellite programming (this year we have added North East). In 2019, that also meant producing two essays, two editions of the Journal of Erie Studies, and four of our new Jefferson Reports on timely issues – Erie’s reconnection with Zibo, China; updating the algal bloom threat, marking the first time a Global Summit speaker also contributed a written report; turning the focus to Erie’s food deserts; and outlining the real threat of losing minor league baseball. In 2019, our Global Summit speaker series also presented some of the nation’s greatest researchers and thinkers on cutting-edge topics, such as Jefferson President Dr. Ferki Ferati extraterrestrial life as seen through the eyes of Harvard University astronomer Avi Loeb, or an examination of today’s divided politics with Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist George Will. We were able to do this work because of your support. It’s that simple. Similarly, we are a nonpartisan organization, in thought and in action, because we know that is the best way for our community to achieve progress. The Jefferson continues to strive to be a center of learning, where critical issues are openly presented and discussed.
