About us
A relatively small city of 7 square miles and 60,000 residents, Lancaster City is located within driving distance of Washington DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Delaware beaches and the Jersey shore. But the City of Lancaster is about so much more than our geographic location. Lancaster City is a place where historic preservation and a cutting-edge arts scene live and thrive side by side; a city of neighborhoods that are safe and welcoming; a city that encourages entrepreneurship and investment; a city that values the cultural, ethnic, and diverse identities of our residents and guests.

Through the Healthy Lives, Healthy Lancaster effort, City teams have done outreach with partners serving Lancaster's youth like the Boys & Girls Club and YMCA. We heard from kids that they have concerns about litter found on city blocks. They also have a lot to say about pedestrian, biking, and traffic safety—wanting to feel safer as they navigate the city. Pedestrian and traffic safety are regular topics we hear when we ask how to make Lancaster a healthier city. What does a healthy Lancaster City look like to you? Take a 10-minute survey and let us know. ➡ healthylancaster.org/ And you can learn about our pedestrian and traffic safety efforts at visionzerolancaster.com. #healthylanc #visionzerolanc

Over the last several months the City of Lancaster Home Rule Study Commission has worked through drafting the Home Rule Charter and tackling one topic (Article) at a time. As the Commission developed each Article, its draft was posted and available for public review. On August 1, the Commission made final decisions on the last three charter Articles (Budget and Finance, Ethics Commission, and City Council). A full draft is now available for public review and additional feedback. If you weren't able to attend an information session or the public hearing, you can submit your feedback online. ➡ The full draft is available to review at https://lnkd.in/eBpmEXqa ➡ Review the summary comparison document at https://lnkd.in/eXyu2SSE ➡ Submit feedback in English or Spanish at https://lnkd.in/eANtRtPT See all Home Rule information at https://lnkd.in/edKwScaN

Last week, Mayor Sorace, along with Rep. Smith-Wade-El and Commissioner Yoder, met with Lt. Governor Austin Davis at the Bench Mark Program in Lancaster. As part of the new state budget, the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime & Delinquency (PCCD) is investing in more violence intervention and prevention programs, such as the ones offered by Bench Mark for local youth. “Gun violence has no place in Pennsylvania. In Lancaster, our Officers are getting illegal guns off the street, and community organizations like Bench Mark are leaning into youth engagement in new ways. I am pleased the Shapiro-Davis Administration and the PACCD are equipping Lancaster with more tools to keep our community safe. Curbing gun violence must be an all-hands-on-deck effort," said Mayor Danene Sorace. Read more at https://lnkd.in/epMaxvhw #cityoflancasterpa #safeplaces
