A local petition drive organized by Hornell Mayor Shawn Hogan and Deputy Mayor John Buckley, in partnership with the local “Save Our Hospital Committee,” remains underway.

By signing the petition, area residents can help send a message: the Hornell region needs and deserves a community hospital that retains comprehensive services, including at least limited inpatient and maternity services.

A link to an online copy of the petition (and additional information) is available on the City of Hornell website (scroll down the home page to the “Save Our Hospital” heading) to print out and have signed: http://www.cityofhornell.com/
