PaOHV Alert-PaOHV Seeks Mobilization in Northwest   [posted 7/1/2009]

 

PaOHV has been advocating before the Oil City Borough Council as it considers an anti OHV ordinance.   This onerous measure would by definition prevent anyone owning an off highway vehicle within borough limits from servicing or loading the units.   Thus, the borough is effectively banning ownership of OHVs by borough residents.   This ordinance is a significant infringement on property rights and is uneforceable under its current language.

 

The Oil City Borough Council will meet on Monday, July 6, to consider this measure again.  It is PaOHV’s understanding that the ordinance may be amended on Monday.  We are told that a final vote will not take place until July 20; however, this is not promised or assured.  Final action may take place on July 6.

 

See the ALERTS section for more detail and Action instructions.
