Lancaster County has $2.6 million it doesn't know what to do with. The funds are left over from the sale of Lancaster Manor. Now we just need to figure out what to do with it. That's a nice problem to have.
County Commissioner Ray Stevens would like to see the money go to a foundation that will provide community-level funding on an ongoing basis. It's hard to be against something like that. On the other hand, $2.6 million could go a long way toward solving one or more problems now. Or we could drop property taxes, an always popular move.
If it weren't so expensive to pull off, I'd say we give every person in Lancaster County a $10 voucher (I rounded) that they can only spend in Lancaster County. Our own little stimulus! It might could work. Or maybe it would be a disaster. Hey, there are no bad ideas in a brainstorming session, remember?
Anyway, what would you have Lancaster County do with its $2.6 million?
