LETTER: Requests names of Alliance members
“Would you please publish the names and addresses of the members of the Lancaster Alliance? I would greatly appreciate knowing who has sold us down the river and I believe many other people would also be interested in knowing.”
Editor’s Response: According to the Lancaster Post which obtained the information from public filings, the list is as follows: Armstrong, Barley Snyder, Burnham Boiler, Core Source, Ecklin Group, Economic Development Co., Engle Hambright and Davies, Franklin & Marshal, Fulton Financing, High Industries, Irex, Lancaster City, Lancaster City Police Foundation, Lancaster Community Safety Coalition, Lancaster County, Lancaster General Hospital, Lancaster Newspapers, Millersville University, PP&L, RR Donneley, Steinman Foundations, UGI, Wachovia
However, the differing amount of financial support is perhaps more significant than the membership, because there appears to be a distinct corellation between funds given and amounts of federal and state grants directly or indirectly benefiting the members.
