2022 Annual Convention

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the BCATO 114th Annual Convention. We were joined by Commissioner Bob Harvie who provided a brief update on the Opioid Settlement and what it means for our county and municipalities. Joe Gerdes of PSATS delivered an extensive legislative briefing on a multitude of bills that may have an impact on local government.  Our panel discussion focused on the state of EMS in Bucks County. We would like to offer our deepest gratitude to our panelists for spending a Saturday morning with us. Thank you, Rep. Frank Farry (PA-142), Audrey Kenny, Director, Bucks County Emergency Service, Larry Loose, Director Bucks County Medical Service, Evan, Resnikoff, President Bucks County EMS Chiefs' Association, and Diane Rosati, Executive Director of Bucks County Drug and Alcohol Commission. The membership voted on a slate of Executive Board candidates. Returning members, Maggie Rash, Dave Nyman, Dick Weaver, Barb Lyons, Vince Deon,  Bill Jones, Fred Gaines, Judith Algeo. Chester Pogonowski and Kathy Babb are joined by newly elected members Tom Cino and Jim Hopkins. 

Following a robust debate, the membership voted on several resolutions to be forwarded along to PSATS.
