The following are the next three letters in a series that are being sent to the General Assembly regarding construction codes
and the need to roll-back to 2006. This correspondence is currently posted on the PBA website
as well as the PBA Facebook page.
Please do the same by putting them on your website or Facebook page if you have one. The more we get the word out – the better
our chances. Check back often... as letters are sent... they will continue to be posted.
Please contact me at 717.979.8321 if you have any questions.
