Daly nominated for Sayre EMC

The Sayre Borough Council nominated Councilman Jim Daly as their nominee to replace the late Joe Sargent as the borough’s Emergency Management Coordinator (EMC). Jim is presently the council’s chairperson for their Emergency Management Committee and is presently the chairperson of the Valley Project Impact group.

Under Pennsylvania law, the governor appoints the EMCs for all levels of government. The borough will transmit the nomination to the Bradford County Emergency Management Agency, who in turn will send it to the regional PEMA office. PEMA will initiate an investigation and request a State Police check. When those actions are completed satisfactorily, PEMA will forward the nomination with their letter of recommendation to Governor Rendell. The time frame for these actions in unknown, but we can assume it will take as long as it takes.
