{"ogc_fid":"71","community_name":"Bethlehem Township 18020","community_description":"Bethlehem Township includes 18017 and 18020 zip codes and share one Township Municipal governing body. Since 2010, a small part of 18020 was removed from District 135 and placed into District 138, which, from an administrative standpoint, makes no sense. Until 2010, the entirety of 18020 was in District 135. The current State Rep for 138 has stated that it is difficult to figure out which areas fall into 138--and the majority of that constituency is in a more rural area north of where I live, with different business, recreational, and geographical issues. I am sure it is frustrating for Township officials as well. This was all part of a gerrymandering scheme to garner more Republican votes, as District 135 has traditionally been center Left. In all the newsletters of the previous and current 138 reps, never do I see any participation in 18020 activities. The 138 District office is nearly 10 miles from this area, vs the 135 District office is 5 miles away and half the time to get there. It is also in an area that citizens of the township are more likely to be traveling near as part of their daily lives. I would like to see all parts of 18020 restored to District 135.","cdate":"2021-08-06 21:07:08+00","geomjson":"{\"type\":\"MultiPolygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[[-75.315107058,40.669508985],[-75.314308986,40.670786494],[-75.294396266,40.666229358],[-75.315107058,40.669508985]]]]}"}
