                                  AN ACT

     Authorizing the lease of lands acquired in connection with the
        acquisition of toll-bridges over boundary waters to boroughs
        and townships for park purposes.

        Section 1.  Be it enacted, &c., That whenever the
     Commonwealth shall acquire any toll-bridge across any of the
     boundary waters of this Commonwealth, and shall thereafter
     maintain such bridge, it shall be lawful for the Board of
     Commissioners of Public Grounds and Buildings to enter into a
     contract, with any borough or township wherein the approach to
     such bridge is located, leasing to such borough or township any
     lands acquired in connection with the acquisition of such bridge
     which are not required for highway purposes. Such lands, when
     leased to any borough or township, may be used for public park
     purposes only, under such regulations as may have been imposed
     by the Board of Commissioners of Public Grounds and Buildings in
     the lease.
