Montrose, PA - The Board of Directors and hospital leaders from Endless Mountains Health Systems [EMHS] were joined by members of the community in a ceremonial groundbreaking on a massive construction project to build a new 25-bed state-of-the-art medical facility in Montrose. The new, three-phased hospital project represents the largest and most expensive expansion in health care services in the Northern Tier.

It wasn’t a regular boro council meeting; merely a regularly-scheduled committee meeting to get the nitty-gritty of boro work done. Nevertheless, at 6:59 p.m. on Tuesday, January 24, Susquehanna’s boro council came together - and went - into executive session almost immediately. That executive session was to take personnel action. And the personnel action it decided was the hiring of Attorney Michael Briechle to serve as the boro’s solicitor. In so doing, boro council completed action on an issue that had been tabled at its reorganization meeting of January 3, and the boro’s first regularly-scheduled meeting on Tuesday, January 10.

To recap those earlier meetings, January 3’s meeting saw the swearing in of the new boro council to include newly-elected Roberta Reddon (formerly Kelly), Roy Williams, Paul Barnes, and Deborah Zayas; as well as re-elected Allen Wolf. Sue Crawford and Joe Varsik are holdover council members. In their reorganization Ms. Reddon was elected Council President; Mr. Williams Vice-President; and Mr. Varsik President Pro Tem. Also approved was a “motion to change the monthly meetings to the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month, with the Council Meeting being the second Tuesday of each month.” Meetings will continue to be held at 7 p.m.
