HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania government agency may soon get more flexibility about what to do with the former official residence of the lieutenant governor, located on a military facility. A bill passed unanimously Tuesday by the state House would change the mandate that the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs use the State House at Fort Indiantown Gap as a veterans’ outreach center. Because that would be too costly, the bill would let the agency find another use for it and establish a veterans’ center in a more practical location. Current Lt. Gov. John Fetterman declined to move into the home when he was elected about three years ago, proposing it be put to some public good.
