The Sorace Administration is recommending Home Rule as a solution to help build a stronger, more equitable Lancaster. By adopting Home Rule, Lancaster could have more tools to control expenses and provide for other ways to raise revenues besides property taxes.

 

For years, Mayor Sorace, City and community leaders, have advocated for legislative change in Harrisburg to give more tools to cities like Lancaster to control expenses and provide for other ways to raise revenues besides property taxes. These advocacy efforts have not yielded any relief for Lancaster City residents who carry the largest tax burden in the County in contrast to other municipalities.
