Of all the land the county and state own there has to be a more suitable place than behind the library.

I support a range of different location. The proposed location would not be beneficial to any neighboring facilities.

I’m a resident of Bradford County and I think this is the worst idea ever.

Library users have a right to peace and quiet.

How will the people at the library know if there is an active shooter threat or just people practicing with tactical weapons outside?

As a patron of the BC Library and a resident of W. Burlington Twp. I am not in favor a shooting range at the library. Also, I've always been under the impression that there were plenty of shooting ranges in Bradford Co. Are there an adequate number? Is there an issue with using the current shooting ranges? It seems that the addition of a shooting range would be a burden to the BC tax payer too. Is there a supporting study showing that this proposed shooting range by the BC Commissioners is going to be self supporting?

The children’s area in the library has a window and a door with a beautiful view of the land behind the library. A shooting range isn’t something I’d prefer my children see when they visit the library.

All of the reasons I've read raise concern. The biggest for me would be the Alzheimer's/ dementia patients living at the Bradford County Manor. I worked with those patients and something like ongoing gunfire could cause so many issues. Not only for the patients, but the staff as well.

Financially, building a new shooting range is not fiscally responsible use of my taxpayer dollars when there are many other ranges already within our county that would be better suited for upgrades to meet the needs of law enforcement. Also, the proposed location is a horrible idea, that close the the library, nursing home and jail which could trigger PTSD and other health concerns for those in the Manor and BCCF.

Wrong place to put a shooting range.

Towanda Borough has a range on Bridge St. hill for cops, no reason the County can't share that one. Cheaper and far more practical than building one at the County library. And did I say cheaper too?

We already have a shooting range at the old dump. I see no reason for a new one in a different, more populated area.
