Do the insurance companies know about archery and hunting on the private properties? How do the insurance companies feel about this? Here is the comment, which I have copied and pasted:<br /><br />"I would First Like to Thank Mrs Elaine Gillen, God Bless you!!! I hope you run for Office some day cause i for one will be there for you to help in anyway i can.. Keep up the Good Work.. I do have a Couple Questions for the MT Lebanon Commissioners or the Almanac Staff. Who is responsible if someone shoots a Deer (most deer will run up to a Mile after being Shot) and the deer panics and runs into the Road and Causes a Major Accident? Also, All of the Homes and Properties that are Allowing Hunting on their land, Do their Insurance Companies Know about this? Does their Insurance even cover this if there is an Accident on the Property? Has Mt Lebo Ever even looked into any of these issues?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-64884155247476487622015-11-26T07:25:07.179-05:002015-11-26T07:25:07.179-05:00Nov. 25 8:00 PM --

So if/when people hunt on those lands, it probably will not be with respect to those larger 150 yard zones for guns. So this is a significant difference and why people have the right to know.<br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04119671459324598804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-79817376326224691632015-11-25T20:00:35.903-05:002015-11-25T20:00:35.903-05:00It sure is interesting that Witold, from the ACLU,...It sure is interesting that Witold, from the ACLU, cited a right to privacy for homeowners as a reason their identities shouldn't be shared. If a municipality is paying for your service, why should that be private? If the resident is paying out of his/her pocket, I agree that if all laws are upheld, they get that right. However, this isn't a "hunt" -- it's a deer cull paid for by the municipality with nuisance wildlife controllers in management positions -- that we supposedly "need" on behalf of public safety.<br /><br />TBT: http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/hunting-fishing/2015/10/04/Details-of-Mt-Lebanon-deer-hunting-remains-private-by-law/stories/201509300108Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-32468518933424302202015-11-25T16:38:21.906-05:002015-11-25T16:38:21.906-05:00I never could understand Kristen LinFante.. where ...I never could understand Kristen LinFante.. where in the hell did a Viola player who grad from the Julliard have her main agenda to kill off all the deer in mt Lebanon.. ?? who was pulling her strings.. and these people must of been the same who wanted CV as her replacement... all I can say is good riddance..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-30164718187601283772015-11-25T13:13:04.504-05:002015-11-25T13:13:04.504-05:00I wonder if there's any provision in the rtk l...I wonder if there's any provision in the rtk law that could mandate an expedited turn around in the interest of public safety??<br />Congrats Elaine and thank you so much for all your time and effort on making Mt Lebanon moved toward transparency, which it has never embraced as part if its governance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395310382514169324.post-68224524512425554772015-11-24T21:20:44.278-05:002015-11-24T21:20:44.278-05:00Wow!
