tm a a ; y The Dallas Post 3 Dallas, PA Wednesday, November 14, 1990 3 Mundy (continued from page 1) I've always wanted to be a judge. It's a goal I sought to achieve since I was a law student in college,” said Mundy. “I applied for formerJudge Podcasy’s position but I had no idea that I would receive the nomi- nation. . Mundy, formerly a resident of East End in Wilkes-Barre, resides with his wife, Rita and two chil- dren Maura and Hugh, on Lehman Avenue in Dallas. His daughter is a senior at King’s College, and his son is a sophomore at Notre Dame. His wife is a member of the faculty in the Dallas School District. Although Mundy has not played an active role in politics he has been active in many community ‘and civic organizations. He serves on the Board of the Boy Scouts of America, the Luzerne County Commission on Economic Oppor- tunity, the Disciplinary Board earing Committee of the state upreme Court and is a former member of Family Service, the United Way and Legal Services. Atty. Mundy started the Luzerne County Legal Services in 1970 and served as executive director. “I'm a registered Democrat but I have never been deeply involved in politics. I have been involved in community service and with fam- ily activities. I do believe that my experience, maturity and de- meanor will be an asset tome as a judge. I also served as an assistant district attorney under then Dis- trict Attorney Patrick Toole, now a judge. “He was my mentor then and, who knows, he may be again,” said Mundy. “I did organize the Luzerne County Legal Service and since I have been in the Back Mountain ['ve been involved in soccer and Little League and other youth ac- tivities which I believe should be beneficial. “I plan to talk with Sen. Charles Lemmond who is such a gentle- man and who had done so much for the Back Mountain. He is an outstanding person.” Mundy said his family is very supportive and delighted that he received the nomination. He also said if his nomination is confirmed he will have to give up his law practice.

The basic 911 system which the Back Mountain Comm Center will use is a type of forwarding system similar to speed dialing. “Our 911 will include the num- bers that have the first three digits as 477, 674, 675, 696 and 639,” Sabol explained. “All of our dis- patchers have been trained and we will go into simultaneous dispatch at the same time Basic 911 goes into effect. “If a call comes in for a broken arm or something similar we won't dispatch the medics but if it is a call for a heart patient, stroke or other critical injury or attack, the medic unit will dispatched, "Sabol said. also be “Our bylaws mandate that the | Back Mountain Communications Center must send out the message to the proper municipality. There are buttons on the console for fire, ambulance and police. If the municipality is not a member we will contact the non-member unit so they can dispatch their own unit,” Sabol explained. : “Association Public. Safety . Communications Officer Barney Dobinick and State Certified EMT John Ash have trained all of our dispatchers, full-time and part- time,” said Chief Sabol. “They will know how all systems work and how they need to be served.” Dobinick will work with the dispatchers as administrator. The full time dispatchers are Marc Bregman, William Alaimo and Charles Casey. Part-time dispatchers are Ger- ald Marsh, Chris Davis, Joe Bren, Frank Zieglerm, Doug Higgins, Brian Feeney and John Sheehan. Within the next few days we hope to name an acting chief dis- patcher,” Sabol explained. “It will be acting only, not permanent, we will move cautiously on that posi- tion.” : The Back Mountain Communi- cations Center will pick up the costs for the basic 911 which will be about $16 for each of the lines which run into the center. When the enhanced 911 goes into effect in Luzerne County, the Back Mountain Center will become a satellite center with the Luzerne County Communications Center forwarding Back Mountain calls to the satellite. The enhanced system could cost about $1.25 maximum on each resident's phone bill. If a resident. has more than one line into his residence, he would be charged for each line.

Snyder said that she has or- dered some other items for the office to help with its appear- ance. She is expecting a display case to help with the retail sales of stamp collecting items for the office. The office itselfis quite unique and adds to the splendor of the place. It measures only 148 square feet, which makes it one of the smallest in the country, according to the U.S. Postal Service in Washington D.C. A spokesman for the service said that post offices are ranked by the size of the office building. The smallest Post Office in the country is in Florida; it covers only 61 square feet. The smallest post office in Pennsylvania is in Rea ‘and measures a whopping 64 square feet. According to the Postal Service, this post office only has one customer.
